Summary of the contracting process

Shetland Islands Council has completed the tendering process for the redevelopment of the Fair Isle & Grutness Ferry Terminal. The project, under the industry category "General public services" (CPV code 45000000 for construction work), involved maritime infrastructure works at two sites in the Shetland Islands: Grutness on the mainland, and North Haven on Fair Isle. The contract was awarded through an open procedure with BAM Nuttall Ltd as the contractor. This procurement falls under the "works" main procurement category, and the contract was signed on 27th February 2025 for a value of £31,496,940.24. Key locations for the project are Grutness Pier and North Haven, Fair Isle, located in the Shetland Islands region (UKM66).

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses involved in maritime infrastructure and construction. Companies with expertise in pier extensions, breakwater construction, dredging, and resurfacing are especially well-suited to compete for similar future contracts. The requirement for substantial financial turnover and insurance indicates that well-established firms in the construction sector are ideal candidates. The successful completion of such a high-value contract can enhance a company's portfolio, lead to further opportunities within public contracts, and foster relationships with influential clients like the Shetland Islands Council. Identifying and leveraging community benefits outlined in such contracts can also help businesses to establish a stronger local presence and reputation.
