Description

Kier Transportation require a Subcontractor to undertake Geophysical Survey services. A geophysical survey is required to determine the bedrock profile and changes in physical properties of the materials to inform piling design in the central reservation. Boreholes in the area show a large discrepancy of levels over comparatively short distances. Non-intrusive testing is proposed to determine the rock levels where the physical GI was not undertaken. Note that works are undertaken on the M6 motorway in the Lune Gorge which is why the non-intrusive surveys are proposed. We will use the Build UK Common Assessment Criteria (CAS) to ensure a consistent minimum business competence. If your company possesses necessary qualifications and is interested in bidding for this project, please email Transportationprocurement@kier.co.uk with your company's portfolio, relevant experience, and references for further evaluation.
