In plain English

Trinity House needs the data acquisition hardware replaced at its light measurement facility in Harwich, which tests marine aids-to-navigation lights for the General Lighthouse Authorities, as the current manufacturer no longer supports the existing kit. The work is to run from 2 November 2026 to 19 February 2027, with an estimated value of £60,000.

Good fit for: Specialist hardware/instrumentation suppliers or consultancies experienced in data acquisition systems for measurement or testing equipment.

What the buyer says

Based within Trinity House in Harwich, GRAD has been operating a light measurement facility for the purpose of testing marine aids-to-navigation lights for the General Lighthouse Authorities of the UK and Ireland (GLA) for many decades. The facility provides the GLA with the ability to independently determine the suitability of lights for aids-to-navigation purposes, as well as building a unique database of performance measurements of lights in optical systems installed at lighthouses. The measurement systems and processes employed are relatively simple, but working together, they form a sophisticated semi-automatic light measurement process. The data acquisition hardware at the heart of the measurement processes is the same for all facilities, but it is no longer supported by the manufacturer. This is a fundamental piece of equipment in the measurement process and a replacement is needed.

Procedure: Below threshold - open competition (Open: anyone can bid (a lower-value contract with lighter rules)). Published 7 Oct 2026.
