Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council has initiated a tender for the "WHC - Ground Survey Framework" to set up a procurement framework involving three contractors for ground surveys integral to various redevelopment and construction schemes across the borough. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 24th March 2017. This framework, classified under architectural, engineering, and surveying services, is anticipated to span three years, starting from 1st September 2017, with potential for a one-year extension. The framework will be utilised by several departments within the Council, specifically the Corporate Property and Housing departments, facilitating diverse projects including public buildings and affordable housing developments.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in land and building survey services, environmental assessments, and geotechnical investigations. Companies capable of conducting comprehensive surveys such as topographical, ground contamination studies, and flood risk assessments will be well-positioned to compete. Additionally, those familiar with restricted procurement procedures may find this opportunity particularly advantageous, as the successful bidders will engage in mini-competitions for each survey required. Such frameworks provide a steady stream of work, allowing businesses to grow and expand their service offerings within the local government sector.

Notice Title

WHC - Ground Survey Framework

Notice Description

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council has a number of redevelopment and construction schemes which may be rolled out across the Borough in the coming years. It is considered likely that ground surveys will be required for each of these schemes. To enable an efficient procurement route, the Council intends to set up a framework of three contractors to undertake these surveys. For each of the surveys a mini competition will take place. This mini competition will be awarded on the basis of the lowest compliant bid. The types of survey will include: LOT 1 (LAND SURVEYS AND SEARCHES) o Topographical surveys o Ground Penetrating Radar and Electromagnetic Location Surveys o Building floor plans and elevations, plotted to CAD (dwg format) o Underground services searches and surveys (utilities etc), plotted to CAD o Full drainage surveys, plotted to CAD o Flood risk assessment reports LOT 2 (GROUND CONTAMINATION) o Phase I Desk Study Environmental Report o Phase II Intrusive Investigation o Geotechnical examination to include surface and subsurface exploration, soil sampling, blow counts and if necessary laboratory analysis Whilst the copyright to the surveys will remain with the Contractor, the Council will have licence to use and publish the surveys as appropriate and assign to a third party (e.g. A building contractor), at no extra cost. The framework will be available to all departments of the Council, which is likely to include the Corporate Property department (predominately public buildings, retail, and commercial and mixed use schemes) and the Housing department (affordable housing). The frameworks will be for a period of three years, with the possibility to extend for a further year. Additional information: Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
