As part of the CP7 transition plan, Network Rail Wales & Western seeks to appoint a Design Development Partner for the region through a 5-8 year framework agreement. Development work will include multi-discipline railway enhancement projects covering Signalling, Power, Telecommunications, Building & Civils, Track, De-carbonisation etc.. The Partner will be expected to provide a full range of disciplines, including engineering, project management, programme planning, risk management, environmental and sustainability management, planning and consents management, alignment with Green Book guidance, architectural services, cost planning, highways services, minor works, construction management and principal designer accountability. This will initially cover the PACE 1 phase, with an option to continue to later PACE phases thereafter.

The Design Development Partner will be expected to demonstrate how they will support Network Rail through innovation in terms of delivery solutions and by the depth of experience they will be able to call on within their organisational networks. Procurement will be via an open market tender involving both PQQ and ITT stages. The contract duration will initially be 5 years with 3 annual extensions if required. The maximum estimated contract value over 8 years is anticipated to be PS25 million. The contract will be a framework arrangement with separate task instructions for each workflow.

Further responding to this PIN will not in any way advantage or disadvantage any supplier in a future procurement exercise. Following the market engagement exercise, Network Rail will not be bound to conduct a procurement exercise. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/011127-2022 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 29 Apr 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 7 Jul 2022 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £25,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NETWORK RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE LTD | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North West London | | Postcode | NW1 2DN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Regent's Park | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 71500000 - Construction-related services ## Release History - 29 Apr 2022 at 12:03 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/011127-2022 ## Notice URLs - https://networkrail.bravosolution.co.uk/esop/guest/go/opportunity/detail?opportunityId=53831 - https://networkrail.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
