UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Lighthouse Board, a central government public authority based in Edinburgh, initiated a tender for the procurement of marine gas oil for NLV Pharos. The procurement, which is already in the award stage, involved a contract for the delivery of 105,000 litres of marine gas oil, conforming to ISO 8217 DMA specifications with stringent quality requirements. The delivery was scheduled to take place on 19 March 2025 at Gallanach Road, Oban, Argyll. The procurement method used was a limited competition, as it was below the threshold. The contract was awarded to D McNair & Son Ltd, a supplier located in Campbeltown, on 17 March 2025, and its total value amounts to GBP 49,331.08.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses engaged in the ship refuelling services sector to enhance their portfolio through contracts with central government authorities. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in the supply and delivery of marine fuels can find such contracts particularly beneficial for business growth. Suppliers who can ensure high-quality compliance and timely delivery would be well-suited to compete for similar tenders in the future. The procurement process underscores the importance of adherence to specific industry standards and the ability to meet precise logistical particulars.
