Planned Vessel Maintenance - HMC Searcher MSER

This is a well-structured planning notice providing early information about an upcoming vessel maintenance procurement, effectively preparing potential bidders for the full tender expected in late February 2026.

The notice clearly defines the procedure type and CPV code, and adheres to transparency requirements for a pre-procurement announcement. While full legal compliance can only be assessed with the complete tender, this initial notice is a good practice.

The description is clear and unambiguous, explicitly stating its purpose as a planning notice. High-level requirements are understandable, though detailed criteria are appropriately deferred to the full tender.

Basic information, estimated value, and key timelines are provided. However, full technical specifications, detailed eligibility/exclusion criteria, and evaluation criteria are intentionally missing as this is a planning notice. The exact regional location is also pending.

The early publication of this notice, coupled with the requirement to register on an eSourcing portal, promotes broad market access and allows ample time for potential bidders to prepare. The value is disclosed, and requirements are not overtly tailored.

Electronic submission is supported via a provided portal URL, and key dates like contract start and duration are clear. However, the absence of the full tender documents and specific regional location reduces immediate practical planning capabilities.

All provided data points are consistent and logical, accurately reflecting the status as a planning notice. There are no reported disputes or suspensions.

No specific green, social, or innovation criteria are mentioned in this planning notice. This is a common omission for maintenance contracts of this nature and value.
