Tender description

Orkney Islands Harbours Marine Services is seeking to commission the delivery of a Remotely Operated Vessel (ROV) survey of an area of the seabed in east Scapa Flow. The observation-class ROV should be capable of being deployed from a small vessel that will not be anchored or have dynamic positioning. The ROV should be sufficiently powerful, and the pilot appropriately skilled, to be able to follow a series of agreed transects over the survey area. Through-water positioning of the vehicle at the seabed (ideally sub-metre accuracy georeferencing) is also required.

About the buyer

Construction works are sourced through a Dynamic Purchasing System open to approved contractors. Smaller purchases are assessed directly by individual council officers, with formal written quotations sought above a lower threshold. Suppliers must also meet a sustainable procurement policy covering environmental and social standards.

Over the past 5 years, most of Orkney Islands Council's contract awards have been in repair and maintenance, transport equipment and architectural and engineering services.
