Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by the Port of Dover, titled "Port of Dover - Project Contractors Framework - Tranche 2 (projects each over £3 million) - AWARD," has reached the award stage as of 5th May 2026. This framework, specifically for construction work, targets projects estimated at over £3 million, and will operate over a six-year period starting on 4th May 2026, concluding on 4th May 2032, with a potential extension of up to three years. Located in the South East of the United Kingdom, specifically Kent, this procurement involved an open procedure, encompassing works across four main disciplines: Utilities, Berths and Marine, Highways, Civils and Structures, and Building Fabric and Services.

This framework represents significant opportunities for companies in the construction and civil engineering sectors, particularly those specialising in marine, utility, and infrastructure projects. A variety of suppliers has been awarded contracts, including Blu-3 (UK) Limited, Costain, and FM Conway, among others, suggesting that businesses of substantial capacity are needed to deliver on such significant projects. As the framework requires handling complex and large-scale infrastructure developments, firms with established experience in these areas, potentially operating on a national or international scale, are well-suited to compete and grow their business through this procurement initiative.
