## Summary

The procurement process for the Rock Armour Protection Works to Hollicombe Cliff is being conducted by Torbay Council, with a total contract value of £1,100,000. This project falls under the 'Building installation work' industry category and is located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The tender was published on 5th September 2016, and the tender period officially ended on 14th October 2016. The contract period commenced on 18th October 2016 and will continue until 19th December 2016. The procurement method used for this contract is an open procedure, indicative of an inclusive approach to sourcing qualified contractors.

This tender presents significant opportunities for firms specialising in construction, specifically those involved in civil engineering and coastal protection works. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to compete, offering a chance for local businesses to engage in substantial public works that not only enhance their portfolios but also contribute to community resilience against coastal erosion. Companies with expertise in building installation, site preparation, and completion work would be well-suited to participate in this project.

## Notice

Hollicombe Head is a sandstone cliff located in Paignton between Hollicombe and Marine Parade. In the mid 1800's to the rear of the cliff the main railway line between Paignton and London was constructed. Over the years due to the cliff being exposed to the full force of easterly storm events, coastal erosion has been occurring. The rate of coastal erosion has varied along the length of the cliffs and due to the risk of the railway being lost in the 1950's rock armouring was installed as coastal protection to a large section of the cliffs behind Hollicombe beach. A section of the cliffs did not receive rock armouring at this time and it is this section of cliffs that is now eroding significantly. In order to prevent the continued regression of the cliff face the toe protection scheme in the form of rock armour is required.
