26 companies from all over the world including from Poland, Spain and Turkey have submitted tenders for preparatory works at the CPK Solidarity Transport Hub site. The estimated contract value is over PLN 1.7 billion (EUR 377 million).
The aim of the open tendering procedure is to select 8 companies/teams to be contracted by the STH to perform individual tasks under simplified executory procedures.
19 bids were submitted from 6 consortia (consisting of a total of 13 entities) and 13 companies acting alone. These are the largest construction companies in Poland and large companies from Europe and Asia, experienced in large infrastructure projects. A full list of companies that submitted tenders can be found on the SmartPZP Platform of the STH.
“The market has responded positively to our concept of working with contractors under framework agreements. As with other framework agreements, in the first stage of the procedure, after checking the formal criteria, we will mainly take into account the experience, financial and economic capacity and resources of the tenderers. However, the price and delivery time will play an important role in the executory contract procurement procedures,” STH CEO Mikołaj Wild said.
The scope of the contract includes preparatory works for the construction of the airport, among others, ground levelling, development of the construction site, construction of temporary facilities, demolitions, connections to the civil engineering infrastructure network for the needs of the investment and other works that do not require preparation of building plans.
The contractors will also submit notifications of construction works, geodetic works and preparing as-built documentation and will also prepare the design documentation and technical specifications for the execution and acceptance of construction works.
The STH company expects to start the preparatory works on the airport site in 2023 which will also coincide with the start of the main works. This will reduce delivery times and maintain the proper pace of the investment process.
In December 2021, STH announced its preferred location of the airport. It covers an area of approximately 41 sq km within the area of three communes – Baranów, Teresin and Wiskitki.
The framework agreement for construction works is another major tender of the STH company. In October 2021, a procedure for designing railway investments worth over PLN 7 billion (EUR 1.55 billion) was announced. And in January this year, a tender procedure was launched for a contract engineer, an entity which, on behalf of the STH company, will supervise individual stages of investment in the railway programme. The estimated value of this agreement is PLN 2.5 billion (EUR 554.5 million).
In the first phase, the CPK Solidarity Transport Hub will have two runways, each 4,000 m long. At the airport site, the investment is at the stage of advanced environmental and terrain studies, preparation of a Master Plan and purchase of real properties, and in the railway component– at the stage of preparation of feasibility studies for 1,300 km of planned lines including Warsaw-STH-Łódź-Wrocław-Czech border mainline and a building permit design for a long-distance tunnel in Łódź.
