- Framework
- An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.
- Open for bids / closing date
- You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
- Clarification questions
- A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
- Conditions of participation
- What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
- Bids are scored on
- How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
- Lots
- A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
- Area (ITL)
- The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
- UK4 and other notice codes
- Official codes for the type of notice. A "tender notice" means bids are being invited.

Description
The aim of the Mast and Towers Contract is to ensure that the structures are managed in order that the MCA’s obligations for the UK’s Maritime Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) mandate and all other maritime requirements are met; by ensuring that these freehold sites/structures are safe and any changes to them meet recognised safety standards.
The Supplier will be responsible for all aspects of management of the MCA’s existing mast and tower structures to ensure that:
• they are maintained and remain safe in accordance with current and emerging safety requirements
• that access safety systems meet these safety standards for any authorised person having reason to access the structure, and reasonably practicable security measures are identified to prevent unauthorized persons from accessing the structures.
