Description

This procurement is for the establishment of a Framework Agreement with two Lots. HS2 Ltd intends to appoint 10 Ground Investigation Contractors (GICs) to Lot 2 although reserves the right to appoint a fewer or greater number of GICs in the circumstances described in the procurement documents made available by HS2 Ltd with the Contract Notice (see PQP Appendix A3). Lot 2 is for the acquisition of geotechnical, hydrogeological and geo-environmental data through surveys, the excavation and detailed logging of exploratory holes, and in-situ and laboratory testing, culminating in the production of factual reports across the Phase Two route, some land of which will be in areas of historic mining. The Framework Agreement is intended to have a duration of 8 years with works/services anticipated to be undertaken over a four-year period during that term although works/services may extend over a longer period and further HS2 Ltd will retain the option to extend the Framework Agreement for a further two years in the event of delays to the GI programme. Further details are in the Contract Notice and accompanying procurement documents. See also separate Contract Finder Notice for details of Lot 1.
