About the buyer

Network Rail runs a safe, efficient railway, and buys as a central public body split between a national Route Services team and its regional routes. Suppliers must register on BravoNR, Network Rail's procurement portal, before bidding for work. Every prospective supplier also registers on Find a Tender, the Cabinet Office's digital platform. Safety-critical work needs audited status on RISQS, the rail industry's supplier qualification scheme, before Network Rail contracts directly. A contract register lists every national contract and framework, with a contact for each. Network Rail's latest spend reporting covers Control Period 7, the 2024-25 financial year.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of Network Rail's contract awards have been in IT services, architectural and engineering services and construction work.
