## Summary

SE Trains Limited has completed the award stage of a procurement process for a Technical Support and Spares Supply Agreement concerning 29 Class 395 electric multiple units. The contract, classified under CPV code 50222000 for repair and maintenance services of rolling stock, covers both light and heavy maintenance activities for these units. The contract will run for three years starting in January 2025, with an optional one-year extension, mainly operating out of the Ashford Train Maintenance Centre in Kent. The procurement was carried out through a negotiated procedure without a prior call for competition as allowed under Regulation 50 (1)(a) of the Utilities Contract Regulations 2016, due to the lack of suitable tenders in an earlier call for competition.

This tender provides substantial growth opportunities for businesses in the railway maintenance sector, especially those offering comprehensive technical support and spare part supply services. Companies with capabilities in managing the upkeep of electric multiple units, particularly large firms like Hitachi Europe Limited who was awarded the contract, are well-suited to participate. The long-term nature of the contract, including potential extensions, offers a stable revenue stream and a significant business development prospect for the winning bidder.

### Procurement Information

This contract is being awarded in compliance with the Utilities Contract Regulations 2016, specifically pursuant to Regulation 50 (1) (a) which states that: "Utilities may use the negotiated procedure without prior call for competition in the following cases- (a) where no tenders, no suitable tenders, no requests to participate or no suitable requests to participate have been submitted in response to a procedure with a prior call for competition, provided that the initial conditions of the contract are not substantially altered".
