Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council engaged in a direct procurement process for the "Floating Bridge 6 Annual Refit Works 2025", classified under miscellaneous engineering services. The process pertained to essential maintenance works required for the local Cowes Floating Bridge, crucial to ensure compliance with the Maritime Coastguard Agency’s annual inspection. Given its location in Newport, United Kingdom, the contract was awarded on 19 March 2025, with the service period starting on 24 March 2025 and concluding by 23 June 2025. Notably, this contract, valued at £77,059 with the potential for a three-month extension, was procured below the competitive threshold.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in engineering services, particularly those with expertise in marine vessel maintenance. The direct award to Adams Precision Hydraulics Limited, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Southampton, underscores the council’s preference for local expertise. Companies in the surrounding region with similar capabilities could gain considerable benefits from keeping abreast of such opportunities, establishing strong partnerships, and enhancing their profiles within maritime engineering sectors.
