Summary of the contracting process

Peterhead Port Authority is procuring professional services to project-manage and supervise the Smith Quay Extension at Smith Quay, Peterhead. The work covers an 83-metre extension to the existing 120-metre quay, a mooring dolphin, 10,000 square metres of concrete-paved laydown areas, associated site infrastructure and quayside furniture. The consultant will provide an NEC4 Project Manager and NEC4 Supervising Engineer, overseeing delivery of the marine construction works and supporting contract administration under the NEC4 Professional Service Contract. The procurement is for services in construction project management. Design work has been developed by NIRAS, while early contractor input is being provided through the SCAPE Scotland Utilities Framework Agreement.

The process reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission and a required electronic catalogue. Tenders had to be submitted by 5 October 2026 at 11:00 BST; tenders were due to be opened at 12:00 the same day in Peterhead. The contract period is 840 days, with continuation if construction is delayed until the works are finally complete. The estimated value of the professional services is £750,000. Evaluation is based on price at 40%, quality of contract management at 35%, references and additional information at 15%, and legal information at 10%. Bids must remain valid for 90 days, variants are not allowed, and monthly interim payments are provided for.

This opportunity suits consultancies with professionally qualified project managers and supervising engineers experienced in marine construction projects. Bidders need demonstrable capability in managing and supervising marine works, including monitoring health, safety, quality and environmental compliance and compliance with marine licences. The appointed consultant must provide staff names and qualifications, operate externally audited management processes certified to ISO 9001 for quality, ISO 45001 for safety and ISO 14001 for environmental management, and provide a cloud-based document-management and collaboration system. Experience of NEC4 roles and professional services contracts is central to the requirement. Suppliers with integrated project controls, construction supervision and marine regulatory expertise are well placed to compete.
