    Brief

    The Underwater Engineering (UWE) capability provides comprehensive inspections, repairs, husbandry, and maintenance services for Royal Navy (RN) and Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) vessels at or below the waterline. This service ensures vessels operate in compliance with regulations while maintaining efficiency and safety standards. By delivering maintenance without requiring expensive and disruptive dry docking procedures, UWE directly supports the strategic objective to maximize vessel availability and operational readiness. Suppliers should be prepared to offer specialized underwater engineering expertise, including non-destructive testing, corrosion management, hull integrity assessment, and emergency repair capabilities for naval vessels. This is a £6.2 million opportunity for qualified contractors.
