## Summary

The Dover Harbour Board has recently completed the procurement process for the provision of mobile cranes at the Port of Dover. This procurement falls under the CPV classification for cranes and is categorised under goods. The contract involved two lots; however, both lots were eventually cancelled. The procurement method followed was an open procedure, executed to replace old mobile cranes and improve port operations. The tender stage, which had an end date of 29th February 2024, required the submission of proposals in a selective manner, involving a negotiated procedure with prior call for competition. The final contract was awarded and signed on 23rd July 2024, with Dover Harbour Board being the buying organisation and the region specified as UKJ4, covering South East England.

This procurement tender offers significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in the manufacture and supply of mobile cranes, particularly those with experience in port-related activities. The tender, despite final cancellation, represented an opportunity for businesses to engage with a key UK port authority, potentially leading to future collaboration and contracts. Companies proficient in supplying high-quality, durable cranes, and familiar with the needs of maritime and port operations would be ideally suited to participate in such tenders. Moreover, engaging with large-scale infrastructure projects like this can strengthen a company's portfolio and reputation within the industry.
