## Summary

The City of Sunderland is conducting a public procurement process for the replacement of the main high voltage power cable for the Port of Sunderland’s 35 tonne portal quay crane, titled "Port Crane Cabling". This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically in the crane industry, and is located in the North East region of England. The procurement method is a direct award, with the tender period having concluded on 23rd March 2018. The contract period is set to start on 30th March 2018 and conclude on 30th April 2018, with a total contract value of £30,000.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in electrical engineering and high voltage cabling solutions to expand their operations. Companies experienced in providing specialist cabling products that conform to specific weight and diameter requirements would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Furthermore, the direct award process may appeal to larger suppliers capable of meeting the stringent specifications required by the City of Sunderland.

## Notice

Replacement of the main high voltage power cable to Port of Sunderland no 134 35 tonne portal quay crane. The cable specification itself is not only to be of a specialist high voltage type but needs to be a weight of 2.3 kg per metre and have a 39.5 mm diameter (including a protective outer sheath). These express requirements are necessary as both the cable weight and diameter are the maximum that can fit the cable reeling drum mechanism (which both plays and collects cable as the crane travels along the length of the quay) attached to the crane.
