Schiphol prepares new tender procedure to finish pier A

Summary

Schiphol is preparing a new tender procedure for the completion of Pier A. After intensive consultation with the current contractor, the construction joint-venture Ballast-Nedam TAV, Schiphol decided to end the cooperation.

As announced during the presentation of the interim results this year, the completion of pier A is not proceeding as expected. We have had extensive discussions about this with the contractor, during which we did not reach an agreement. This is unfortunate for all parties. We are currently working on a plan to complete and deliver pier A with other contractors as soon as possible.
Hanne Buis, Chief Projects & Assets Officer at Royal Schiphol Group

This plan will include putting the majority of remaining scope of pier A out to tender. Once the tender procedure has been completed, Schiphol and the new contractors will make a schedule for the delivery of the pier.
