Heijmans wins 5-year Oost-Nederland waterway maintenance contract
The Dutch Ministry of Public Works and Waterways has
awarded Heijmans a five-year contract for the maintenance of
waterways in the central-eastern part of the Netherlands
(Oost-Nederland). The performance contract covers the Boven-Rijn
and Waal rivers and the Maas-Waal canal and represents a value of
around € 32 million for Heijmans.
Option to extend by three years The contract
became definitive on Monday, 25 January. In addition to the initial
term of five years, the contract includes an option to extend the
contract for an additional term of three years. From Q3 2021,
Heijmans will carry out daily work on the above-mentioned
waterways. This will include waterway maintenance (dredging), bank
maintenance (breakwaters, longitudinal dams, extended banks, bank
walls), the maintenance of pavements and moorings in overnight
mooring facilities), and the inspection, monitoring and repair of
damage and trouble-shooting.
Highest score for sustainability When deciding
on the tender, the Ministry of Public Works and Waterways looked
beyond the costs of the contract to companies’ potential
contribution to the improvement of the asset management and on the
sustainability front. On the basis of the Best Price-Quality Ratio,
Heijmans emerged as the best in these areas. On the sustainability
front, Heijmans scored the highest according to the so-called
Environmental Costs Indicator. The Ministry uses this benchmark –
which looks among other things at circularity – to reduce the total
environmental impact of the execution of a project.
