Summary of the contracting process

The Weymouth Harbour Walls F&G Replacement Scheme, spearheaded by Dorset Council, addresses the construction needs for water infrastructure in Weymouth Peninsula, UK. This procurement focuses on replacing the deteriorating harbour walls, designated as per CPV classification 45240000, with a project value of £5,209,964.83 awarded to Knights Brown Construction Ltd. Initiated in the tender stage back on 27th September 2024, the procurement method followed was an open procedure, culminating in a contract signed on 19th March 2025. Located in the UKK25 region, the contract entails tasks like PU sheet pile installations supported by tie rods, with key procurement milestones previously set for November 2024, following successful bid evaluations.

This project presents substantial business growth opportunities in construction, particularly for companies specialising in large-scale water projects and infrastructure reinforcement. Given the successful involvement of Knights Brown Construction Ltd, businesses with expertise in sheet pile systems and flood defence solutions stand a good chance to excel in similar tenders. Firms should be prepared to meet criteria emphasising quality, health and safety, and social value, alongside competitive pricing. Additionally, businesses capable of electronic submissions for such open procurement opportunities should look for collaborations with local authorities like Dorset Council to increase their market footprint.
