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.

Delivery: South West · Cornwall.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Diving, Confined Space & Remote Camera Inspections of Highway Structures” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
