Summary of the contracting process

North Norfolk District Council is seeking contractors for structural repairs to Cromer Pier in Norfolk. The work is divided into two lots. Substructure repairs involve replacing 14 trusses, 36 deck beams and three wind-braces, repairing column bases, and repairing or replacing rails and bracing. Ancillary work includes replacing timber decking planks and repairing column-base connections as required. The second lot covers repairs to nine pile encasements: a grouted sleeve repair to one pile and concrete encasement repairs to eight piles. The procurement is for construction and repair works, including structural and concrete work, delivered at Cromer Pier. Suppliers may bid for the substructure repairs, pile encasement repairs, or both.

The Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline is 25 November 2026 at 12:00, following an extension of two weeks; the deadline for enquiries is 18 November 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submissions are allowed through Delta e-Sourcing. Lot 1 is valued at £900,000 excluding VAT (£1,080,000 including VAT), with a contract period from 4 January to 30 June 2027. Lot 2 is valued at £400,000 excluding VAT (£480,000 including VAT), running from 4 January to 29 October 2027. For each lot, evaluation is weighted 60% on quality and 40% on price. Each lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits contractors with the capability to carry out structural repair and replacement work on a pier, including work to trusses, deck beams, wind-braces, rails, bracing and column bases. Suppliers with experience in timber decking and structural connections may also be suited to the substructure lot. The pile encasement lot calls for expertise in grouted sleeve repairs and concrete encasement repairs. Businesses can target the lot matching their specialist skills, or pursue both if they have the capacity to undertake the wider package. Quality carries more evaluation weight than price, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the quality of their proposed approach as well as competitive pricing. Both lots are suitable for SMEs.
