## Summary

The procurement process for the removal of the pier head widening and ancillary works at Princess Pier, Torquay, was conducted by Torbay Council as the buying organisation. This project falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services and involves works for construction and civil engineering. The tender period concluded on 30 November 2017, with the contract period running from 8 January 2018 to 19 March 2018. The total value of the contract is approximately £282,000, procured through a call-off from Torbay Council's Marine Engineering Framework.

This contract presents an opportunity for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in marine engineering and civil construction. Businesses with expertise in marine construction, particularly those experienced in dismantling and constructing public facilities, would be well positioned to compete for similar projects. Engaging in such public contracts can help these businesses expand their portfolios, enhance their operational capabilities, and contribute to community infrastructure improvements.

## Notice

The pier head widening, including its diagonal props and supporting steel piles, and the adjacent timber landing are to be wholly removed down to below sea bed level. Access to the concrete pier beyond the 'step' arising following removal of the widening is to be installed with ambulant disabled compliant stepped, and wheelchair access compliant ramped installation, both formed with robust steel framing, hardwood timber or composite surfacing, and non-slip finishes. Original style railings are to be installed as edge protection to match existing railing to both landward and seaward elevations of the concrete surface exposed by the removal of the widening. The concrete surface is to be slabbed/made good for return to public use. Additional information: This procurement process was a call-off from Torbay Council's Marine Engineering Framework and Devon County Council's Standing List of Approved Contractors to which Torbay Council has access.
