Civils Contracts and Tenders

Search live portals for civils, groundworks and civil engineering keywords, or track the buyers directly. On Stotles, you can search by keyword across every portal in one place, see civils packages the day they publish, and set alerts so a new drainage or earthworks tender reaches you before the closing date creeps up. For more, explore the platform.

A civils package usually covers groundworks, earthworks, drainage, site preparation and the below-ground work a build needs before the main contractor starts on structures. On rail and highways schemes it can also include ground stabilisation, culverts and surface works. Buyers procure it as its own contract as often as they fold it into a wider construction or maintenance framework.

The core code is 45200000, works for complete or part construction and civil engineering work. Drainage-specific packages use 45232452, drainage works. Buyers mix these with codes for whatever trade the civils work is supporting, so a single tender can carry several.

There are civils tenders open for bids right now, thousands already awarded, and a large pipeline sitting at pre-tender stage across the corpus Stotles tracks. That is on top of the notices still moving through the closed stage before an award gets confirmed. The results on this page are queried live, so treat those as the current answer rather than this text.

Both happen. Councils and housing providers often run civils and drainage as one lot inside a repairs or maintenance framework. Rail and highways programmes tend to carve civils out as a delivery contract in its own right, covering earthworks, drainage and ground stabilisation ahead of the main works.
