Network Rail is seeking feedback from suppliers with relevant experience in the design, manufacture and supply of GRP structural systems, modular bridge solutions and related products.
This engagement is being undertaken solely to improve Network Rail’s understanding of market capability, capacity, innovation, risk and commercial considerations prior to any future procurement process.
Network Rail anticipates that any future framework may operate for up to five years. Based on current assumptions, the opportunity is expected to support the manufacture of components for approximately 10 to 15 standard footbridges, with actual volumes dependent on programme demand and the ongoing condition, maintenance and stewardship of the production moulds. The figures provided are indicative only and do not represent a commitment to any minimum volume of work.
