Summary of the contracting process

Transport for London (TfL) is engaged in the planning stage for the "Waterloo Platform Train Interface Design and Build" project. Located in London, this procurement falls under the industry category of construction work, aiming to improve platform train interface issues at Waterloo Underground station. Expected to span from 16th March 2026 to 15th September 2027, the procurement is positioned within a special utilities regime and is described as being below threshold. Although a previous tender was withdrawn, the project is in the planning phase with an anticipated further notice date set for 3rd November 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in construction and infrastructure enhancement. With a total project value approximating £4 million, it is especially suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) thanks to the explicitly stated suitability considerations. Engaging in this project can provide growth by expanding business portfolios in public infrastructure and enhancing client credibility through association with a prominent organisation like TfL.
