Merchants' Quay, St Helier Jersey - identification and appointment of a development partner

The objective of the market engagement document is to enable potential development partners to provide insights and recommendations to Ports of Jersey in respect of its approach to the Opportunity.

Ports of Jersey may, at its discretion, invite certain organisations to participate in market engagement events on Monday 22 September and Tuesday 23 September 2025 in Jersey and/or in London on or around 15 October 2025.

These events will likely include: (i) a Site visit (in Jersey), and (ii) discussions with Ports of Jersey in a one-to-one setting to allow organisations to better understand the Opportunity, ask questions, and provide initial thoughts. This will provide Ports of Jersey with the opportunity to confidentially discuss the feedback provided in more detail, and support Ports of Jersey to shape its thinking on the Opportunity, competitive process and contract.

Ports of Jersey intends to run a process that upholds similar principles to public procurement, and which engages potential development partners in a manner that is consistent with the spirit of a fair, transparent, and collaborative competitive process.

At this stage, Ports of Jersey intends to use a flexible, competitive process that will allow for solutions to be developed iteratively to help ensure the highest quality of final proposals.

Organisations should note that engaging in this pre-market engagement exercise, including in particular completing and returning a questionnaire response, is not a prerequisite to participating in any subsequent competitive process. In this regard, Ports of Jersey intends to make all market engagement documents available to organisations once any competitive process has commenced.

Participation in this market engagement exercise (including attendance at a market engagement event) will be at each organisation's own cost. No expense in responding to this process will be reimbursed by Ports of Jersey.

This market engagement exercise and any associated documents or communications should not be regarded as an investment recommendation by Ports of Jersey or its appointed advisers. No information contained in the documents or in any communication made between Ports of Jersey and any organisation in connection with the market engagement exercise shall be relied upon as constituting a contract, agreement or representation that any contract shall be awarded.

To ensure we take the right procurement approach, we would like to understand the current market interest in this opportunity.

If you would be interested in submitting a response to this Opportunity, please register your interest via the advert on the Proactis e-tendering platform "Procontract" via the link provided, where you will be directed to the Market Engagement documentation.
