## Summary

The public procurement process led by WM Trains Limited, based in Birmingham, United Kingdom, involves a direct award for the C10 Overhaul Job focusing on the Brake Raft Overhaul of the Angel Class 172/0/1 fleet. This process is classified within the services industry, specifically relating to railway and tramway locomotives and associated parts, repair, maintenance, and railway transport services, and is geographically numerous across various regions of the UK. The procurement stage has moved to the award phase, with a contract period from 12 August 2026 to 11 August 2027. Key dates in the process include the publication of the contract award notice on 30 July 2026 and the anticipated contract signature by 12 August 2026. This procurement follows a legal basis stipulated under UKPGA 2023/54 and operates under a special utilities regime.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, especially for companies specialising in railway maintenance and overhaul services, as it is a direct award to Wabtec UK Limited due to intellectual property exclusivity. The involvement of a large supplier indicates robust competitive positioning is advantageous. Such contracts are ideal for businesses that can leverage specialised capabilities or intellectual property to provide maintenance solutions aligned with established engineering specifications. Companies in similar fields or aspiring to develop niche expertise in high-stakes maintenance programmes could find this procurement process a model to pursue strategic partnerships or exclusive agreements.

## Notice

The C10 Overhaul Heavy Maintenance programme is due in 2026 to be performed on the Angel Class 172/0/1 fleet currently on a dry lease with WM Trains. As such, heavy maintenance arrangements are the responsibility of WM Trains and some of the jobs within the C10 specification WMT/172/HM Issue:1 require specialist external supplier support. An agreement with Wabtec for the Brake Raft Overhaul (job BR 0007) element of the C10 overhaul of Class 172/0/1 is required as WM Trains do not have the relevant IP to perform this.

### Procurement Information

The C10 Overhaul Heavy Maintenance programme is due in 2026 to be performed on the Angel Class 172/0/1 fleet currently on a dry lease with WM Trains. As such, heavy maintenance arrangements are the responsibility of WM Trains and some of the jobs within the C10 specification WMT/172/HM Issue:1 require specialist external supplier support. An agreement with Wabtec for the Brake Raft Overhaul (job BR 0007) element of the C10 overhaul of Class 172/0/1 is required as WM Trains do not have the relevant IP to perform this. Within job BR0007, the specification requires 3EER400011-7485 to be overhauled in accordance with engineering requirements. On consultation with Engineering, Porterbrook published a Brake Raft Overhaul procedure PB C10741 in October 2025 for their Class 172/2/3 fleet which contains identical brake rafts at the point of overhaul which references Wabtec overhaul specification documents (or equivalent). WMT Engineering Team have confirmed there are no equivalent published procedure documents on the central ROSCO/TOC repository for technical specifications. Wabtec Faiveley are the OEM for 3EER400011-7485, therefore they are the sole supplier with the required IP in order to overhaul the brake raft.
