    Brief

    This opportunity involves providing comprehensive support, hosting, and maintenance services for the UK Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) Hub, a critical central repository that collects and processes position data from UK commercial fishing vessels and foreign vessels operating in UK waters. The VMS Hub combines off-the-shelf marine tracking technology with custom UK-specific functionality to meet regulatory and operational requirements. The system serves multiple stakeholders including the England fishing authority, devolved administrations across the UK, and crown dependencies. The Marine Management Organisation (MMO) leads the commissioning of this service. Suppliers should have expertise in system administration, cloud or server hosting infrastructure, technical support delivery, and marine industry software systems. This is an ongoing service contract requiring reliability, security, and compliance with UK fishing regulations.
