The tender process for Guernsey and Jersey’s new passenger and freight ferry services has begun.
The States of Guernsey and Jersey released a joint statement yesterday, which said the governments are now officially inviting formal tenders via an online application portal.
The window for applications will last until 8 July.
“We have completed the initial market testing phase of this procurement process, and now we are inviting formal tenders from interested applicants,” said Deputy Neil Inder, Guernsey’s President of Economic Development.
“We remain on track to complete the overall process and make a final decision before the end of the year, in time for when the current agreement ends.
“This is an open and impartial procurement process being run jointly by Guernsey and Jersey, and we thereforedon’t intend to providean ongoing commentary or engage in speculation whileit’s taking place. But we will provide the community with any significant updates as the process continues.”
