Multi-Vessel In-Service Support
The Australian Border Force is seeking In-Service Support (ISS) arrangements to cover the following three classes of vessels:
a. Bay Class (Bays);
b. Thaiyak; and
c. Ocean Shield (OS).
ISS arrangements broadly cover the necessary maintenance, engineering and other support functions, to ensure that a vessel is able to undertake operational tasking safely and efficiently.
ISS arrangements are currently provided to the Vessels through individual contracts that are due to expire at various stages throughout 2025 (assuming that available extension options are exercised across all contracts). The intent of combining ISS arrangements for the Vessels into a single contract is to streamline the delivery of ISS services (where practical with regard to the requirements of each vessel) and to achieve contract management and commercial efficiencies.
