## Summary

Scottish Water is currently seeking bids for their tender titled "Road Coring Services," aimed at providing geotechnical engineering services across Scotland. The procurement process is in the active tender stage, with a submission deadline that has already passed as of 31 May 2021. This framework contract is designed to include laboratory testing of core samples extracted as part of road coring services, which are required to be conducted by the same company. The contract is expected to commence on 15 October 2021 and will run for a duration of four years, concluding on 15 October 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in geotechnical engineering, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies capable of providing both on-site road coring and laboratory testing services will be well-positioned to compete in this framework. Given the broad geographical coverage across Scotland, businesses that can operate effectively in various locations within the region should find this tender particularly appealing for growth and expansion.

## 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.
