Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Orkney Islands Council, which is seeking Project Technical Advisor Services as part of the Orkney Harbour Master Plan. This initiative is crucial for specialist marine engineering consultancy needed for the potential developments at Hatston (Orkney Logistics Base) and Scapa Flow (Scapa Deep Water Quay). The tender, classified under the services industry, is at the award stage, with a completed contract of £1,440,000 signed on 6th June 2022. The principal location for service delivery is the Orkney Main Island, and the procurement method used was an open procedure, enabling wide competition.

This tender presents significant opportunities for marine engineering consultancies and related service providers, particularly those with experience in port-related activities. The projects outlined will require ongoing technical advisory support over an anticipated duration of up to eight years, making them suitable for firms ready to engage with the complexities of large-scale infrastructure developments. Companies based in Orkney or those capable of responding quickly to on-site demands will find this particularly advantageous, and it aligns with fair work practices, encouraging small and medium enterprises to participate in the process.

Provision of Project Technical Advisor Services for the Orkney Harbour Master Plan

Notice Description

Orkney Islands Council Harbour Authority as part of the Orkney Islands Council (the "Authority") has a requirement for specialist marine engineering technical advisory consultancy service as part of the wider Orkney Port Master Plan at this stage for two specific projects, the potential developments at Hatston (Orkney Logistics Base) and Scapa Flow (Scapa Deep Water Quay).

Lot Information

Lot 1

Orkney Islands Council Harbour Authority as part of the Orkney Islands Council (the "Authority") has a requirement for specialist marine engineering technical advisory consultancy service as part of the wider Orkney Port Master Plan at this stage for two specific projects, the potential developments at Hatston (Orkney Logistics Base) and Scapa Flow (Scapa Deep Water Quay). The technical advisor service is required as projects move towards detailed design and construction, noting that the Orkney Harbour Masterplan Phase 1 contains other projects. Work will include providing advice on these potential developments only ie: Scapa Deep Water Quay and Hatston (Orkney Logistics Base). Workload and timing will be dependent on the progression of each project through the development of the ScotWind offshore windfarm construction programmes, consenting and internal Authority approval processes. The Authority seeks a suitably qualified and experienced marine engineering consultancy to undertake this Technical Advisory role. A separate tender shall be issued for the provision of a suitably qualified consultancy to undertake financial and commercial advisor services, although the appointed Consultancy would be expected to develop and provide a plan for the construction of projects. It should be noted that this is not an Invitation to Tender (ITT) for a Consultancy to undertake the detailed design (or Design and Construct) of the project(s) and develop to construction. It is anticipated that the technical adviser consultancy procured under this contract will be engaged as required for the total potential 96 months of the duration of the contract to provide advice on, and work on behalf of the Authority in the development of these projects. If projects currently planned do not progress further, or do not gain consent then it is possible that work required will be limited. It should be noted that the appointed Consultancy will not be responsible for gaining the consents but will be part of a team that provides / prepares the submission of relevant documents for submission.. Noting that at the time of award of the contract the duration will be for two (2) years, (which is fully funded), with any further extensions subject to confirmation of funding being available.

Renewal: It is envisaged that the initial contract duration will be for an initial 24 month period from May 2022 to May 2024 with an option at the Authority's discretion (subject to funding beyond the first two year period) to extend the contract by a further 3 x 24 month periods, therefore matching the proposed project timescales.

Workload and timing will be dependent on the progression of each project through the development of the ScotWind offshore windfarm construction programmes, consenting and internal Authority approval processes. The Authority seeks a suitably qualified and experienced marine engineering consultancy to undertake this Technical Advisory role. A separate tender shall be issued for the provision of a suitably qualified consultancy to undertake financial and commercial advisor services, although the appointed Consultancy would be expected to develop and provide a plan for the construction of projects. It should be noted that this is not an Invitation to Tender (ITT) for a Consultancy to undertake the detailed design (or Design and Construct) of the project(s) and develop to construction. It is anticipated that the technical adviser consultancy procured under this contract will be engaged as required for the total potential 96 months of the duration of the contract to provide advice on, and work on behalf of the Authority in the development of these projects. If projects currently planned do not progress further, or do not gain consent then it is possible that work required will be limited. It should be noted that the appointed Consultancy will not be responsible for gaining the consents but will be part of a team that provides / prepares the submission of relevant documents for submission.. Noting that at the time of award of the contract the duration will be for two (2) years, (which is fully funded), with any further extensions subject to confirmation of funding being available.",
