4. Description: The Maritime Equipment Transformation (MET) team Now re-rolled as Marine Systems Support team as part of the Ships Operating Centre (Ships OC) previously advertised the requirement however due to organisational changes the Switchgear element was placed on hold. The Authority is now in a position to continue and in order to maintain a competitive field now offers for consideration the following updated detail.
Submarine switchgear covers, but is not limited to, low voltage AC and DC switchboards (including reversionary controls and protection modules), Load Centres/Distribution Panels and Switchgear fitted to RN Submarines. Legacy generally refers to Whipp & Bourne and Lawrence Scott product fitted to T & V Class Submarines. New to service covers A Class Switchboards (including Reversionary Controls and Protection modules), Switchgear, Distribution Panels and Load Centres. For Legacy equipment, OEM support is fragile or non-existent and therefore significant assistance will be required to continue with current configuration or provide a long term “retro-fit” option. The support contract will take the form of a Spares Inclusive Upkeep Support Model .
