## Summary

The procurement process for the Design, Supply and Installation of a Depot Protection System is currently in the planning stage, led by the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (UTILITIES), located in Glasgow. This works category project aims to replace the existing depot protection system at the Broomloan Depot, which is essential for maintaining Glasgow Subway rolling stock. The anticipated date for future notices related to this tender is 30 June 2020, with the primary delivery location designated as Govan, Glasgow. Interested parties should register their interest through the Public Contracts Scotland website to receive further updates.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in engineering, construction, and safety systems, particularly those with experience in transportation infrastructure projects. Companies that provide innovative solutions for depot protection technologies may find themselves well-positioned to compete, especially given the inclusion of cutting-edge features required to integrate with Glasgow Subway's upcoming driver-less and fully automated operations. Engaging in this opportunity can facilitate business growth and build long-term relationships within the public transport sector.

Principal contractor for the design, supply and installation of a new depot protection system.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Principal contractor for the design, supply and installation of a new depot protection system. Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT) maintains Glasgow Subway rolling stock at its Broomloan Depot. SPT has identified a need to implement a new depot protection system to replace the current system and extend the limits of protection. Rolling stock maintenance activities take place in a five road maintenance workshop. Three of the maintenance roads are equipped with inspection pits and have a depot protection system currently installed and operational. Recent works have installed lifting jacks and a wheel lathe on the two other roads. These roads are not currently protected by a depot protection system but will be in scope for the new system. A new rolling stock and control system is currently being introduced. Once complete, Glasgow Subway will be fully driver-less and operate automatically. The new depot protection system will be required to interface with the legacy signalling initially before migrating across to the new control system.
