Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Montrose Port Authority
Procurement references
SEP565353
Delivery parties
Design-build contractor to be selected through the restricted procurement.
Contract route
One design-build works package under NEC4 ECC Option A with an activity schedule. Notice quality 30%, cost 70%; initial selection deadline passed. Detailed payment and change provisions require the tender documents.
Execution window
Notice intended contract period 31 August 2027-31 August 2029. Invitations anticipated 20 November 2026; earlier masterplan dates remain concept-stage history.
Works package
Reconstruction of Berths 9-11 with hardstanding, utilities and dredging. Earlier draft Project 1 concept describes 209m quayside, 6,510m2 hardstanding, buildings and a possible western pontoon.
Marine interfaces
Building the quay line out into the river joins retaining structure, infill and berth-pocket dredging. Existing port access, material logistics and the shallower western end affect working areas.
Commercial evidence boundary
GBP 35 million ex-VAT estimated notice value differs from the earlier GBP 38 million masterplan allowance including optimism bias. Activity definitions should track measurable completion of the integrated work sequence.
