Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kier Transportation Limited is procuring survey control works for Schemes 1 and 2 of the A66 Northern Trans-Pennine upgrade. The requirement covers topographical surveying, surveying services, and monitoring and control services associated with the scheme. The wider project will convert single-lane sections of the 80-kilometre route between the M6 and the A1 into dual carriageway and improve key junctions. The survey control work is classified as works and will be delivered in the North West of England. The A66 project is being delivered collaboratively by Balfour Beatty, Kier and Keltbray, with Kier Infrastructure seeking subcontractors for this package. It is intended for experienced and qualified subcontractors able to support survey control activities on major highway infrastructure works.

The process reached tender: Kier invited offers through a limited competitive quotation procedure below the public procurement threshold. Bids were due by 24 July 2026 at 17:00. The contract period set by the buyer runs from 7 September 2026 to 23 October 2026. The stated contract value is £10,000. The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The buyer will use the Build UK Common Assessment Criteria to establish a consistent minimum level of business competence. Interested companies were asked to provide a company portfolio, relevant experience and references for further evaluation. The evaluation basis therefore centres on meeting the required competence standard and demonstrating relevant capability and previous work through the requested evidence.

This opportunity suits specialist surveying subcontractors with experience of survey control on highways, transport infrastructure or similarly complex construction projects. Suppliers should be qualified to undertake topographical surveying, establish and maintain reliable survey control, and support monitoring and control activities across multiple scheme areas. Strong candidates will be able to demonstrate relevant technical delivery through a company portfolio, examples of comparable work and client or project references. The requirement is aimed at businesses that can work effectively as part of a major project delivered by Tier 1 contractors and coordinate with the wider construction team. It may suit capable SMEs with established surveying staff, appropriate technical systems, documented quality controls and the competence to satisfy the Build UK Common Assessment Criteria.
