WHAT THE BUYER SAYS THEY NEED

This procurement is required to ensure continued statutory compliance, maintain safe operational use of gangways and associated accessories, and provide a consistent and auditable approach to inspection and certification across the network. Failure to maintain suitable examination and certification arrangements may result in equipment being removed from service, operational disruption, increased safety risk, and potential non-compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.

  • Published participation instructions: https://www.publictendersscotland.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk

Published deadline has passed.

WHY RADAR THINKS PURA MAY FIT

No specific Pura delivery capability is established by this notice alone. This is a Pura hypothesis; detailed scope, delivery capability and procurement constraints still need checking.

Confidence: MEDIUM — notice scope only

Known: the saved buyer requirement above.
Inferred: potential Pura capability match; not buyer-confirmed.

What still needs checking

  • Detailed workflows and acceptance criteria
  • Integration and security requirements
  • Direct contact permission and procurement constraints
  • Proof effort and bounded paid discovery acceptance

  2. — Radar last recorded source evidence.

HUMAN CHECK

Official source available: YES
Radar fully expanded source: YES

Key facts verified: deadline, contact, route, stage — according to saved evidence; check current source.

Outstanding verification

  • Detailed workflows and acceptance criteria
