Background information Portsmouth International Port The Port is wholly owned by the Council and is the UK's largest municipal port. The Port is a major UK port, responsible for handling millions of passengers and vital cargo across the globe. With easy access from the motorway and major shipping lanes, the Port is ideally placed for ferries, cruise, and freight. Within Portsmouth Cruise and Ferry Port, referred to as the port, there are five Roll On/Roll Off berths serving both ferries and cruise ships. The ferries provide regular sailings to France, Spain, and the Channel Islands; the cruise ships attend the port with both full turnaround and cruise calls. Within the year of 2025, the Port welcomed 1.6 million cruise and ferry passengers, 570,000 passenger vehicles, and 190,000 fright units. The port usually operates during the hours of 0530 to midnight, 7 days a week, 52 weeks of the year. It has bold environmental ambitions to tackle its emissions and carbon footprint and aims to reach carbon zero by 2050. The Port's plans to improve air quality and their carbon footprint can be found under Sustainability and innovation on the Port's website at Sustainability and innovation - Portsmouth Port (portsmouth-port.co.uk). Further information about the port, including an overview of the facilities, current ferry and cruise schedules, cargo and logistics, etc, can be freely accessed on the Port's website via the weblink Home - Portsmouth Port (portsmouth-port.co.uk) The port manages The Camber, which is set close to the harbour entrance and is Portsmouth's oldest commercial docks, comprising of four berths that are available for small vessels that are primarily local fishing boats, small coastal commercial vessels, and private pleasure craft. The Port is also responsible for a significant area of the land in this area. Further information can be found on the Port's website at The Camber - Portsmouth Port (portsmouthport.co.uk). Future Requirements - Core Team The successful contractor is to supply a permanent core team of staff to supplement the Port's own directly employed Technical Services Group who carry out repairs and maintenance across the Port's estate. Both teams are directed by the Port's directly employed Maintenance and Facilities Manager to undertake planned, minor, and corrective maintenance. One member of the core team of staff should act as a working supervisor having a good understanding of the Port's requirement and undertaking day to day liaison with the Port's Maintenance and Facilities Manager. The core team are on site at the Port between Monday - Friday (excluding bank holidays), between the hours 8:0 - 17:00. Due to the operational requirements and security at the Port consistency of staffing is required and members of the permanent core team of staff should be treated as a dedicated resource. To cater for the dynamic work requirements, it is envisaged that the contractors' staff will be required to carry out a range of different jobs, which includes a range of trades (this is not an exhaustive list): • Carpentry • Plumbing • Decorations / Painting • Groundwork • Horticultural On occasion the Contractor may be requested by the Port's Maintenance and Facilities Manager to provide a fixed quotation for a particular job or to provide additional trades outside of those listed above. The Contractor will provide a call out facility to make safe, prevent further damage to property or personnel and to safeguard the public within a maximum of two hours Commercial Gas Services The Contractor is to provide and manage an effective programme for annual safety inspections that ensures that all the Port's assets have Gas Safety Certificates that are less than twelve months old. The Contractor is to provide a reactive responsive repairs service, which includes outside of the hours of 0800 to 1700 hours Monday to Friday. The Contractor will carry out the right repairs first time as and when required to maintain the Port's assets. Contract Scaling The Port is a dynamic environment and though not guaranteed, may require the contractors to be able to scale up their workforce by up to two thirds of the current core team over the life of the contract, either on a flexible temporary or long-term basis which will impact the value of the contract which is included in the financial range included in section 8 on this invitation to tender. Scope and Specification The Council requires the provision of Repairs and Maintenance Services across Portsmouth International Port, including Portsmouth Cruise and Ferry Port, The Camber and the Border Control Post. The services will support the ongoing operation, safety and maintenance of the Port's estate and associated assets. The principal elements of the service include: • Planned maintenance activities. • Minor and corrective maintenance repairs. • Provision of a dedicated on-site core maintenance team. • Gas safety inspections, servicing and maintenance. • Out-of-hours emergency call-out services. • Provision of additional specialist trades and quoted works as required. The Contractor will be expected to work collaboratively with the Port's directly employed maintenance personnel and deliver the services in a manner that supports the operational, safety and security requirements of the Port environment.
