Summary of the contracting process

Network Rail Infrastructure Limited is the contracting authority for the "Wales and Western - Insights Diagnostics" project, focused on the rail industry in the United Kingdom. The procurement process, which is in the award stage as of 3rd April 2025, entails the subscription to Frauscher Insights Diagnostic System for the Network Rail Wales & Western Route. The contract period begins on 18th April 2025 and ends on 16th April 2028, with the potential for extension up to 2030. This direct award contract to Frauscher UK Limited, valued at £854,108 gross (£711,756 net), was chosen because Frauscher is the sole provider capable of delivering this bespoke diagnostic system. The system offers real-time diagnostics and predictive maintenance capabilities, essential for efficient rail operations.

This tender presents a lucrative business opportunity for companies specialising in data analysis services and rail infrastructure diagnostics. Although Frauscher UK Limited was awarded this specific contract due to its unique capabilities, businesses offering similar advanced diagnostic solutions or maintenance support services could find significant growth prospects in collaborating with major rail infrastructure organisations like Network Rail. The sector requires innovative and reliable technical solutions, suggesting that companies with expertise in predictive maintenance, real-time system monitoring, and large-scale infrastructure projects are well-suited to compete in such procurement processes.
