Summary of the contracting process

Translink, a trading name under the Northern Ireland Transport Holding Company, has completed the procurement process for a framework titled "FW111 - Fencing and Boundary Works." This contract, classified under the industry category "Erection of fencing" within the works procurement category, was carried out in Belfast, United Kingdom. The process employed a selective procurement method through a restricted procedure. The tender aimed to appoint eight suppliers divided into two lots, focusing on "Stock Proof Fencing" and "Security Fencing". The latest contracts were signed on 8th May 2025, marking the transition from tender to the award stage, with the award status for both lots being active.

This procurement opportunity creates substantial business growth potential for suppliers in the construction and maintenance sectors, particularly those specialising in fencing and related infrastructure works. The framework agreement allows for the involvement of up to four suppliers, offering chances for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as evidenced by the involvement of suppliers like ON TRACK TECHNICIANS LTD and CHARLES BRAND GROUP LIMITED. Businesses adept in urban railway works and safety equipment installation will find this tender particularly suitable, and the project's framework arrangement promises steady work aligned with Translink's capital and maintenance programme needs.
