Geotechnical engineering services

Tender description

ESB requires professional geotechnical engineering services to support the delivery of energy or other projects in the Ireland and the UK. The professional geotechnical engineering services requirement is divided in to 3 lots: Lot 1: General geotechnical engineering support; Lot 2: Peat stability analysis; Lot 3: Geotechnical support on windfarm developments. Work arising under the frameworks will be awarded by mini-tender with the members of the appropriate framework. Lot 1 covers to a broad array of projects which would include office and on-site support Tasks likely to be carried out include: (i) develop risk assessments for the conditions associated with the work areas; (ii) carry out geotechnical assessments for design use on projects; (iii) provide design expertise; (iv) on site supervision of geotechnical surveys and conditions; (v) creating reports of geotechnical conditions; (vi) interpreting reports from geotechnical surveys; (vii) create geotechnical maps associating ground conditions which will be encountered on site. Lot 2 is restricted to Geotechnical support for projects which may or will encounter peat on site. Tasks likely to be carried include: (i) develop risk assessments for the peat conditions associated with the work areas; (ii) carry out geotechnical assessments for design use on projects; (iii) provide design expertise; (iv) on site supervision of geotechnical surveys and conditions; (v) creating reports of geotechnical conditions; (vi) interpreting reports from geotechnical surveys; (vii) mapping of peat on projects. Lot 3 is restricted to Geotechnical support on Windfarm Developments. Tasks likely to be carried out include: (i) develop risk assessments for the conditions associated with the work areas; (ii) carry out geotechnical assessments for design use on projects; (iii) provide design expertise; (iv) on site supervision of geotechnical surveys and conditions; (v) creating reports of geotechnical conditions and surveys; (vi) interpreting reports from geotechnical conditions and surveys; (vii) mapping of geotechnical conditions on projects.
