Air-sea rescue services

Department of Transport

Title attributed to the contract by the contracting authority: SAR Helicopter Service 2012 Re-Tendering. The IRCG currently operates a Search & Rescue (SAR) Service comprising medium load helicopters operated by a contractor from four bases at a readiness of 15 minutes by day and 45 minutes by night. The IRCG is seeking a successor contract, including aircrew, maintenance personnel and support services and facilities, to provide a broadly similar level of service, which may however involve a change of current bases, availability or number of aircraft, using more modern helicopters with a national search and rescue role. The new service will cover the Irish Exclusive Economic Zone and elsewhere within the capabilities of the aircraft as directed by the IRCG. The service provider and all aspects of the service provided must comply with relevant aspects of HEMS, maritime SAR and commercial transport requirements of EASA and the Irish Aviation Authority.
