In plain English

The HS2 project (via Eiffage Kier JV) needs a specialist bricklayer/blockwork subcontractor to build masonry walls and partitions for a tunnel portal building in the Wendover area. The contract is worth £500k–£1m and involves supply, installation, and all labour.

What the buyer wants

• Supply and install concrete blockwork (440×215×140mm) for external perimeter walls and internal partitions • Provide all management, supervision, plant, labour, materials and temporary works • Install associated items: stainless steel reinforcement, masonry ties, padstones, concrete lintels, fire stopping, and sand/cement skirting

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This is a specialist subcontract on a major national infrastructure project (HS2); most small general builders without proven experience on large civils schemes, formal H&S systems, and ability to pass HS2's stringent compliance vetting will struggle to compete or be rejected at pre-qualification stage.
