Corran Ferry New Electric Vessel (CFNEV)
The contract covers the detailed design and construction of a small electric roll-on/roll-off passenger and car ferry for The Highland Council’s Corran Ferry service. The buyer is a local authority in Scotland, procuring a vessel to support public ferry transport for passengers and vehicles. The appointed sole supplier will be responsible for shipyard-level detailed design and build delivery of the electric ro-pax vessel, including the construction of a ferry capable of meeting the operational requirements of the Corran service. The estimated contract value is not specified, and the tender details do not provide a contract duration or completion timeframe. Delivery is associated with the UKM6 region, covering the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, with the vessel intended for operation on the Corran Ferry route. The procurement information does not state a specific mandatory certification, licence, or supplier qualification requirement; bidders would therefore need to demonstrate the shipbuilding and detailed-design capability required to deliver the specified electric ferry.
