OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government has awarded a contract for the refit of the vessel 'Sir John Murray' to Dunston (Ship Repairs) Ltd. The procurement process was initiated by the Marine Directorate and covered a comprehensive refitting task at the supplier's yard, located within the UK. This open procedure tender fell under the services category, with a specific focus on marine repair (CPV codes: 50240000 and 50000000). The contracting process went through several stages, concluding with the awarding of the contract, which was signed on 18th February 2025. The procurement was managed out of the Marine Directorate located in Aberdeen, with key figures such as Bob McLeod involved in the contact point for the buyer's side.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses within the maritime repair and services industry, particularly those experienced with large vessel refurbishment and capacity to perform detailed marine engineering tasks. SMEs like Dunston (Ship Repairs) Ltd, which has successfully secured the contract worth £202,760.1, can exemplify how smaller, specialised companies can effectively compete in such tenders. Other businesses with capabilities in technical facilities, staffing resources, and relevant environmental and quality management measures may find similar opportunities within the public procurement landscape. A strong financial standing, relevant past experience, and compliance with stipulated economic and technical criteria are essential for potential bidders aiming to leverage such procurement contracts for business growth.
