Project anatomy
Contract scope and delivery roles
Client / authority
Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque, the state-owned Port of Dunkirk authority
Delivery parties
Single framework holder - procurement open; no awardee named, Diving, inspection, cathodic-protection design, anode supply, marine plant, electrical testing and structure-specific lower tiers - not identified
Contract route
Open adapted procedure under internal consultation 26ANI002 and BOAMP notice 26-77562. The buyer describes a single-provider framework that may use follow-on contracts in the form of purchase orders, allows award without negotiation, prohibits variants and requires no mandatory visit. BOAMP flags the procurement as lotted but exposes only one lot description in the public notice; the controlled consultation documents should govern any finer lot boundary.
Execution window
A 72-month term would begin on the day after contract notification. The buyer may terminate at each anniversary with three months' notice and without compensation. No notification date, first call-off, mobilisation date, structure sequence or completion programme exists while the procurement remains open.
Works package
The published scope is underwater work to replace cathodic-protection systems on different Dunkirk port structures under CPV 45244000. The public notice does not identify the structures, corrosion survey baseline, steel areas, existing system type, anode composition or quantities, impressed-current equipment, cable and reference-electrode scope, coating interfaces, dive depth, access method, design life, testing method or acceptance criteria.
Marine interfaces
The opportunity sits at the submerged steel and electrical-protection interface of an operating port. Potential delivery gates include structure-specific condition verification, diving access and isolation, removal and installation methods, anode or impressed-current design, continuity and potential testing, navigation coordination and return of each asset to service. These are normal scope questions, not confirmed package allocations or methods in the cited notice.
Commercial evidence boundary
The EUR 1.5 million minimum and EUR 5.0 million maximum apply across the maximum six-year framework term. They do not identify annual spend, call-off count, structure quantities or allocation by diving, design, materials, marine plant and testing. Similar-work contracts may be procured under the stated legal route, but no such package, value or party has yet been published.
