UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Walmer Boardwalk Construction" project, managed by Dover District Council, has recently reached the award stage. This contract falls under the "works" category within the construction industry. The procurement was conducted using a "limited" method due to its "below threshold - limited competition" nature. The contract has been awarded to Ovenden Allworks Ltd, a small to medium-sized enterprise located in Canterbury. The contract period begins on 1st August 2026 and is set to conclude on 12th September 2026, with the project taking place in the South East England region, specifically at Whitfield, Dover.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction work, especially those capable of delivering projects efficiently within tight timelines and budget constraints. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in similar projects and those located in or servicing the UKJ region, including proximity to Dover, may find this opportunity particularly appealing. The contract’s limited competition criteria mean that businesses with the relevant experience and the ability to offer competitive pricing will have a strong chance of success in such procurement processes.
