## Summary

The South Hams District Council is seeking tenders for the supply and emplacement of pontoons at three locations within Salcombe Harbour, located in South Devon. This procurement, classified under the industry category of 'Floating structures', is currently at the tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 6 December 2017. The contract is scheduled to commence on 1 February 2018 and conclude by 31 January 2019. The process follows an open procurement method and addresses a pressing need for increased berthing capacity and replacement of existing pontoons which have reached the end of their serviceable life.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in marine construction and harbour equipment to expand their operations. Companies specialising in the supply of floating structures, marine construction works, and the installation of hydro-mechanical structures would find this tender particularly suited to their expertise. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to compete, given the buyer's emphasis on inclusivity in the procurement process. Engaging with this project could lead to long-term contracts and partnerships within the growing recreational and leisure sector of Salcombe Harbour.

## Notice

The Council, as Statutory Harbour Authority has a requirement for the supply and emplacement of pontoons at three locations within Salcombe Harbour. Salcombe Harbour is a small harbour in South Devon which is primarily a recreational and leisure port for small boats, many of which are berthed alongside existing Walcon 'system 21' pontoons which can be accessed from the shore. These are in Batson Creek (50deg 14.53N 003deg 46.05W) and Shadycombe Creek (50deg 14.50 N 003deg 46.05W) which are both found immediately to the north of Salcombe town. Although these dry out at low tide, demand for such berths exceeds supply and it was recently decided that the number of berths be increased. In addition there are two deep water pontoons at Dentridge (50deg 14.68N 003deg 45.55W) which are currently connected to the fundus by block and chain. These are at the end of their serviceable life and the decision has been taken to replace these with new pontoons which are connected to the fundus by piles. Salcombe Harbour is a recognised ecoport and resides within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and is also a Local Nature Reserve. Tender submissions must take special account of this.
