As of September 22, 2025, lot 2: Technical Advice of the new Cooperation Framework Agreement Engineering Services 2 (SROK ID 2) will come into effect. This completes the tendering of SROK Engineering Services 2. The other lots commenced on September 1, 2025.
Rijkswaterstaat Awards SROK Engineering Services 2
This framework agreement plays an important role in the execution of the major renewal task that Rijkswaterstaat is facing.
Collaborating on the Task
With SROK ID 2, Rijkswaterstaat and the market build on the foundation laid by the first generation of SROKs. The six joint objectives from 2021 remain guiding: a healthy sector, well-considered assignments, job satisfaction, sustainable relationships, knowledge development, and contributions to sustainability. Also read the award report SROK Project and Process Control 2.
‘With this new framework agreement, we are taking an important step to tackle our major renewal task together with the market. In selecting parties, we paid extra attention to technical expertise, for the optimal match between assignments and the expertise of market parties. We look forward to the collaboration in the coming years.’ - Karin van de Meer, acting director Technique Large Projects and Maintenance (GPO) at Rijkswaterstaat
Focus Areas
The largest lot within SROK ID 2 is lot 1: Engineering Services for Projects and Programs. This lot is intended for the large integral, multidisciplinary assignments, such as planning and advising Rijkswaterstaat during the execution phase of projects (technical back office).
It encompasses all maintenance, construction, and renewal projects of Rijkswaterstaat. To ensure the right technical expertise, lot 1 is organized into eight focus areas, based on area and object types. Market parties had to qualify for this. This has created better coherence between the specific task and the available expertise of market parties.
Three New Research Lots
With SROK ID 2, three new lots have been introduced: soil research, conservation research, and geotechnical research. By requesting these studies separately, we can exert more control over the uniformity and quality of the studies.
This contributes to bringing the area data of Rijkswaterstaat in order, and thus serves a project-overarching interest.
