UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Portsmouth City Council procured emergency oil-spill clean-up and pollution-response services for Portsmouth International Port. The requirement covers responding to oil pollution incidents through containment, clean-up, waste disposal and recovery. It also includes deploying specialist personnel, vehicles and equipment, supplying absorbent materials, and carrying out associated environmental remediation works. This is a specialist environmental response and water-pollution service, classified under CPV 90733000. Delivery is at Portsmouth International Port in Portsmouth. The buyer is a sub-central public authority responsible for arranging the service. The requirement is focused on incident response and remediation rather than routine port maintenance, so it is most relevant to businesses with the people, equipment, logistics and environmental controls needed to manage oil contamination safely and lawfully.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to ADLER & ALLAN LIMITED. There was one completed lot, covering the full requirement. The process was below the applicable threshold, with the procurement method recorded as unknown. The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and ran from 30 July 2026 to 13 August 2026. Its gross value was £53,229. The awarded supplier is recorded as an active supplier, and the contract is recorded as active. The available outcome information identifies the selected supplier and contract value, but does not set out an award scoring model or separate technical and financial evaluation weightings. This was a single-supplier award for services delivered in response to pollution incidents at Portsmouth International Port.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates Portsmouth City Council’s demand for a specialist oil-pollution response capability at its port. A credible competitor would need to mobilise trained response personnel quickly and provide suitable vehicles, containment equipment, absorbent materials and recovery resources. It would also need to manage contaminated waste disposal and environmental remediation as part of one coordinated service, rather than offering clean-up labour alone. Relevant operational experience should cover oil pollution incidents in a port or comparable industrial environment, including safe site working, incident control and the handling of recovered waste. The requirement also indicates that smaller specialist environmental businesses can be relevant: the appointed supplier is classified as an SME. Future credibility will depend on demonstrable response capacity, equipment availability and reliable end-to-end delivery.
