## Summary

The Dorset Council has awarded the contract for the "Lyme Regis and Bridport Harbour Dredging" project to Smals Dredging UK Ltd. The procurement process began with a tender aiming to complete construction work for water projects involving dredging and pumping works. The total contract value is £240,000, with a specific tender deadline on November 27, 2023. The contract period is set to start on February 15, 2024, and end on March 28, 2024.

This tender for the dredging project presents a business opportunity for companies specializing in construction work for water projects, particularly those experienced in dredging and pumping works. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete for this tender, offering a chance for growth and collaboration with the Dorset Council as the buying organisation. Interested businesses should ensure compliance with the open procurement procedure and meet the specified deadlines for submission.

## Notice

The West Bay or Bridport Harbour and the Lyme Regis Harbour both provide safe mooring and launching facilities for small boats and are also important refuge harbours along the Dorset coast for any vessels at sea that may be in distress. The same Harbour Master has jurisdiction over both harbours. It is essential that annual dredging operations are carried out at the two harbours, and, because of their proximity to one another, it is expedient that these operations are carried out as one contract and the Council is now seeking tenders for this requirement.
