## About this tender

The Authority invites Tenders from suitably qualified suppliers to undertake the provision of the management of Ventnor Harbour, Isle of Wight.

The Potential Supplier will be expected to manage all aspects of the harbour at Ventnor; typically, this will include but is not limited to: -

â&#128;¢ Supervision of the harbour

â&#128;¢ Management of the berths

â&#128;¢ Collection of berthing income

â&#128;¢ Maintenance of the pontoons and harbour infrastructure

â&#128;¢ Full insuring liability

â&#128;¢ Reporting all accidents and incidents

â&#128;¢ Provision of monthly, quarterly and annual reports

â&#128;¢ Compliance with the Port Marine Safety Code (PMSC)

â&#128;¢ Compliance with all relevant legislation, including Health and Safety

â&#128;¢ Statutory returns to the Marine Management Organisation (MMO)

â&#128;¢ Removal of seaweed in accordance with the current MMO licence

The Potential Supplier will benefit from the total income derived from mooring fees, and, subject to the Authority's prior approval and all relevant permissions, may be able to implement improvements which may also generate additional income during the term of the contract.

There will be costs associated with managing Ventnor Harbour, not least the annual requirement of seaweed removal, which currently cost in the region of Â£103,000 per annum, though this can be reviewed as necessary by the successful supplier. All operating costs will be the responsibility of the Potential Supplier, a summary of the last 3 years income and expenditure can be found in Appendix 2 of the Tender Pack.

The term of the contract shall be 01st April 2023 until 31st March 2028. The Authority's long-term intention is to dispose of the freehold of the harbour to a third party, however, in order to be able to do this it will be necessary to either obtain a Harbour Revision Order or have its statutory port designation removed. The Authority will seek to deliver one of these options during the contact term, and subject to achieving this, may be able to treat with the supplier as a special purchaser.
