UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council has successfully completed the procurement process for the provision of replacement generators for the Cowes Floating Bridge, classified under the goods category, specifically generators. The tender was awarded to Richardsons Yacht Services Ltd, a small-medium enterprise, located in Newport, Isle of Wight. This direct procurement method was conducted below the threshold, without competition, and has reached the award stage with the contract signed on 14th March 2025. The contract has an active status and is set to run from 15th March 2025 to 10th March 2030. The legal basis for this contract is aligned with the UK Parliament's legislation from 2023. The entire procurement process has been documented with a notice published on 30th May 2025.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved especially in the manufacture and provision of generators and related equipment, particularly those on the Isle of Wight or surrounding regions. It encourages local SMEs to engage with public authorities such as the Isle of Wight Council, fostering regional economic growth. While the award already favoured a well-established yacht service firm, businesses with the capability to supply and deliver equipment effectively across the region or similar types of procurement needs can leverage such opportunities for growth and expansion in the public sector.
