UK3 - Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Network Rail Infrastructure Limited intends to establish a framework for one supplier to provide a complete CCTV and security service across the Wales Route. The work covers deployment, operation and maintenance of remote-deployed and other CCTV surveillance systems, including communications, data connectivity, alarms, night-time coverage, footage access and permanent or semi-permanent cameras. It also covers maintenance of cameras, trailers and related assets, plus mobile and static patrols and urgent security deployments at stations, depots, lineside locations and other Network Rail premises. Services will support trespass management, vandalism, antisocial behaviour, theft, station security, suicide prevention, welfare incidents and major-incident response. This is a security services procurement delivered across Wales.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Network Rail has stated its intention to procure and has not issued an invitation to tender. It expects to use a selective competitive flexible procedure for a framework, with one lot and one supplier. The estimated value is £3.2 million excluding VAT (£3.84 million including VAT). The market search is expected to conclude on 12 August 2026; the expression-of-interest stage is expected to run for five working days from 12 August, with responses due by 19 August 2026. The combined selection and award stage is expected to start by 26 August 2026, with award expected by 27 November 2026. The initial contract is planned for 27 November 2026 to 26 November 2028, with up to six 12-month extensions, potentially lasting until 26 November 2034.

The procurement is suited to security contractors able to deliver an integrated railway CCTV, equipment-maintenance and patrol operation rather than only one specialist element. Relevant capability includes 24-hour, 365-day surveillance and patrol coverage, remote camera deployment, alarm response, footage management, asset maintenance, trespass and anti-theft work, railway policing support, station security and major-incident response. Suppliers will need the relevant Railway Industry Supplier Qualification Scheme capabilities, covering security services, security equipment, railway policing services and asset protection; holding any individual code is acceptable, but the full service scope must be deliverable. By award, bidders must be able to obtain Sentinel Personal Track Safety and the applicable Security Industry Authority licence, and meet Network Rail training, fatigue-management, working-time and reporting requirements. SMEs and VCSEs are identified as suitable, with participation reserved to sheltered workshops.
