## Summary

The procurement process led by HS2 for the Platform Edge Doors (PEDs) at Phase One and Phase Two Stations has recently been abandoned. The buying organisation, High Speed Two (HS2) Ltd, based in Birmingham, initially intended to establish a single-supplier Framework Agreement for railway construction works. The procurement method employed was a selective procedure, specifically a negotiated procedure with prior competition call, under the procurement category 'works'. Although initially active with a planned tender period ending in September 2023, this procurement was halted due to the UK government's decision to terminate Phase 2 of the HS2 project. Consequently, the procurement status is marked as complete with no contract awarded, impacting locations from London to West Midlands, and potentially Manchester Airport under optional provisions.

This tender could have represented significant opportunities for businesses within the railway construction and safety equipment sectors to engage with a premier infrastructure project like HS2. Such projects often demand expertise in railway systems engineering, construction, installation, and maintenance services, making it fitting for engineering firms and safety equipment suppliers with proven track records to compete. Although this particular procurement process for PEDs has been discontinued, understanding the evolving needs of large projects such as HS2 can aid businesses in anticipating future requirements and ways to align their offerings to potential opportunities, fostering business growth through strategic contracts.

## Notice

As detailed in Contract Notice 2023/S 000-021284, HS2 Ltd was previously intending to to establish a single-supplier Framework Agreement for Platform Edge Doors (PEDs) required at Old Oak Common and Interchange stations within the HS2 Phase One route (London to West Midlands) along with Optional Scope at Manchester Airport station within Phase 2b of the HS2 route. However, since the UK government announcement in 2023 to terminate Phase 2 of the HS2 project, HS2 is developing a revised operating model under the HS2 Reset Programme to improve the strategic and economic case of Phase 1 of the HS2 project involving a mixed fleet of different length rolling stock. Consequently, the adoption of PEDs as a means of platform edge protection is not considered to be viable at this time and the procurement for these works has therefore been abandoned.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Due to the HS2 Reset Programme to improve the strategic and economic case of the HS2 project involving a mixed fleet of different length rolling stock.

Options: 1) Applicants should be aware that HS2 Ltd reserves the right to omit and/or vary the scope of the Framework Agreement. As further described in the PQP, Applicants should note in particular that: 2) Option to extend duration of the Framework Agreement. The Framework Agreement is being procured on the basis that it will be awarded with an initial term of 8 years although, to ensure flexibility and resilience: (i) HS2 Ltd reserves the right to extend the term of the Framework Agreement for up to a further 2 years to make a maximum possible term of 10 years. The justification for reserving the right to extend is that if there are delays to the HS2 programme, the extension may be required if the anticipated timing of the Call-Off Contracts to deliver the PEDs Scope cannot be achieved within the initial 8 year term; and (ii) The Framework Agreement will provide that Call-Off Contracts awarded before expiry of the Framework Agreement can extend beyond the 8 (or extended 10) year term of the Framework Agreement. 3) See also II.1.4) Short description: for additional information on HS2 Ltd's options in relation to Optional Scope. Further information in relation to the Outline Scope, the Framework Agreement and HS2 Ltd's options is included in the PQP.
