Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Mining Remediation Authority has issued a contract for Wireline Geophysical Logging Services, a crucial requirement in the services sector of the mining industry. Located in Nottinghamshire, the Authority is undertaking the extension of a framework agreement initially set for two years from December 2023, now prolonged to run until November 2027, effectively making it 3 years and 11 months in total. The framework addresses the logging service needs across various UK regions including UKC, UKD, UKE, and more. Key suppliers, such as Igne and others, are involved, reflecting the active award status. This extension is necessary due to unforeseen delays in site selection for geologging surveys and intends to effectively utilise half the framework's originally expected value.

The tender offers a significant growth opportunity for businesses involved in logging services, particularly those experienced in geophysical surveys for mining applications. SMEs, like the contracted suppliers Igne, European Geophysical Services Ltd, and others, are well-suited given the open procurement method that considers criteria beyond price, such as availability and technical capability. The extended timeframe offers substantial opportunities for continued and increased participation in providing services across numerous regions in the UK. Businesses ready to compete must meet performance expectations detailed in the tender documents, positioning them for long-term collaboration with the Mining Remediation Authority.
