Provision of Marine Cleaning Chemicals

Description

The Scottish Ministers invites tenders for the supply and delivery of all marine chemicals and substances to our five vessels. Lot 1: High Concentration Marine Cleaning Chemicals The Scottish Ministers invites tenders for the supply and delivery of all marine chemicals and substances to our five vessels. The Scottish Ministers own and operate three patrol vessels and two survey vessels that operate in the waters around and beyond Scotland. As part of the day-to-day operation of the vessels, a variety of chemicals are used across each department onboard for cleaning and degreasing. The Scottish Ministers have a communal fleet store in Aberdeen. It is expected that deliveries will be made to the fleet store in a timely manner, to be forwarded to each of the designated vessel by our own stores team. The fleet store does not have capacity for storing an annual supply of chemicals for all five vessels, thus this will be divided into smaller partial requests. In addition to this, the supplier shall supply the chemicals in container sizes as close as reasonably practicable to those specified, taking into account the limited storage capacity on each vessel and the requirement to distribute the total quantity across multiple vessels as part of the delivery arrangement.
