Highways England (HE) has a legal obligation to ensure that archaeological remains are preserved, and recorded where new roads, motorway widening projects and trunk road improvements are built by providing appropriate archaeological expertise, advice on design and contract documentation, supervising, monitoring, search and recovery and reporting progress on all stages of work.
HE has highlighted the need for an archaeology framework with technically competent, capacity enabled suppliers, to provide a consistent route across programmes/directorates, drive savings and build direct relationships with suppliers. The framework will be enabled for use by Highways England other Contractors.
The framework will be composed of six lots. Work orders will be undertaken through lots 1a, 2a and 3a with values based on individual Schemes within each lot:
Lot 1a: up to GBP 2 million,
Lot 2a: GBP 2 million - <GBP 5 million,
Lot 3a: GBP 5 million or more.
Time charge orders will be undertaken through lots 1b 2b and 3b.
Additional information:
The total value of the framework is an estimate of the total approximate value of spend for the duration of the framework.
