This tender, titled "Railway Systems - Cross-passage doors," falls within the goods category and has an estimated value of £60,842,734. The tender period is set to close on 2nd October 2018, and manufacturing is expected to commence for Phase 1 delivery between 2023 and 2025, with an overarching contract period extending until 31st December 2029. The procurement method employed is a competitive procedure with negotiation, suitable for selected suppliers, with delivery sites spanning several regions, including North West, West Midlands, London, and South East England. This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of reinforced door systems, particularly those meeting the stringent safety and reliability standards required for HS2's unique operational environment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in construction materials, fire safety solutions, and advanced engineering are particularly well-suited to compete for this tender. Additionally, firms capable of demonstrating compliance and punctuality in meeting phase-specific milestones will be favoured in this selection process, ultimately bolstering their potential for growth in this significant infrastructure project. ## Notice This procurement contract includes without limitation the design, development, testing, manufacture, supply, delivery, installation, testing and commissioning of approximately between 350 and 400 cross-passage, fire-rated doorsets, at cross-passages and access/egress points in HS2's railway tunnels within Phase 1 and Phase 2a. Of the provisional total, approximately 350 doorsets are required at cross passages and access points in longer, bored tunnels, with typically two doorsets per cross passage. Approximately 25 doorsets are required in the shorter 'cut-and-cover' tunnels where there is a narrow dividing wall. The supplier will be required - by certain milestone dates in the contract - to produce evidence of a fully compliant, tested and assured system of products prior to commencing manufacture, delivery and installation of the products. HS2 Ltd will reserve certain rights (including the right to terminate or omit work from the contract) in the event that the supplier fails to meet the required conditions by the relevant milestones. Full details will be set out in the tender documentation issued to shortlisted tenderers at ITT stage. It is intended the cross-passage doors contract will be novated to HS2 Ltd's Tunnel and Lineside M&E (including ventilation) contractor once that contractor has been appointed by HS2 Ltd. The Tunnel and Lineside M&E contractor will become the purchaser under this contract and the supplier is likely to be required to provide a collateral warranty in favour of HS2 Ltd and potentially other stakeholders. The manufacturing is intended to commence in time for Phase 1 delivery and installation to take place between 2023 and 2025 prior to HS2 service testing and entering revenue service in 2026. Phase 2a delivery and installation is likely to take place between 2024 and 2026 prior to HS2 service testing and entering revenue service in 2026. These dates are indicative and subject to change. The contract will include the requirement to demonstrate and achieve reliability, take due consideration of the challenging pressure and operating environment of HS2 (to be experienced in tunnels) and provide an optimum solution for the given constraints through design and testing such that the cross-passage door system is developed to withstand the predicted HS2 pressure and operating environment for the duration of HS2's desired service life. Further details are provided in the PQP documentation. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/692df8d8-a934-444b-a3e6-d1365fd4030e | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Competitive procedure with negotiation (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Sep 2018 | | Submission deadline | 29 Oct 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Jul 2019 - 31 Dec 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £60,842,734 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HS2 | | Locality | BIRMINGHAM | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B4 6GA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG31 Birmingham | | Local authority | Birmingham | | Electoral ward | Ladywood | | Westminster constituency | Birmingham Ladywood | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) ### Codes - 44421500 - Armoured or reinforced doors ## Release History - 28 Sep 2018 at 10:54 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/692df8d8-a934-444b-a3e6-d1365fd4030e - 31 Aug 2018 at 14:12 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/692df8d8-a934-444b-a3e6-d1365fd4030e ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/692df8d8-a934-444b-a3e6-d1365fd4030e 28th September 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/high-speed-two-limited ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
