About

Felixstowe Dock and Railway Company is seeking a supplier to provide mechanical fitters and coded welders to undertake mechanical engineering, welding and fabrication works for the repair and manufacture of port equipment. Specific tasks include trolley rail joint repairs, replacements and rework on quay cranes, rubber tyred gantry cranes and rail mounted gantry cranes. The contractor must supply various tools and equipment to carry out the services. The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) may apply and further information will be provided to suppliers who pass the Conditions of Participation stage and are invited to tender.

Insight

This opportunity is suited to specialist mechanical engineering and welding contractors with experience on port cranes and heavy plant; key considerations are the requirement to supply tools and equipment on site and the potential application of TUPE which may affect staffing obligations.
