This procurement falls under the "works" category and is in the "open" stage. The deadline for submissions is 27th June 2023. The tender opportunity is ideal for businesses involved in construction works particularly related to marine structures. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses to secure a contract for the strengthening and repairs of the berthing structure at Bullhole. The procurement process involves a one-stage exercise, eliminating the need for short-listing. Businesses with expertise in marine construction works and experience in similar projects are well-suited to compete. The contract terms allow for electronic payment, ordering, and invoicing, streamlining the process for successful bidders. ## Notice 2.1.1 Bullhole berthing structure is located between Eilean nam Ban and Ross of Mull, North of Fionnphort (Isle of Mull). It provides good shelter but has restricted anchorage, depth of approx. 3m (chart Datum). The tide runs strong due to the narrow channel. Bullhole is a steel structure anchored to the rock with struts approximately 18m long and 5m apart connected to land via two walkways at either side, being the overall dimension of about 38m. The designer for the berthing structure was Crouch Hogg Waterman. Archive drawings are available from 1991 but these are not as built/construction drawings. There are four structural bents required to provide berthing/mooring for CMAL vessel. There is no available site investigation boreholes or laboratory testing but rockhead is observed close to the seabed. It is assumed therefore that the toe of the four main support structural steel elements are founded directly on sound rockhead. ### Lot Information Lot 1 CMAL wish to appoint a sole supplier in respect of the strengthening and repairs of the berthing structure at Bullhole. This tender is being conducted as a one-stage exercise under CMAL's Procurement Policy which means there is no short-listing stage and all Tenderers are required to complete both the SPD (Scotland) and Tender Response in one stage. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY478207 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 May 2023 | | Submission deadline | 27 Jun 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CALEDONIAN MARITIME ASSETS LTD (UTILITY) | | Locality | PORT GLASGOW | | Post town | Paisley | | Postcode | PA14 5EQ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM33 Inverclyde, East Renfrewshire, and Renfrewshire | | Local authority | Inverclyde | | Electoral ward | Inverclyde East Central | | Westminster constituency | Inverclyde and Renfrewshire West | | Delivery location | TLM63 Lochaber, Skye and Lochalsh, Arran and Cumbrae, and Argyll and Bute | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45241000 - Harbour construction works ## Release History - 11 May 2023 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY478207 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY478207 Bullhole Berthing Structure - 2.1.1 Bullhole berthing structure is located between Eilean nam Ban and Ross of Mull, North of Fionnphort (Isle of Mull).
