Summary of the contracting process

ScotRail Trains Limited is seeking the supply and delivery of de-icing salt under a selective tender process, classified under the CPV code 34927100 (salt) and industry category "Railway services." This procurement, originating in Glasgow, UK, falls under the "goods" category and follows a negotiated procedure with a prior call for competition. The current stage is the award phase, with the contract awarded to Mobile Gritting Services Ltd. Key dates include the tender end date of 19th August 2024 and the contract period starting on 29th August 2024 and ending on 31st March 2032, with a potential 12-month extension up to 31st March 2033. The contract was signed on 5th November 2024 and includes delivery to various ScotRail locations with site-specific requirements.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, mainly for suppliers with expertise in logistics and railway services. The requirement for site-specific delivery and hand-balling of goods to ScotRail's stations and depots means that businesses with experience in similar precise logistical operations will find this contract valuable. SMEs, particularly those specialising in de-icing products or niche logistics services, would be well-suited to compete for future renewals or similar tenders. Successful completion of such a tender could lead to long-term collaboration with ScotRail and other potential public transport operators across the UK.
