This tender, classified under port-related activities, employed a selective procurement method through a restricted procedure. The contract, valued at approximately £19,371,226.55, was awarded to Boskalis Westminster Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in Fareham, UK, on 30 May 2025. The procurement stage is presently at the award and contract stage. Key details include the legal basis of CELEX 32014L0025 and adherence to GPA standards. The process saw completion on 5 August 2025, with specific criteria focusing on method quality and cost assessment. This capital dredging project offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in marine works and port infrastructure, particularly those with experience handling complex maritime projects in challenging environments. Given its strategic positioning within Shetland, this project can facilitate further developments in regional maritime operations, such as enhancing port capacity and enabling larger vessel access. Companies with a strong track record in maritime construction, dredging, or related engineering capacities would be well-suited to pursue similar opportunities, particularly those familiar with UK utility and infrastructure contracts. Despite the use of a selective procedure, the business recognition and potential scaling from such high-value public projects could significantly contribute to growth trajectories and expand operational expertise within the industry. ## Notice The Lerwick Port Authority (LPA) has a requirement for a suitably qualified Contractor to carry out a capital dredging campaign for Lerwick North Harbour and Dales Voe. ### Lot Information Lot 1 This is an SPD Notice only at this time.
