Summary of the contracting process

Transport for London is buying station infrastructure improvement works at London Underground stations. The scope is divided into staircase tactile installation, timber canopies and platform remediation. These are civil engineering and construction works, covering improvements to passenger platforms and station structures. The awarded works are in London. The procurement was arranged in three lots, allowing each type of work to be considered separately; staircase tactiles and platform remediation were combined in one award, while timber canopies were awarded separately.

The procurement is complete following an open, below-threshold competition. The bid submission deadline was 1 October 2025. Cleshar Contract Services Limited was awarded the staircase tactiles and platform remediation work on 26 June 2026, for £1,320,806 excluding VAT (£1,584,967 including VAT). Its contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 20 July 2027. Hulkro Limited was awarded the timber canopy work on 13 October 2026, for £363,431 excluding VAT (£436,117 including VAT); its contract runs from 2 November 2026 to 1 November 2027. Each lot was evaluated separately at the initial stage, with detailed award criteria set out in the tender documents. All three lots were identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

This outcome shows that Transport for London buys station-specific construction and civil engineering work across tactile stairway surfaces, timber canopies and platform repairs. Suppliers suited to future work should be able to deliver safely and reliably in operational London Underground stations, coordinating construction activity around passenger and railway requirements. Relevant capability may include station platform remediation, installation of tactile surfaces, or fabrication and fitting of timber canopies; firms should focus on the work package matching their expertise. The buyer awarded the canopy package separately from the combined staircase and platform package, so a supplier may be credible through a focused specialism rather than covering every work type. The three packages were considered suitable for SMEs, and the awards went to two suppliers identified as SMEs. A competitive supplier would need the technical workforce, site management and delivery capacity appropriate to its chosen package.»} DONT FINAL?
