RECENT NEW SHIP PROCUREMENT
This paper covers the range of work undertaken by the Marine Branch of HM Customs and Excise in the UK to procure replacement craft to continue the developmental process started in 1985. The procurement process covers initial assessment of requirements, the writing of the specification, procurement, evaluation and build through to acceptance. The procurement exercise specifically targeted cutters, but additional details are provided on the development of a new concept of craft to provide a regional presence. The two cutters involved in the procurement exercise are HMCC SENTINEL and HMCC VINCENT and the regional boat is named PANTHER.
