## Summary

The procurement process, titled "Bridge Works," is being conducted by SCS JV in the United Kingdom. This project falls under the construction industry, specifically focused on railway bridge construction. The project is currently in the award stage following a tender that culminated on 16 August 2021. The contract period is set to commence on 6 December 2021 and will conclude on 31 December 2023, with a minimum budget of £1,000,000 and a total estimated value of £2,500,000. This tender is part of the High-Speed 2 (HS2) initiative, aimed at developing a high-speed rail network between London and the North, covering key delivery areas such as Euston, Old Oak Common, and West Ruislip.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in construction, engineering, and infrastructure development. Companies with experience in railway bridge construction, project management, and civil engineering would be well-positioned to compete. The successful contractors for this contract must demonstrate strong alignment with the values of safety, integrity, and leadership, as well as the capability to work in complex environments involving Network Rail and the London Underground. Suppliers that can showcase relevant expertise and resources will have the chance to benefit from long-term contracts and contribute to a transformative infrastructure project that aligns with both local and national economic growth objectives.

Skanska Construction UK Ltd, Costain Ltd, STRABAG AG (SCS) have been awarded the two Main Works Civils Contracts (MWCC) - S1 and S2 tunnels. S1 includes two 9 km twin bored tunnels between the new HS2 stations, Euston and Old Oak Common.

SCS's scope will include the full design of all Main Civil Works for the Lots S1 and S2 of HS2. The Project is split down into three areas, Area East (Euston), Area Central (Old Oak Common) and Area West (West Ruislip). This opportunity currently relates to works that will occur in Area West, which extends from West Ruislip to Old Oak Common, although there may be the possibility to extend the scope to cover Area Central and Area East at a later date once requirements have ascertained. Buildings, bridges and other assets along the route of the tunnels need to be prepared for the tunnel boring machines (TBMs) to be driven through underground and remediated/repaired afterwards in the event of damage as a result of movement and the like. The specific scope for this opportunity is: The provision of all management, supervision, labour, plant, materials, equipment and consumables (including fuels) necessary to carry out and complete the design, supply, delivery, installation, maintenance, testing and commissioning of the Bridge work consisting of: General Items: * Assessment and design of solutions for permanent works as may be required including associated drawings, calculations and P.I. insurance. * Design and provision of any necessary temporary works required including the associated drawings, calculations and P.I. insurance. * All necessary access provisions and equipment. * Coordination and integration with other trades and subcontractors to properly complete the works. * Necessary expertise, experience, assurances and approvals relating to working in Network Rail, London Underground and Highways environments. * Capability for the fabrication/manufacture of works off-site. * Assistance and support in the preparation for, and acquisition of, any required licenses, consents, approvals and permissions. * BIM capability is preferable although not critical. Bridge Works includes: * Supply of the Hydraulic Jacking Frames and associated materials required to construct the approved design solution. * Installation of the Hydraulic Jacking Frame solution. * Commission, maintenance and removal of the hydraulic jacking frames. * Bearing(s) replacement. * Supply of the materials to construct the approved structural strengthening design solution. * Installation of the structural strengthening design solution. * Provision of input to provide assessment and production of the detailed design inclusive of relevant CAT2/CAT3 checks. * Production of detailed fabrication and shop drawings. When selecting a supplier SCS look for alignment of values, behaviours and cultures, between ourselves and our supply chain. SCS and HS2 have aligned their values to the following: * Safety * Integrity * Leadership * Respect Please refer to HS2 supplier guide. ( https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/hs2-supplier-guide) In order to achieve a successful project outcome we have published a manifesto of our guiding principles, which include: * Making HS2 affordable * Delivering on promises * We build with people in mind * Delivering more than a railway * Achieving more together * Creative and challenging Successfully shortlisted supplier's will be those with verifiable experience, the appropriate capability and resources to deliver the scope of works. During this stage supplier's may then be invited to the project to formally demonstrate their experience and capabilities. As an alternative phone/webinar interviews may be conducted. Shortlisted suppliers will be sent a Prequalification Questionnaire (PQQ) request. Suppliers successfully selected through the prequalification will be invited to provide a formal competitive tender for the services. The Invitation to Tender (ITT) and final selection will be based upon a balanced scorecard, requiring suppliers to demonstrate their ability to work with the projects values and behaviours in mind, whilst proving their capabilities and competence, through qualitive and quantative evidence.
