UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Network Rail Infrastructure Limited is planning a procurement process for scaffolding services, indicated in their planned procurement notice. This procurement falls under the industry category of works and is specifically related to scaffolding work. The process is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for 26th October 2025. Based in London, with the head office located at Waterloo General Office, this procurement process is intended for projects within the UKI45 region. The contract period is tentatively planned from 1st November 2026 to 30th October 2030. The entire procurement is governed under the legal framework of UKPGA 2023/54 and is particularly significant as it involves a gross contract value of £9,600,000.

This procurement presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in scaffolding works, particularly those classified as SME (Small and Medium Enterprises) and VCSE (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises). Companies that specialise in construction and infrastructure development within the utilities sector could leverage this opportunity to expand their portfolio and establish a significant presence in public sector projects. Given the scale and duration of the contract, experienced contractors from across the UK are well-suited to compete and potentially benefit from the long-term engagement offered by Network Rail Infrastructure Limited.
