Provision of Technical Support Services for Tendering Design for Compliance and Science Vessels

Marine Scotland are intending to have a tendering design developed with a view to procuring a new vessel in the near future and as a result wish to develop a tendering technical specification and its associated plans for the new vessel which will be used as part of the tendering documents for the shipyards. The project will be split into a number of discreet stages, though an iterative approach to the project will be imperative, for example, as follows: A. Review and development of Statements of Requirement(s); B. Feasibility Study for fuel/powering arrangements; C. Conceptual GA (General Arrangement) drawing; D. Hull design and powering; E. Deck and equipment arrangement; F. Accommodation arrangements; G. Wheelhouse layout; H. Machinery arrangements; I. Displacement calculations; J. Lightship weight estimates; K. Stability calculations; L. Review; M. Resistance, power, sea keeping, environmental noise and maneuvering modelling; N. Development of full technical specification for design and build tender; O. Regulatory and Class assessment and check; P. Estimate of build costs; Q. Preparation of plans, drawings and documents for design and build tender; R. Assist with the evaluation of build bids, including yard visits; S. Design and drawing approval during design and build contract; T. Provision of supervisory staff throughout the build and trials stages at shipyard (working with Marine Scotland Staff).
