## Summary

The public procurement process involves Corserv Limited, acting on behalf of Cormac Solutions, which is seeking to appoint a qualified contractor for "Diving, Confined Space & Remote Camera Inspections of Highway Structures". This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focused on diving and bridge-inspection services, and is located in England, United Kingdom. The tender was published on 20 December 2021, with a closing date for submissions on 31 January 2022. The contract will run for an initial 2 years starting from 1 April 2022, with a potential extension of up to 2 additional years. The chosen supplier will be selected based on a mix of price, quality, and social value, using an open procedure for the procurement method.

This opportunity offers significant potential for businesses engaged in specialised inspection and diving services, particularly those with expertise in confined space operations and remote camera technology. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as they can contribute effectively to such niche services while demonstrating their capabilities to a public authority. The successful contractor will not only deliver essential safety and maintenance inspections for public infrastructure but also position themselves as a key player in an ongoing public sector initiative focused on ensuring the integrity of highway structures.

## Notice

Corserv on behalf of Cormac Solutions wishes to appoint a suitably qualified, competent and experienced contractor to provide a service for diving, confined space and remote camera inspections of highway structures. Cormac Solutions is responsible for the inspection and maintenance of highway structures which mainly take the form of bridges, culverts and retaining walls. All highway bridges and culverts which are the responsibility of Cormac Solutions receive a biennial general inspection. Approximately 20% of these structures present problems of access so that a diving or remote camera inspection is required as part of the general inspection. Cormac Solutions wishes to appoint an appropriately trained and qualified engineer working for a company which specialises in this type of work. This contract enables such a programme of inspections to take place and a full picture of the condition of all highway structures to be ascertained. The contract will initially be for 2 years with an optional extension for a further 2 year term. The intention is to appoint the most economically advantageous tenderer based on 60% Price, 30% Quality and 10% Social Value.
