This project falls under the construction work category and is located in Ramsgate, England. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with completed tender documents due by 14:00 on 28th September 2021. The contract is expected to commence on 25th October 2021 and will last for 12 weeks. The expected value of the contract is £75,000, and it's being pursued through an open procedure, emphasizing formal quotations from suppliers. This tender presents a significant opportunity for construction firms, particularly those specialising in civil engineering and maintenance services. Suitable competitors include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in similar projects and expertise in durable solutions for harbour infrastructure. Interested businesses should ensure that they are prepared to submit their proposals by the stipulated deadline and are able to demonstrate their capacity to deliver on the requirements set forth in the tender documents, which are accessible via the Kent Business Portal. ## Notice Since the construction of the Port of Ramsgate, the sluices are obsolete and are no longer maintained in functional condition.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.
