Summary of the contracting process

C2C Railway Limited is seeking a contractor to replace the existing footbridge between Platforms 1 and 2 at West Horndon station. The project is for a new covered Beacon station footbridge, including passenger lifts. This is railway construction work, covering footbridge construction and lift installation, at West Horndon station in Essex. The requirement is a single integrated station infrastructure project rather than a purchase of equipment alone: the bridge replacement and passenger lifts are both part of the described scope.

C2C invited offers through a two-stage competitive flexible procedure. Suppliers first complete a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ); up to 15 of those who meet participation conditions and achieve the highest technical PSQ scores are invited to tender. The expression-of-interest deadline was 11:00 on 23 October 2026. The estimated award decision date is 8 January 2027, and the contract period is 22 January 2027 to 31 March 2028. The estimated value is £4.5 million excluding VAT (£5.4 million including VAT). Evaluation weights technical quality at 54.93%, social value at 10.07% and commercial price at 35%.

The opportunity is suited to contractors with the capability and capacity to deliver railway infrastructure construction, replace station footbridges and install passenger lifts. Suppliers need to demonstrate their economic and technical standing through the PSQ and meet its conditions of participation; technical PSQ performance determines which suppliers proceed to tender. The tender stage evaluates qualification, technical and commercial responses alongside social value, so bidders should be equipped to evidence delivery quality and relevant social value as well as competitive pricing. The project is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, making it relevant to firms able to undertake this station-scale works package, either directly or as part of a delivery team.
