UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

TransPennine Trains Limited is undertaking a procurement process titled "Additional PCSO's" with the main objective of enhancing security presence at TransPennine Express stations. The procurement focuses on public security services, specifically to provide additional Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) at these locations. The procurement process, which falls under the industry category of public security, law, and order services, has reached the "award" stage with a direct award procurement method. TransPennine Trains, located in Manchester, is the buying organization, and the successful supplier is the British Transport Police Authority. The current contract, awarded on 11th November 2025, is set to run from 7th November 2025 to 31st October 2027, with an initial value of £3,146,400 GBP, and an option for extension up to a maximum period ending on 31st October 2030.

This procurement presents growth opportunities for businesses specializing in public security solutions, particularly those with expertise in transport security and community safety. By partnering with organizations like British Transport Police Authority, businesses can gain significant exposure within key UK regions, including UKM, UKC, and UKD. Firms that excel in community engagement, safeguarding, and crime prevention would be well-suited to compete in this sector. The direct award method and specific focus on railway and transport security highlight the need for experienced providers already familiar with the UK's transport network, potentially increasing the scope for additional collaborations and service enhancements in future contracts.
