## Description
High Speed Two (HS2) is Britain’s new high-speed rail line. Once complete, it will almost halve the journey time between London Euston and Birmingham to just 49 minutes, with trains running north via the existing rail network to destinations such as Manchester, Liverpool and Glasgow.  
As the programme resets and transitions from major civil engineering works towards railway systems installation, integration, testing and commissioning, HS2 Ltd is reviewing how partner capability may support the successful delivery of the remaining phases of the programme. 
To support this, HS2 Ltd currently anticipates procuring partnering arrangements for the provision of professional services. The scope is expected to cover, but may not be limited to, the following capability areas:
• Project and Programme Management
• Technical and Engineering 
• Commercial Delivery
The capability areas identified above are indicative only and may be refined, amended or expanded following engagement with the market and the continued development of HS2 Ltd's requirements.
For the purposes of completing this notice, please note:
• HS2 Ltd has indicated that a Framework Agreement will not be established. However, no decision has yet been made regarding HS2 Ltd's proposed contractual vehicle or procurement route. The final contractual vehicle and procurement route will be informed by the outcomes of market engagement activities, together with the continued development and refinement of HS2 Ltd's requirements. HS2 Ltd reserves the right to determine the most appropriate approach following completion of these activities. Accordingly, suppliers should not interpret any information contained elsewhere in this notice as confirmation that a Framework Agreement will not be established as part of HS2 Ltd's procurement strategy.
• The CPV codes included within this notice have been selected to reflect HS2 Ltd's current understanding of the services and capabilities that are envisaged to fall within the scope of the proposed partnering arrangements. These codes are indicative only and may be refined, amended, removed and/or expanded following market engagement activities and the continued development and refinement of HS2 Ltd's requirements. Accordingly, suppliers should not interpret the CPV codes included in this notice as a definitive statement of the final scope of any future procurement opportunity.
