Southern Integrated Delivery (SID) – Signalling and Track
What is being bought
Network Rail has carried out a procurement exercise to award the CP7 Southern Integrated Delivery (SID) agreement to deliver our Control Period 7 (CP7) and potentially CP8 renewals portfolio. The SID will be a fully integrated team based on 'Project 13' principles comprising all categories of railway assets: Signalling, Track, Buildings & Civils (B&C), Electrification and Plant (E&P) and Minor Works. The scope includes the following items: development, design, manufacture, supply, installation, integration, testing and commissioning of the Southern renewals work bank. These works will be undertaken on Kent, Sussex and Wessex routes, and will primarily be focused on the delivery of the renewals portfolio, however options will be included to enable enhancements also to be delivered, subject to capacity and where the SID is considered the optimum procurement route. This notice covers the appointment of the Signalling (Lot 3) and Track (Lot 4) lots, where all appointed Business Partners within the SID have initially signed into a development phase agreement, scheduled from February 2023 to April 2024. The main SID agreement will be 10 years in duration (April 2024 -March 2034) and will commence in CP7 with the inclusion of a break clause prior to the commencement of CP8.
Categories
Comparable-procurement analytics
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Construction work (45000000); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 45 | 15,974 | 4 median · 25.9 average (5,197 of 15,974 with a bid count) | 3.7 average (5,713 of 15,974 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 36 | 15 median · 33 average (8 of 36 with a bid count) | 4.8 average (14 of 36 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.

"description": "The value stated in Section II.1.7 at £3,800,000,000 is the estimated overall value of the Enterprise Development Agreement (EDA) and Enterprise Agreement (EA) for these lots. This covers the EDA mobilisation period prior to CP7 commencement (February 2023 – April 2024) and CP7 – CP8 (April 2024 – March 2034), assuming that the break clause for the EA at 5 years is not enacted and the EA runs for the full 10 year period. This is further broken down in Section V.2.4 Lot 3 Signalling at £1,400,000,000 and Section V2.4 Lot 4 Track at £2,400,000,000. It should be noted that, in line with the original Contract Notice, the estimated value for Lot 3 Signalling is inclusive of the overall value of the Signalling CP7 and CP8 work bank, of which it is estimated that in the region of 60% - 70% will reside in the Eco-System with works undertaken by the OEM providers.\nWhilst Network Rail retains some understanding of the value of the renewals portfolio, the estimated overall value and specific lot values provided within this Contract Award Notice are purely indicative and is subject to change. This is due to a variety of reasons; the Statement of Funds Available (SoFA) is subject to change with the Final Determination taking place in October 2023, there is currently a lack of visibility on the CP8 funding and volume of work, and there is uncertainty on any upcoming changes surrounding Network Rail’s transition into GBR. These, coupled with general current economic volatility affecting international markets, meant that Network Rail has had to make assumptions to provide an estimate on the contract values. For the purposes of assessing the values, Network Rail has assumed that 100% of Southern Region’s renewals portfolio for CP7, known at the time of publication of the Contract Notice, would be progressed (subject to any restrictions stipulated within the Contract Notice). In addition, as the CP8 funding and volume of work is unknown, the projected costs has been made based on the CP7 estimated values. \nRecognising these constraints and uncertainties, the actual total value and split across each lot of the contract may vary and therefore be higher or lower than the values shown on this Contract Award Notice.",

This notice pertains to the second tranche of procurement and is for the appointment of a Signalling Business Partner and a Track Business Partner.",

"description": "The procurement documents are available via the link in Section I.3. These include the Instructions to Participants (which include general instructions, pre-qualification instructions and draft instructions to tender), information on scope, and the draft terms and conditions.\nApplicants are required to complete and submit one pre-qualification questionnaire by the date set out in Section IV.2.2 in order to express an interest in this opportunity (pre-qualification stage 1) and be considered for pre-qualification stage 2 - further details are included in the Instructions to Participants.\nThis opportunity relates to the appointment of a Signalling and a Track Business Partner to work alongside appointed Business Partners in Buildings & Civils (B&C), Electrification & Plant (E&P), and Minor Works (Network Rail Partner), referred to collectively as Southern Integrated Delivery (SID). The SID will be responsible for managing the renewals portfolio across the Southern Region. All SID Partners will be commercially aligned and jointly incentivised. Each SID Partner will operate under their own Principal Contractor License and will undertake both Principal Designer and Principal Contractor obligations under CDM regulations. Each SID Partner will have a primary focus but may carry out any of the works within the SID Portfolio on a \"best for portfolio\" basis.\nWhilst Network Rail retains some understanding of the value of the CP7 Renewals portfolio, due to the way Enhancement schemes are funded, the value of Enhancements is purely indicative and subject to change. For the purposes of valuing this forthcoming opportunity, Network Rail has assumed that the volume of work delivered within CP8 is aligned with CP7 current estimates. Recognising these constraints, it is estimated that the total value of the SID may be in the region of £4.7 billion - £9.6 billion of which it is anticipated that B&C constitutes 30% - 45%, Track 15% - 25%, Signalling 5% - 15%, E&P 5% -10% whilst Minor Works is estimated to constitute 20% - 30% of the overall estimated value. However, given the uncertainty over volumes and funding commitments, the overall value of this opportunity may vary from this range.\nThe value advertised for the Signalling SID partner, includes the overall value of the Signalling CP7 and CP8 work bank of which it is estimated that in the region of 60% - 70% will reside in the Eco-System with works undertaken by the OEM providers.\nApplicants will have the option to bid for both Lot 3 – Signalling and Lot 4 – Track, however Network Rail intends to restrict the number of Lots an applicant may be awarded under this Procurement Event and associated Procurement (and the number of roles) to a maximum of one.\nThis principle will also apply to the appointment of all future appointments to the SID; the number of places an economic operator is eligible to be awarded across B&C, E&P, Track and Signalling will be restricted to one. This is because all Business partners under the SID will be party to the same contract and Network Rail does not consider that optimal operation of the SID will be achieved if an economic operator holds more than one of the key Partner roles.\nNetwork Rail reserves the right to cancel or suspend this procurement process at any time without incurring any cost or liability. Network Rail shall not be liable for any costs or expenses incurred by any organisation in responding to this notice or in tendering for the proposed Contract. Network Rail does not bind itself to enter into any agreement arising from this Notice and no contractual rights express or implied arising out of this Notice or arise out of the procedure envisaged by this Notice.\nNetwork Rail reserves the right to disqualify any organisation who provides information or confirmations which later prove to be untrue or incorrect, does not supply the information required by this Notice or as otherwise directed by Network Rail during the procurement process.",
