    "description": "Northern is intending to initiate a future procurement process for the supply of tooling and associated calibration services to support maintenance and operational activities across its fleets and depots.\nThe scope of the procurement will include, but not be limited to, the provision of general and specialist tools used in rail vehicle maintenance and depot operations. This includes hand tools, power tools, torque tools, measurement instruments, and other equipment essential for safe and efficient working practices.\nIn addition, the procurement will cover the calibration of tools and equipment to ensure ongoing compliance with safety and quality standards. Due to the distinct nature of this requirement, it is anticipated that calibration services may be procured as a separate lot within the overall tender.\nSuppliers will be expected to demonstrate the capability to provide high-quality, durable tooling, maintain continuity of supply, and deliver reliable calibration services with traceable certification and responsive turnaround times.\nThis notice does not constitute a call for competition but is intended to inform the market of a potential future opportunity. Interested suppliers are encouraged to monitor forthcoming publications for further details.",
