Network Rail Technology - Supplier Qualification System (SQS), via the Network Rail procurement platform – BravoNR, under one of the following categories:

• Supplier Qualification System – Software as a Service;

The SQS has been established to provide a single platform for suppliers to register against multiple technology specific categories. Qualification will negate the need for a supplier to complete Network Rail’s mandatory and discretionary questions every time they are invited to participate in a competitive process. Registered and qualified suppliers on the SQS can be considered by Network Rail for contract opportunities without further notification of requirements published via Find a Tender Service.

If you wish to be invited to any potential tender opportunity in relation to this requirement then please refer to the link and instructions below which contains documents that provides detail on:
