Companies in these fields can leverage their competencies to contribute to infrastructure advancements within the transportation sector, facilitating enhanced operational resilience and capacity at a significant international transport hub. ## Notice "The planned introduction of longer train services to the Airport in response to future demand growth will mean that double stacking arrangements of trains as currently used will no longer be viable. Through the project's Delivery Steering Group, Northern and TransPennine Express have carried out analysis which has identified that additional platform capacity is needed at the airport in order to realise the full benefit of longer train services serving the airport. The scheme is part of a package of proposed measures in the Manchester area that are being designed/planned to boost capacity and resilience, emanating from the Cross Manchester Capacity and Reliability Improvement Study. Improving the operation of train services in the centre of Manchester and providing further capacity at Manchester Airport station, aligns with the strategic aims of Network Rail, TfGM, TfN and the wider industry. This project in in Tranche 1 of the Manchester and North West Transformation Programme (MNTP): A remodelling of the station at Manchester Airport, specifically a platform addition or extension of multiple platforms, or provision of a new turnback facility, will be essential to accommodate the planned implementation of longer rolling stock services. The redevelopment of these platforms will enable permissive working of two 6x24m (144m) trains, in two of the four platforms at the Airport Station. This will allow for the unaltered retention of all existing TOC services both originating and terminating at the Airport Station under 'double-stacking' conditions. The scope areas for this package are as follows: * Electrical install ready for Electricty North West power connection for cabin installation * Lighting cable diversion works and any survey works in associated with this * Installing lights on the cabins/storage areas * Lights on the hoarding at woodhouse lane * Install Power supplies to cabins from the MDU * Some minor lighting design to support the above" ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3c39a9d6-36c5-40ff-a9cb-38676ea3d483 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Feb 2026 | | Submission deadline | 13 Mar 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 24 May 2026 - 26 Jun 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | 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 | KIER TRANSPORTATION - CP7 NWC | | Locality | CLIPPERS QUAY | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M50 3XP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Salford | | Electoral ward | Quays | | Westminster constituency | Salford | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45310000 - Electrical installation work - 45317000 - Other electrical installation work ## Release History - 23 Feb 2026 at 11:50 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3c39a9d6-36c5-40ff-a9cb-38676ea3d483 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3c39a9d6-36c5-40ff-a9cb-38676ea3d483 23rd February 2026 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.competefor.com/business/viewOpportunityDetailsSupplier.html?id=107700626 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
