## Summary

The Scottish Water is currently seeking tenders for "Road Coring Services," covering geotechnical engineering services across Scotland. The procurement process is in the active Tender stage, with the tender period ending on 1st July 2021 and the contract scheduled to commence on 15th October 2021, lasting until 15th October 2025. This selective procurement method involves a negotiated procedure, with an estimated contract value of £520,000. To participate, interested parties should note that they will need to undertake both on-site road coring and laboratory testing services.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) aiming to expand their service offerings in the geotechnical engineering sector. Companies that specialise in laboratory testing, road coring, or a combination of both would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, benefitting from a solid workload throughout the project's duration, with demands arising both ad hoc and through a structured programme of work.

## Notice

This framework will cover the provision of road coring services on a pan-Scotland basis including laboratory testing of the core samples extracted on behalf of Scottish Water or its delivery partners. Both the on-site road coring services and the laboratory testing services are required to be undertaken by the same company. Service provision will apply to both a programme of work and on an ad hoc basis as required and with a 1-week turnaround time where requested.
