## Summary

The procurement process led by Thanet District Council focuses on the contract titled "Sealing of the Eastern Sluices Ramsgate Harbour," which falls under the construction industry category. This tender is currently in the open stage, with a deadline for submission of tender documents set for 14:00 on 21 June 2022. The contract period is expected to commence on 8 August 2022 and will last for approximately 12 weeks, concluding by 31 October 2022. The estimated value of the contract is £105,000.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses specialising in construction and repair services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that focus on infrastructure works. Companies that are well-equipped to provide solutions for water management and structural improvements would be particularly suited to compete, given the project's specific requirements for sealing sluices and ensuring long-term maintenance. Engaging in this tender could enhance visibility and open up further collaboration opportunities within the public sector.

## Notice

Since the construction of the Port of Ramsgate, the sluices are obsolete and are no longer maintained in functional condition. Previous works to plug the eastern sluices are showing signs of degradation allowing leakage from the inner basin to the outer harbour. The eastern sluices are to be dammed, but not completely blocked. The solution envisaged is a plate or wall, with a weir or letterbox set at 3.6m chart datum. The solution is to last 25 years with minimal maintenance. The Contract is anticipated to commence upon 8 August 2022 for a duration of 12 Weeks. Important Information: All procurement documents are attached to the notice and available for suppliers to download from the Kent Business Portal at https://www.kentbusinessportal.org.uk/ and complete according to instructions contained. The procurement process will be undertaken on the basis of formal tenders. Evaluation will be on the basis of criteria and methodology as set out in the Invitation to Tender documents. Any clarifications or questions must be submitted via the Message area of the Kent Business Portal by no later than 14.00hrs on 14 June 2022. Completed tender documents must be submitted electronically via the Kent Business Portal by no later than 14.00hrs on 21 June 2022.
