The requirement covers inspection and maintenance of track and associated infrastructure, carried out by a specialised contractor. It is a works contract for railway infrastructure rather than general building maintenance. Delivery is across ScotRail’s depot network in Scotland. ScotRail Trains Limited is the buyer and a central purchasing body. The procurement is classified under CPV 45234129, covering railway construction work. The scope is presented as a single requirement covering track and associated infrastructure at all ScotRail depots, so suppliers should be able to support a network-wide maintenance service rather than an isolated site assignment. This procurement is at the planning stage: ScotRail has announced its intention to buy the service, but has not yet issued an invitation to tender. The expected procurement route is a utilities-sector competition covered by the Government Procurement Agreement, with a single planned lot. The estimated total value is £3,500,000. ScotRail expects the next notice to be published on 6 October 2026; this is an indicative date rather than a deadline for responses. The contract concerns inspection and maintenance of depot track and associated infrastructure. Suppliers should use the planning period to understand the requirement and prepare for the later competition. The requirement will suit specialist railway infrastructure contractors with the people, equipment and systems to inspect and maintain track and related assets across multiple operational depots. Relevant businesses are likely to include established rail maintenance firms, track engineering contractors and larger infrastructure providers able to coordinate work across a depot network. Practical preparation should focus on demonstrating safe delivery in a live railway environment, competent inspection and maintenance teams, robust scheduling and regional mobilisation capacity. Experience maintaining track or comparable rail infrastructure will be directly relevant. The buyer’s stated focus is a specialised contractor for inspection and maintenance, so firms should be ready to evidence technical capability, reliable processes and experience managing associated infrastructure. ## Notice Inspection and Maintenance is carried out by a specialised contractor employed/contracted by SRT for Track and associated infrastructure at all ScotRail Depot's ### Lot Information Lot 1 Inspection and Maintenance is carried out by a specialised contractor employed/contracted by SRT for Track and associated infrastructure at all ScotRail Depot's https://scotrail.wax-live.com/S2C/DisplayModules/TradeModules/Negotiations/Opportunities/ListEvents.aspx ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP564648 | | Notice type | OJEU - F4 - Prior Information Notice (Utilities) | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | 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 | 16 Sep 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 6 Oct 2026 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £3,500,000 | | 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 | ScotRail Trains Limited | | Locality | GLASGOW | | Postcode area | Glasgow | | Postcode | G2 6HQ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM32 Glasgow City | | Local authority | Glasgow City | | Electoral ward | Anderston/City/Yorkhill | | Westminster constituency | Glasgow North | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45234129 - Urban railway track construction works ## Release History - 16 Sep 2026 at 01:00 - Planning - OJEU - F4 - Prior Information Notice (Utilities) - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP564648 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP564648 ScotRail Track Depot Maintenance - Inspection and Maintenance is carried out by a specialised contractor employed/contracted by SRT for Track and associated infrastructure at all ScotRail Depot's ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=843172 - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000843172 - https://scotrail.wax-live.com/S2C/DisplayModules/TradeModules/Negotiations/Opportunities/ListEvents.aspx - https://www.scotrail.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
