Summary of the contracting process

Transport for London (TfL) selected a delivery partner for a capital renewals programme across London Overground, London Trams, the Docklands Light Railway and the Elizabeth line. The work covers detailed design followed, potentially, by construction and delivery, with works organised in tranches. It concerns rail infrastructure construction and renewals, alongside related engineering, electrical and mechanical installation, communications equipment installation, construction-related services, monitoring and control, and architectural services. The work is for TfL’s rail and sponsored services in London. The contract is intended to deliver a programme of renewals across these networks; progression from design to construction is conditional rather than automatic.

The procurement is complete and the award is to Amey Rail Limited under TfL’s Infrastructure Improvement Framework, using a selective framework call-off allocation process. The award is pending. The award date was 22 September 2026. The stated contract value is £77.05 million excluding VAT (£92.46 million including VAT); this includes an estimate for possible construction-stage work, not an agreed or committed price for that stage. The contract period runs from 26 October 2026 to 26 October 2028, with a maximum extent to 26 October 2030. TfL’s initial commitment is for Stage 1 detailed design. Stage 2 construction is optional, subject to satisfactory design, affordability, approvals and contractual conditions. No scored evaluation basis is stated.

For suppliers tracking future rail renewals work for TfL, this award shows demand for a delivery partner able to take infrastructure renewal tranches through detailed design and, if instructed, into construction and delivery. Relevant capabilities include rail engineering and construction, project design, and installation of electrical, mechanical and communications equipment, with construction-related services and monitoring and control also within scope. A credible competitor would need to coordinate these disciplines across London Overground, London Trams, the Docklands Light Railway and the Elizabeth line, and demonstrate the capacity to manage work through staged design and delivery. The allocation through TfL’s Infrastructure Improvement Framework also makes experience working within a framework call-off process relevant.

Notice Description

This notice confirms Transport for London's (TfL) intention to award the Rail & Sponsored Services (RSS) Delivery Partner contract to Amey Rail Limited as a call-off contract under TfL's Infrastructure Improvement Framework. The proposed contract will deliver a programme of up to 4 years of Capital Renewals across London Overground, London Trams, DLR and Elizabeth Line. The contract will deliver works in tranches, which will progress through two (2) stages: * Stage 1: Detailed Design (NEC3 ECC Main Option E) * Stage 2: Construction (NEC3 ECC Main Option C) In accordance with the framework allocation process as described in Schedule 7, the works being delivered by this contract were allocated to Amey Rail Limited. TfL's initial commitment under the contract is limited to Stage 1. Progression to Stage 2 is optional and subject to completion of Stage 1, confirmation of affordability, receipt of the necessary approvals and satisfaction of the contractual conditions for progression. The price for Stage 2 has not yet been agreed and will be developed during Stage 1. The contract value stated in this notice therefore includes an estimate for the potential Stage 2 works and should not be interpreted as an agreed or committed Stage 2 price.
