Summary of the contracting process

Network Rail Infrastructure Ltd has concluded a procurement process for civil engineering support services, particularly pertaining to the assessment of a portfolio of buildings with various complexities in London. This tender, tagged under award and contract, pertains to the services category and utilises a selective procurement methodology known as the restricted procedure. The procurement reached the award stage with the legal basis grounded in European procurement rules (CELEX 32014L0024), and the contracts were signed on 24th March 2025. Two distinct lots were initially proposed: Southern Region Buildings Assessments for lower complexity assets, and CP7 Buildings Assessments for higher complexity assets. However, both lots were marked as cancelled within the tender documentation. The project encompasses architectural and building-surveying services, with delivery set exclusively within the UK region.

This tender provides substantial business growth opportunities due to the sizeable contract value of £14,500,000 per awarded lot. Aecom Ltd and Cardinal Engineering Ltd benefitted from this award, signalling strong opportunities for both large and small-medium enterprises in sectors related to civil engineering or architectural services. Businesses excelling in managing traffic considerations and interfacing with public or TOC systems, particularly those with experience in navigating higher complexity portfolios, would find themselves well-positioned for similar future contracts. The procurement process was inclusive of GPA coverage, stressing the importance of international standards, potentially expanding reach for businesses looking to grow internationally through public sector contracts.
