Norway – Construction work for water and sewage pipelines – Framework agreement for sheet piling and shotcrete

The Agency for Water and Sewerage Works (VAV) is in the planning phase of the above mentioned procurement. VAV carries out construction works with its own crew, mainly for excavation projects. For such work, VAV needs a framework agreement where tenderers can assist with securing large and smaller building and site pits for sheet piling and shotcrete. The aim is to ensure good HSE conditions and safe working conditions in building pits where no ditch box is used. The framework agreement shall also include renovation of manholes with shotcrete in cases where sheet piling cannot be used as a securing method. The contracting authority also considers including a voluntary option for controlled drilling. The competition is planned to be held during spring 2026. We would like feedback from the market when planning the procurement. See the annexes. Responses can be sent by message in Artifik. VAV would like to thank the tenderers in advance for their participation in the market survey.
