Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council, the largest local authority in England, is initiating the "Drainage Capital Works Framework" tender aimed at addressing a backlog of drainage schemes across the county. This procurement falls under the category of "Ground-drainage work," with a total budget not exceeding £4.5 million over the framework period. The tender process, set to conclude on 20th December 2019, employs an open procedure to select contractors. The framework is scheduled to commence on 1st April 2020 and will last for an initial 18 months, with a potential extension of 12 months.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in drainage construction and maintenance, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can provide the necessary resources and services for highway drainage maintenance projects. Contractors offering services related to the installation and repair of drainage systems, such as drains, culverts, and manholes, as well as those capable of undertaking associated traffic management operations, would be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this framework could lead to sustained contracts and contribute to the growth of these businesses in the public works sector.
