It is targeted towards public authority central government in the United Kingdom, specifically focusing on areas affected by past mining activities. Market engagement sessions are planned for stakeholders to discuss the new framework, which will potentially introduce new lots and suppliers. Interested parties should contact Natalie Earnshaw at the Authority, with these sessions scheduled for completion by 31 August 2025 deadline. The procurement process will be subject to a separate advertisement, with a contract notice expected in June 2026. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in engineering and consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in civil, structural, geotechnical, and environmental engineering associated with mining remediation. The framework will cover numerous regions in the UK, offering substantial growth potential for firms capable of managing diverse mining-related responsibilities. SMEs may find suitability in competing for the various lots, particularly those focusing on niche areas such as hydrology or hydrogeology, alongside more conventional engineering services. Engaging in the upcoming market sessions could offer strategic insights for businesses aiming to enhance their proposal submissions once the contract goes to tender. ## Notice The current Engineering Services Framework consists of eleven lots and is due to expire in June 2026, we are therefore preparing to introduce a new framework to cover the current services with the potential to introduce new lots where required. The new framework will seek to appoint suppliers for the provision of services on an as and when required basis, predominantly in relation to the effects of past mining liabilities and other areas of responsibility of the Mining Remediation Authority. Services required will include, but not be limited to - Investigation into the causes of failure, condition assessment, damage quantification and solution design for damage to roads, bridges, buildings, drainage land etc. caused by past mining. - The areas of expertise may include civil, structural, geotechnical, mining, mechanical and electrical engineering, also environmental, health and safety, contract procurement, agricultural and specialist land drainage advice relating to past coal mining subsidence liabilities and other specialist service areas such as hydrology and hydrogeology.
