## Summary

Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd is procuring marine and harbour maintenance works at Ardrossan Harbour. The requirement covers replacing 10 missing or defective fenders, installing one new fender and carrying out further maintenance to preserve ferry operations until the harbour closes for redevelopment. This is a works contract involving harbour infrastructure and marine safety, classified under CPV 45244000 for marine construction works. The buyer is Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd, a public-law body responsible for transport assets. The work is associated with Ardrossan Harbour and supports the continued operation of ferry services during the period before redevelopment. The requirement is presented as a single package rather than separate service or supply elements, with the fender replacement and wider maintenance activities forming one coordinated harbour works programme.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, relying on its framework agreement. George Leslie Ltd was selected as the supplier for the complete requirement. The contract value is £404,577. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and is recorded as active. One bid was received, submitted electronically by an SME. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. It was handled as one lot, with no options attached. The published outcome records the award to George Leslie Ltd but does not set out a separate evaluation weighting or named award criteria. The process therefore demonstrates a framework-based route to appointing a contractor for defined marine maintenance works.

This award shows demand for specialist marine construction and harbour maintenance from Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd, particularly work that keeps ferry infrastructure operational during major redevelopment planning. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in marine environments, including the removal and installation of harbour fenders, inspection of defective or missing protection systems, associated repair work and safe working around operational ferry facilities. Experience of coordinating disruptive works without compromising vessel movements or essential transport services would be important. The requirement also favours contractors able to deliver a defined package of fabrication, marine access, installation and maintenance activities through one accountable team. The successful bidder was an SME, indicating that businesses of this scale can compete where they have the relevant technical delivery capacity and framework access.
