## Summary

The West Dorset District Council is currently undertaking a public procurement process for the "West Bay Harbour Dredge 2018," which concerns dredging works in West Bay, Dorset. This initiative falls under the industry categories of excavating work, with a total contract value of £80,000. The tender submission deadline is set for 8th February 2018, with an anticipated contract award date on 27th February 2018. The contract period is expected to commence on 1st March 2018 and conclude by 31st August 2018, contingent on tidal conditions, as the project demands the work to be completed before the installation of pontoons on 26th March 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) experienced in excavation and dredging activities, particularly those with capabilities to adapt to tidal dependencies. Businesses specialising in marine construction, geotechnical contracting, and those equipped with dredging equipment could find this project advantageous to expand their portfolio and enhance expertise in public contracts. Participating in this procurement process could allow organisations to establish long-term relationships with the West Dorset District Council while contributing to regional infrastructure development.

## Notice

West Bay harbour dredge 2018 advert CPV code; 45252124-3 and 45112400-9 West Dorset District Council is procuring a contract for a single dredge of West Bay outer harbour, West bay, Dorset. Scope of works; reducing bed levels by approx. 1.5m across the whole area and placing dredged arisings on west beach. All shingle on west beach, in the area of deposition, is to be moved to one side. After dredging is complete, the shingle is to be graded back over the arising so as to form a finished crest width of 10m at a level to be determined by the council engineer. The work is tide dependent if conventional excavators and dumptrucks are the preferred method. For the most favourable tidal conditions, contract commencement is likely to be early March 2018 during 'spring tides', however, work must be complete before Easter 2018, specifically before the pontoons are installed in the outer harbour on 26th March 2018. If using floating equipment, works will not be so dependent on tides, but the deadline for completion of works will be the pontoon installation date as mentioned above. Deadline for submission of tender is 8th February 2018 with an expected date for award of contract on 27th February 2018. All responses and questions must be returned using the council's e-tendering portal: https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk/.
