Summary of the contracting process

Crown Estate Scotland has initiated a procurement process titled "Montrose ZeroFour Remediation Client Side Team," focusing on consultative engineering and construction services within the UK. This project, part of the ZeroFour CES Development, requires a team to oversee and report on the remediation works carried out on-site. The key procurement category is services, and the process follows an open procedure. The original tender deadline was scheduled for 15th June 2026, but has been extended to 24th July 2026 due to internal reviews. The project location is central to the UK region and it involves regulatory compliance, engineering supervision, and other consultancy services, with a contract period lasting 540 days.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for growth to businesses specialising in engineering, project management, and compliance services, particularly those equipped to handle environmental sensitivities and planning complexities. The tender process will be highly beneficial for multidisciplinary firms capable of delivering a robust client-side service including project management, technical assurance, and ecological oversight. With a significant contract value of £400,000, this opportunity is well-suited for businesses aiming to expand their reach within the public sector, focusing on innovative and effective project delivery in large-scale engineering remediation projects.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Crown Estate Scotland requires a multidisciplinary Remediation Client-Side Team (RCST) to provide project management, technical assurance, regulatory compliance, engineering/NEC supervision, CDM Principal Designer duties, ecological and heritage oversight, planning advice, cost management and structured reporting to support delivery of the ZeroFour remediation works. CES does not have internal capacity to manage the specialist risks associated with contaminated land, UXO, radium, ecological sensitivity, and planning complexity, and therefore needs an integrated supplier team to act as its client side engine throughout the project lifecycle.
