Testing of Highway Materials

Lancashire County Council seeks to establish a multi-supplier framework for laboratory and on-site testing of highway materials, divided into four lots: Lot 1 (laboratory testing, £200k over 4 years), Lot 2 (on-site testing, £280k over 4 years), Lot 3 (on-site and lab testing for street works, £280k over 4 years), and Lot 4 (mini-competitions for bespoke testing, £240k over 4 years). The initial term is 2 years with a possible 2-year extension. Suppliers must be capable of performing tests fundamental to highway construction and maintenance. No specific certifications or set-asides are mentioned.
