## About this tender

Service, Repair, Calibrate, Supply and Manage Spares for Otto Fuel Monitors (OFM) Mk2. Further details below. Quantity or scope: The Authority has a requirement for Services, calibration, repair and maintenance of OTTO Fuel Monitor (OFM), including spares provision. The OTTO Fuel Monitor (OFM) Mk2 is a hand held instrument designed to monitor for the presence of OTTO vapour in Cat C environments, in the event of fuel-leaks from Torpedoes. OFMs are used to monitor the atmosphere where Spearfish Torpedoes are stored and processed, this includes DM Beith and on board submarines.

OTTO fuel is toxic and relatively small concentrations can cause respiratory problems, headaches and nausea. Continued use of the OFMs is required to ensure the health and safety of personnel operating/maintaining the Spearfish Torpedo, and to ensure the continued safe storage and processing of Spearfish torpedoes.

The OFMs require calibration after 6 months of use. The current holding of OFMs and Desensitised Otto Fuel Monitors (DOFMs) is 110 units.

The contract will be for 5-years to commence quarter 1/quarter 2 2022 (subject to change), with one 2 year option. The Contractor is required to conduct an initial survey and calibrate and/or repair the in-service OFMs and DOFMs as and when they are returned from Defence Munitions (DM) Beith. There will also be a requirement to complete project management activities and management and delivery of spares as required. An additional tasking element shall provide the Authority with a means to request project activity outside of the core element, at additional cost.

The Authority will use the DPQQ to invite a maximum of four (4) suppliers to Tender. You must be successful at the DPQQ stage to be invited to Tender.

In the event that two or more suppliers are tied, and the tie would increase the number of invited suppliers to more than four (4) the Authority reserves the right to invite more than four (4). The DPQQ will close on 18th May 2021 at 12:00, no further expressions of interest will be considered after this date.
