Summary of the contracting process

The Mining Remediation Authority, a central government public authority located in Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom, is seeking bids for the "North Pennines - Survey of raw water main." This active procurement process falls under the services category and involves site-investigation services on a remote site in the North Pennines. The tender, valued at £60,000 gross, with an open procurement method below the threshold, invites participants to conduct trial holes and a CCTV survey of a raw water main to assess its suitability for trenchless rehabilitation. Key dates include an enquiry period ending 1st July 2025 and a tender submission deadline on 8th July 2025. The contract period is scheduled to start on 11th August 2025 and may extend until 31st March 2026, if necessary conditions arise.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses within the site investigation services industry, particularly those that specialise in infrastructure assessments and trenchless technology. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are explicitly considered suitable for this contract, encouraging wider participation from smaller entities. Businesses equipped with technical expertise to handle complex assessments and meet stringent safety standards are well-suited to compete, given the price and quality assessment metrics (50/50 split) and the required compliance with safety norms. The ongoing nature of this work, including potential renewal in light of site conditions, provides further chances for businesses to offer continuation services.
