Summary of the contracting process

Annan Harbour Action Group commissioned main contractor services for the regeneration of Annan Harbour. The works cover repair and conversion of Collett’s Building into a museum and café, installation of a new dam, bridge and lagoon, and improvements to landscaping, access and other facilities. This is a construction and engineering requirement (CPV 45220000), delivered in Annan. The buyer is a Scottish charitable incorporated organisation focused on revitalising the local area, promoting harbour use and raising awareness of the harbour as a community resource. The appointed main contractor is expected to manage the overall works rather than supply a single standalone trade package, making this relevant to construction businesses with the management capability and multidisciplinary delivery capacity to coordinate building, civil engineering, landscape and access works.

The procurement has completed its pre-qualification and award stages. It used an open procedure, beginning with a quality-only pre-qualification questionnaire; the five highest-scoring firms passing the required thresholds were to be invited to tender. Quality carried 100% of the evaluation and price 0%. Two electronic bids were received, including one from an SME. Cubby Construction Ltd was awarded the contract, which is active and was signed on 18 March 2026. The contract value is £10,111,000, against an estimated procurement value of £10,000,000. The contract period runs from 5 January 2026 to 20 December 2027. The requirement was a single lot. Bids had to be submitted electronically in English, with an electronic catalogue required, and bidders had to provide assigned staff names and qualifications.

For a future requirement of this type, credible competitors would need to operate as an experienced main contractor able to manage a complex harbour regeneration programme from building conversion through civil engineering and public-realm improvements. Relevant capability includes coordinating repairs to an existing structure, adapting it for museum and café use, delivering water-related infrastructure such as a dam, bridge and lagoon, and managing landscaping, access and associated facilities as one programme. The evaluation shows that a strong quality submission was central, so firms would need robust evidence of methodology, project management, technical delivery and quality assurance rather than relying mainly on price. The pre-qualification route also indicates the importance of meeting defined suitability thresholds and presenting suitably qualified delivery staff. This scale is likely to suit established construction businesses or capable SME main contractors with the necessary management depth and specialist supply-chain relationships.
