What is being bought

HS2 is currently undergoing a programme review to reset the HS2 project (the “Reset”). A decision has been made to abandon the Supply of Fleet of On-Track Machines procurement due to the revised timings of the programme. Previously HS2 Ltd intended to appoint contracts for the Supply of Fleet of On-Track Machines (OTM's) for HS2. HS2 Ltd was seeking expressions of interest from suitably experienced organisations, with the capability of delivering a high profile and important supplies contract. Before abandonment the successful Tenderer(s)("Supplier(s)) were going to supply a fleet of On-Track Machines (OTMs) to maintain the HS2 infrastructure. The OTMs were going to be awarded under three (3) supply contracts as follows: Lot 1- Delivery of General Infrastructure Maintenance Machines Lot 2- Delivery of Infrastructure Monitoring Machines Lot 3- Delivery of Track Access Machines. The supply contracts were to be in place from contract award until the completion of the deliverables. The scope was described in the Pre-Qualification Pack ("PQP") and accompanying procurement documents. Applicants are referred to the PQP and accompanying procurement documents and VI.3) Additional Information in this Contract Notice below

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Rolling stock (34620000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 341,5642 median · 14.6 average (396 of 1,564 with a bid count)3.2 average (440 of 1,564 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
