Track Systems Framework Agreement

HS2 Ltd has established a multi-supplier framework agreement (FA) alongside the delivery contracts for lots 1, 2 and 3. The scope of work covered by the FA will be: — the works covered by lots 1, 2 and 3 (or the residual elements of those works) in the event of the termination or other failure of those contracts due to contractor default — other parts of the scope of lots 1, 2 and 3 works in the event they are omitted from those contracts for any reasons; — other optional works scope relating to the HS2 Track Systems or wider HS2 Project. HS2 Ltd appointed the following suppliers to the FA: • the successful tenderers for lots 1, 2 and 3 and, in the event they are different entities, • the second highest scoring tenderer for lots 1, • the second highest scoring tenderer for lot 2, and • the second highest scoring tenderer for lot 3. Any call-off contracts under the FA will be awarded following a mini-competition procedure, the rules for which are set out in the full FA. Only those parties appointed to the FA will be eligible to participate in such mini-competitions. There is no guaranteed minimum or maximum value of work to be awarded under the FA and HS2 Ltd reserves the right not to launch any mini-competition or award any call-off contracts under the FA, including for the avoidance of doubt, any call-off contract for all or part of the Delivery contract. HS2 Ltd reserves the right to provide in the FA for its use by any delivery body or other of its contractors or successor body appointed in relation to the HS2 Project to call off the Delivery contract. HS2 Ltd therefore reserves the right for the Delivery contract to be entered into by that delivery body or other contractor or successor body. The Delivery contract: HS2 Ltd reserves the right to award one or more call-off contracts for the Delivery works. The scope of works included within the Delivery includes the following: design and construction of —standard pre-cast slab track (a separate supply arrangement); —standard cast in-situ slab track or optional pre-cast slab track; —mainline switches and crossings (S&C) units and rail expansion devices (REDs) on a combination of the aforementioned track forms (a separate supply arrangement). The above includes the construction of any hydraulically bonded layer (HBL) or intermediate concrete layers, sleeper blocks or pre-cast elements and the installation of long welded rails (to be supplied free-issue to the Contractor); —buffer stops — either permanent or temporary units to support a phased entry into service; —track spacing infill to provide drainage continuity to systems installed by others; —cable containment (troughing), to support the routing of HV and LV cables; — provision of (and subsequent removal of) a railhead at stone to be used for construction purposes, which is then subsequently converted into an Infrastructure maintenance base; — rail served (IMB-R) for the ongoing maintenance of the clients rail-mounted plant fleet. The extent of the Delivery contract scope lot 4 works includes the design and installation of all track infrastructure within the geographical area, incl. through open route.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Construction work for pipelines, communication and power lines, for highways, roads, airfields and railways; flatwork (45230000); 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 4511,4094 median · 26.4 average (3,140 of 11,409 with a bid count)3.8 average (3,457 of 11,409 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.

HS2 Ltd appointed the following suppliers to the FA: • the successful tenderers for lots 1, 2 and 3 and, in the event they are different entities, • the second highest scoring tenderer for lots 1, • the second highest scoring tenderer for lot 2, and • the second highest scoring tenderer for lot 3. Any call-off contracts under the FA will be awarded following a mini-competition procedure, the rules for which are set out in the full FA. Only those parties appointed to the FA will be eligible to participate in such mini-competitions. There is no guaranteed minimum or maximum value of work to be awarded under the FA and HS2 Ltd reserves the right not to launch any mini-competition or award any call-off contracts under the FA, including for the avoidance of doubt, any call-off contract for all or part of the Delivery contract. HS2 Ltd reserves the right to provide in the FA for its use by any delivery body or other of its contractors or successor body appointed in relation to the HS2 Project to call off the Delivery contract. HS2 Ltd therefore reserves the right for the Delivery contract to be entered into by that delivery body or other contractor or successor body. The Delivery contract: HS2 Ltd reserves the right to award one or more call-off contracts for the Delivery works. The scope of works included within the Delivery includes the following: design and construction of —standard pre-cast slab track (a separate supply arrangement); —standard cast in-situ slab track or optional pre-cast slab track; —mainline switches and crossings (S&C) units and rail expansion devices (REDs) on a combination of the aforementioned track forms (a separate supply arrangement).
