II.2.4) Description of the procurement
This is a voluntary ex-ante transparency (VEAT) notice.
This notice is to indicate that CalMac Ferries Ltd (CFL) have awarded a contract for the provision of a third party freight service for Coll and Tiree. This followed an earlier un-successful tender exercise where no tenders were received to carry out this task.
Caledonian Marine Assets Ltd (CMAL) advised CalMac Ferries Ltd that they plan to conduct linkspan replacements at the ports of Coll and Tiree in Autumn 2019 and Spring 2020 respectively.
The methodology involves using a large crane barge to lift the linkspan in and out. Existing linkspan decks will be decommissioned and floated out. However quay side access will still be available throughout the closure period.
The works are expected to render each linkspan unavailable for a period of 22-25 days, including contingency for any weather delays.
MVs Clansman and the Lord of the Isles will continue to deliver a passenger only service throughout the linkspan closure phases, operating the existing timetable.
The CFL passenger service will be complemented by a managed freight vessel service fulfilled by a third party operator.
