Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd (CMAL) wishes to improve the Marine Evacuation system on board on the MV Argyle, MV Bute and MV Coruisk.

This specification covers the supply and installation of a Complete Marine Evacuation system to include Shute/Slide, life raft and associated bowsing-in arrangement. The evacuation point will remain on the car deck. The supplier is to survey vessel and suggest solutions with regard to arrangement with current design and operational constraints. The timescale for this years dry-docking is tight however CMAL are keen to conclude work at this dry-docking period.

Details of the vessel can be found in the appendix to of this specification.

CMAL (The Owner) will purchase equipment for free issue to Calmac Ferries (The Operator) who will fit the system during their docking period starting 28.10.2015.

This Specification covers the design and operational requirements for a ships Marine Evacuation System (MES) comprising slide and raft system.

The MES shall comprise a boxed or Open Evacuation slide system with associated bowsing-in and winching arrangements for associated rafts for the required passengers and Crew on board. It has to be designed for ease of installation without the need for any major structural modifications for its installation. Evacuation will be from mini slide from the car deck area.

The MES shall comprise a control station locally and associated master control on the bridge to minimise tampering and accidental release.

The MES will have the ability to be launched locally at control station with the minimum of crew and with ease of operation.

It is desirable that the operation is as far as practicable automatic with minimum intervention during the deployment time. Transferring of personnel from one raft to another will only be required for max carrying numbers but it is hoped on majority of occasions to utilise the cartridge held life-rafts only.

Work shall include supply, delivery to site, installation, site testing, commissioning, and making good any defects that occur during the defect liability / warranty period, provision of as fitted drawings, operation and maintenance and training documents, the whole of the labour and all materials necessary to form a complete operating installation. Any modifications required by third party such as the MCA and shipyard will need to be highlighted.

The work shall include planned preventive maintenance and service cover required as per required frequency stipulated by LSA Code.

All equipment and materials to be installed shall be new. At initial launching and demonstration, arrangement will be required for replacement rafts following the test.

The Contractor shall ensure that all equipment can be installed in the allotted space and ensure that there is adequate access for operation, maintenance and repair.

All equipment shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations and MCA guidance notes as applicable.
