## Summary

HS1 Ltd, the organisation responsible for the UK's sole high-speed railway, has concluded the award phase of the "St Pancras Enhancement Project RIBA 2 Design and Operational Concept Feasibility Study." The project, which falls under the architectural design services category, is located at St Pancras International in London and involves significant reconfiguration to support future passenger growth. The project was pursued through a negotiated procurement procedure with a pre-qualification questionnaire and other requisite documents supplied at the tendering stage. The contract was awarded on 19th May 2025, while the entire phase began on 12th February 2025, with the contract period running until 15th December 2025.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for architectural and engineering design service providers, particularly those experienced in large-scale infrastructure projects. Companies equipped to handle railway station construction and related consultancy services could greatly benefit from engaging with such projects, as they present a chance for growth in an expanding transit sector. The successful bidder, Hawkins Brown Architecture Limited, notable for its large-scale operations, demonstrates the type of business well-suited for such complex contractual opportunities. This process underscores the potential for contributing to the railway sector's future needs, paving the way for innovative contributions to public transportation projects.

## Notice

HS1 Ltd has the 30-year concession to own, operate and maintain High Speed 1 (HS1), the UK's only high-speed railway, as well as the stations along the route: St Pancras International, Stratford International, Ebbsfleet International and Ashford International. International rail services are currently provided by Eurostar who have expressed an aspiration to grow their passenger volumes from 19m today to 30m by 2030 across their network. To support these growth aspirations, HS1 has commissioned an initial feasibility study to explore a) the likely future passenger numbers that will need to be accommodated in the international part of St Pancras station and b) the required spatial and operational changes that will be necessary to unlock the required capacity. This initial work has identified that expansion is feasible. HS1 is now ready to progress to design and operational concept feasibility stage (RIBA2) to design, deliver and operationalise a reconfigured ground floor operation of the International Zone delivering a significant uplift in passenger capacity that meets forecast requirements until at least 2035 and potentially 2040. This is a Call for Competition using the Negotiated Procurement Procedure. Therefore, for this stage the following documents are attached: Statement of Requirement Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) Annexe A - PQQ Tenderer Q&A Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) The Invitation to Tender and form of Agreement will follow in due course.
