TMDP/FMDP Containers EARLY MARKET ENGAGEMENT AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI)

Tender description

The requirement is to support the TMDP/FMDP Containers (Tactical Map Dissemination Point (TMDP) and Forward Map Distribution Point (FMDP) Containers). The TMDP provides a small reproduction capability for geospatial products, storage for a limited number of physical products and a library function for mass-electronic geospatial information. Each TMDP container is equipped with a management system, 1 x A3 scanner, 1 x A0 scanner, 1 x A3 printer, 2 x A0 plotter and a DVD replicator. The FMDP container is a large open plan storage facility for storing and making up map packs. Support for the internal management system is already in place and not subject to this support contract. The FMDP container is combined with a TMDP container to create a FMDP capability. The containers are not a complex item of hardware. The list below should suffice in providing the necessary support contract requirement. - Recertification Container: In accordance with International Convention for Safe Containers (CSC) 1972 the FDG containers will require recertification to ISO 1496 every 30 months or after major repair and inspected to BS7671 annually. - This will be on an ad-hoc where the Authority does not have the avaible resources to conduct the inspections. - ACU system: Maintenance/Repair of ACU systems if no tradesperson within the Authority is competent/qualified. - Fibre Optics: Repair/Replacement of the fibre optic systems used in relevant container platforms. - Repair: Structural/Integral repairs to the frame of the container (including CES items) as a result of extensive damage requiring structural and/or mechanical complete strip and rebuild. Please contact Ryan Giblin (Ryan.Giblin101@mod.gov.uk) in order to receive a questionnaire, which will be required to support this RFI.
