Summary of the contracting process

The West Midlands Combined Authority has recently concluded a procurement process titled "Network Rail Record Access" in the railway transport services industry category. The procurement, managed under a single tender action due to its below-threshold nature, aimed to provide access to Network Rail records and resources to support station development phases. The tender was valued at GBP 36,287. The contract period began on 1st August 2024 and is set to end on 6th April 2025. The procurement has moved past the tender and award stages and is currently marked as complete. The principal location for the contract deliverables is Birmingham, with the postal code B19 3SD.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in railway transport services, particularly those with a keen interest in station development and access to infrastructure records. Large enterprises such as Network Rail Infrastructure Limited, which has been awarded the contract, would find this tender ideal due to the nature of direct and specialised services required. Moreover, suppliers capable of flexibility and compliance with detailed procedural requirements would be well-suited to compete in similar future opportunities. This procurement underscores the value of having niche expertise in the rail transport sector, which can facilitate long-term partnerships with public authorities such as the West Midlands Combined Authority.
