This project falls under the 'Pumps and compressors' industry category and is part of a larger refit scheduled for completion by March 2025. Key dates include the tender period ending on 2nd December 2024 at 17:00 GMT, with the contract period running from 1st February 2025 to 31st March 2025. This procurement is being facilitated through an open procedure (below threshold) and is partially funded by the UK Government's UK Shared Prosperity Fund. The project aims to bring Penzance Dry Dock up to par with other industry sites by addressing safety and efficiency improvements. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply and installation of industrial equipment, particularly those involved with pumps and compressors. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate. The procurement process is suitable for businesses that can deliver high-quality engineering solutions and can benefit from exposure to a historic and revitalising infrastructure project. Additionally, companies focusing on reducing carbon footprints and boosting operational efficiency will find this contract particularly aligned with their expertise and growth objectives. ## Notice Penzance Dry Dock (PDD) is famously steeped in history, currently being the oldest operational dry dock of its type in Europe but requires drastic investment after decades of neglect and dilapidations. While the surrounding shipyards, across the county and country have seen investment, PDD has slipped through the net time and time again. PDD plans to complete a large refit by March 2025. PDD will become the engineering powerhouse that it once was, but with more abilities than ever before. This facility has primally been ship repair only, but now we are supporting multiple areas of the market, ship repair, ship building, mass fabrication and most importantly training and skill development. This capital investment, part-funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, will see the site brought up to an even playing field with the rest of industry, with new, safer lifting systems and the dilapidations being rectified. We will see our efficiency drastically increased which in turn will assist in reducing our carbon footprint. Penzance Dry Docks is seeking the supply, installation and commissioning of the air ring arrangement at Penzance Dry Dock. Specification included as an attachment.
