Summary of the contracting process

Kilnbridge Construction Services Ltd is inviting tenders for a project titled "Material Testing, Environmental Engineer Geo Tech - C4- KCSL" under the industry category "Research, testing and scientific technical simulator" and "Research and testing facilities construction work." The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with the closing date for tender submissions set for 31st January 2025. The project is based in London, UK, and involves extensive concrete material testing, environmental engineering, and geotechnical assessments. The contract period is scheduled to start on 2nd June 2025 and end on 30th June 2028. The estimated budget for this project ranges between £500,000 and £1,000,000.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for firms specialising in construction materials testing, environmental services, and geotechnical engineering. Businesses with expertise in compliance with British Standards (e.g., BS EN 12350-2, BS 1377-9) will find this project particularly relevant. The extensive scope of work - from slump and compressive strength testing of concrete to non-destructive testing and environmental compliance - offers potential for growth, particularly for established firms seeking long-term contracts in the London area. Given the project's requirements, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find it challenging to compete unless they possess highly specialised capabilities in the specified testing and compliance areas.
