X-Ray Cabins - PA 23

Tender description

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has a requirement to maintain a transportable X-Ray Cabin capability, for use by the Non-Destructive Testing [NDT] Teams of 71(IR) Sqn and 1710 NAS. Therefore, there is a requirement to procure a Servicing/Maintenance and call-out Repair capability for the X-Ray cabins, by the Air Commodities Delivery Team [ACDT], which is part of the Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S) of the MOD. The requirement is for the in-service support of nine transportable Radiographic Exposure (X-Ray) Cabins. This will include the on-site repair and annual servicing of the X-Ray cabins, including the provision of an annual Electrical Installation Report [to comply with electrical safety regulations BS 7671], the annual I-beam [max 100kg] inspection [in accordance with Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER)] Report, and an annual Structural Assessment Report. To sustain the capability, MOD is exploring potential future solutions, that will underpin the defence and security of the UK in the future, and as such is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to industry. The objective of the RFI is to understand the capacity and capability of the industrial base to support this capability requirement. Please respond by emailing your copy of the RFI to des-deca-mst-procurement@mod.gov.uk. Please send any queries about this market engagement exercise to: des-deca-mst-procurement@mod.gov.uk. The RFI document is attached in the Opportunity listing.
