FIG issues tender for new port facility<\/h1>\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Today the Falkland Islands Government has issued an Invitation to Tender (ITT) to the global construction market to select and appoint a preferred development partner for the design and construction of a new port facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For further information you can register at https:\/\/turnerandtownsend.bravosolution.com<\/a> and then contact Alex McShane on 00500 28437 or amcshane@sec.gov.fk<\/a> who will provide secure access to the Falkland Islands Government New Port Development ECI tender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tender will remain open for three months before closing on 30 August 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the latest step in developing new port infrastructure for the Falkland Islands and enabling long term economic growth for Falkland Islands\u2019 industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The procurement approach has been adopted to ensure that the Government can work with a preferred partner from the outset on the details of design, cost and planning processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will also provide FIG with decision gateways so that designs and costs are reviewed at key stages before a final commitment to build is made. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of this latest development, Iain Robertson, Director of Development and Commercial Services, said: \u201cWe have been working closely with our technical advisors to make sure that our procurement method meets the highest standards of best practice and will give us the best possible opportunity to secure a partnership that not only understands the unique requirements of the Falkland Islands, but also the size of the opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis development will be one of the largest in the history of the islands, which is why it is vital that we carry out all aspects of the procurement journey in a carefully managed way. This is an exciting step forward and one which will is vital to the health of our economy as it supports the growth of our fishing, imports and exports, tourism and scientific research.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
