Coalsnaughton Support Engineering Consultancy work packages 1 - 5

This award is intended to inform that a Call off from the MRA Engineering Services Framework has taken place. The award is for a programme of services designed to support the transition stage from the Emergency response into the Stage 2 Remediation and beyond. There are a total of five work streams which hold interdependencies across the incident. Not all of the work streams have yet begun but they will all run for around 18 months or until the incident is judged to have been resolved. WSP were appointed to support the emergency response in relation to the critical incident in Coalsnaughton, Phase 1 of the project. They were engaged via a call-off contract from the Mining Remediation Authority's (MRA) Engineering Services Framework to deliver an assessment of the causation of the subsidence and ground movement which would assist in the determination of liability for the incident. As the causation was determined to be the result of historic coal mining, the project moved into a transition phase, where works on site continued while the MRA assessed the optimal approach to delivering the remedial works. Phase 2 covers the delivery of remedial works until project completion. Phase 1 - Emergency Response & Causation Transition - Scoping and Optioneering Phase 2 - Site Remediation We require the continuation of WSP's services during the transition phase to build on knowledge acquired during Phase 1 in order to provide engineering solutions, optioneering and management support for different areas of the site. In order to ensure delivery of commitments to the community are met, knowledge acquired is retained and value for money is achieved.
