Further information on the procurement and on the Scope (Core and Optional Scope), Contracting Bodies and anticipated timing and value of Call-Off Contracts is included in the PQP and accompanying procurement documents.

Additional information: Applicants are referred to VI.3) Additional information in this Contract Notice below. Section III: Legal, economic, financial and technical information III.1) Conditions for participation III.1.1) Suitability to pursue the professional activity, including requirements relating to enrolment on professional or trade registers

Options: 1) HS2 Ltd reserves the right to omit and/or vary the scope. As further described in the PQP documents and in the accompanying PQP Outline Scope document, Applicants should note in particular that the scope may include Optional Scope (as described in II.2.4). 2) Option to extend the term of the Framework Agreement The term of the Framework Agreement will be for an initial term of eight years although HS2 Ltd reserves the right to extend the term of the Framework Agreement for up to a further two years to make a maximum possible term of ten years. HS2 Ltd reserves the right to extend the term of the Framework Agreement from eight to ten years if one or more Station Contracts is delayed so that the anticipated timing of the call-offs set out in the PQP Outline Scope document cannot be achieved within the initial eight-year term.
