This contract is for a company to manufacture and install precast reinforced‑concrete anti‑propagation barriers in the GOLF Dispersal area at RAF Akrotiri, Cyprus. The successful bidder must set up a temporary casting yard on‑site and deliver the barriers according to the client’s drawings and specifications.
Requirements
- Capability to manufacture precast reinforced concrete barrier units
- Must establish a dedicated casting compound on Akrotiri Station
- Work must be carried out in accordance with IFC drawings and project specifications
- Adherence to site‑specific setting‑out coordinates
- Compliance with all client‑issued instructions and military site health & safety rules
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Design and fabricate reinforced concrete anti‑propagation barrier units to the approved IFC drawings
- Set up a temporary on‑site casting compound for precast production
- Transport and install the barrier units within the GOLF Dispersal area
- Perform setting‑out and alignment using site‑specific coordinates

How to Read This Tender
- 1Look for the sections titled “Scope of Work” and “Technical Specifications” – they define the exact barrier dimensions and performance criteria you must meet.
- 2Note the dates – the tender window is very short (EOI 31 Aug to Tender Return 8 Oct), so plan your bid preparation timeline carefully.
- 3Check any referenced documents (IFC drawings, project specs) that are usually supplied on the procurement portal – you cannot rely on the brief alone for design details.
- 4Pay attention to the requirement to build a casting compound on‑site; this adds logistics and cost considerations that must be priced into your bid.
- 5Watch for any mandatory certifications (e.g., ISO 9001, health & safety accreditations) that may be required for work on a military installation.
Tips for Small Businesses
- Partner with a local concrete supplier or subcontractor who already has experience working on overseas or defence sites to share the casting‑yard set‑up risk.
- Highlight any social‑value contributions you can make (e.g., employing local Cypriot staff) – the MOD often awards points for community benefit.
- If the total contract value is beyond your capacity, consider forming a consortium with another small firm to jointly meet the manufacturing and installation requirements.
