Summary of the contracting process

ScotRail Trains Limited procured a single-supplier framework for labour-only glass replacement on rolling stock. The primary requirement covers Class 170 trains at Haymarket Depot in Edinburgh and Classes 334 and 380 at Shields Depot in Glasgow, with the potential to include other ScotRail train classes. Services must comply with ScotRail Vehicle Maintenance Instructions. The work falls within railway repair, maintenance and associated services. ScotRail Trains Limited, based in Glasgow, is the buying organisation. Delivery is centred on the two named depots, requiring suppliers to work in an operational rail-maintenance environment and support the replacement of train glazing rather than supply glass or other materials.

The procurement used a selective negotiated procedure with a prior call for competition. It was structured as a single-supplier framework, with three candidates selected for the second stage and no variants permitted. The tender deadline was 12:00 on 20 May 2026, and bids were to remain valid until 31 December 2026. The estimated procurement value was £450,000 GBP. The proposed contract term was 1,080 days, with up to two optional one-year extensions. The award was made on 30 June 2026 to Assenta Ltd. The contract was signed on 29 July 2026 and is active. The procurement included economic and technical selection criteria. The lot is recorded as cancelled, despite the active award and contract.

This procurement demonstrates demand from ScotRail for specialist, labour-only rolling-stock glazing work delivered at named Scottish depots. A credible competitor would need practical experience replacing train glass, the skills and equipment to work safely around operational railway vehicles, and the capacity to support Class 170, 334 and 380 fleets or adapt to other ScotRail classes. Familiarity with vehicle maintenance instructions and the discipline to work to ScotRail’s technical requirements would be important. Suppliers able to provide reliable depot-based teams, manage varied rolling-stock requirements and operate through electronic ordering, invoicing and payment arrangements would be well placed when ScotRail next reviews this requirement.
