UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, facilitated by Transport UK East Midlands Limited, involves the direct award of a contract for the "Provision of Online Retailing WebTIS Services", focusing on internet retailing services for rail tickets. Located in London, the buyer operates as a private utility, and the engagement is significant due to its extension nature. The procurement falls under the services category with a legal basis rooted in UK legislation (2023/54). The contract was awarded to Trainline.com Limited, a large-scale supplier, with a gross contract value of £4,104,000. The process is currently in the award stage, with key dates including the contract period from 27th July 2026 to 26th July 2028 and the standstill period ending on 9th July 2026.

This tender opens avenues for businesses specialising in IT services, including consulting, software development, and support, to demonstrate their capabilities in the context of public utilities. Companies with proven capabilities in delivering reliable, scalable, and innovative internet retailing solutions would find this opportunity beneficial for growth. Given the focus on direct awards, businesses familiar with the incumbent systems and those capable of integrating seamlessly with existing infrastructure will hold a competitive advantage, avoiding operational differences and cost duplications as noted in the procurement rationale. This presents a notable chance for IT firms already engaged with large public or private utilities to extend their influence and showcase their service efficiency.
