More details on Nexus' requirements are set out in the Specification. The contract term is 84 months with an option to extend for a further 36 months, so as to ensure that Nexus' requirements are fully met within the MetroGo project that is in itself subject to the endorsement and approval of the Outline Business Case (OBC) by Government in due course, and this legal retainer is expected to encompass the advice required to (i) prepare the content of the OBC; (ii) implement the agreed strategies set out in the OBC; (iii) deliver the OBC & Final Business Case strategies and, in turn, commission a new signalling system via the MetroGo project. The exact scope of work during the commission will be subject to the timely progress of the project and is set out in the Specification.
