Peel Ports appoints contractors to £750m construction framework
Liverpool-based Peel Ports Group, the UK’s second-largest port operator, has appointed a host of contractors into its new construction framework.
It covers a major programme of construction works across its UK and Ireland sites, worth up to £750m.
The port operator has appointed 18 contractors across the multi-lot framework for a period of up to eight years.
Lot 1 of the framework covers general construction and Lot 2 covers marine construction, while Lot 3 is a national lot for major projects.
The regional and national suppliers will support projects across the group’s entire portfolio of UK and Ireland ports, including the Port of Liverpool, Heysham Port, Manchester Ship Canal, London Medway, its Clydeport sites, Great Yarmouth, and Dublin Port.
The move underpins the delivery of Peel Ports’ long term construction pipeline, with the scope of the framework covering both existing infrastructure improvements and new developments.
Lewis McIntyre, managing director – port services at Peel Ports Group, said: “This rigorous procurement process has allowed us to select the very best regional and national partners, who will support the ongoing development of our network of logistics hubs.”
