Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by Highways England, involves a tender for the "Ground Investigation Framework - National Lot," which falls under the site-investigation services category. This process was initiated through a selective procurement method, specifically a restricted procedure, and is located in the UK. The contracting process is complete, with contracts signed on 26 May 2020 for a total value of £31 million. This framework aims to support local authorities in England, and its primary objectives cover the investigation of geotechnical hazards and providing essential information for geotechnical and geo-environmental risk assessments.

Companies specialising in ground investigations, laboratory testing, and geotechnical consultancy, especially those capable of delivering significant projects valued over £2 million, would be well-positioned to compete for contracts under this framework. With the ongoing use of these services by local authorities and associated programmes, such as the Highways England Regional Investment Programme, this tender presents a valuable avenue for SMEs and large firms alike to expand their client base in the public sector.
