Tender description
Network Rail is the only organisation authorised to grant access for the undertaking of inspections on its operational rail infrastructure. As access to the rail network can only be provided by Network Rail, there is no viable competitive tender or procurement route available. Accordingly, a direct award is required, as Network Rail is the sole provider capable of delivering the necessary access arrangements to enable the inspections to be undertaken. ## Contract award

About the buyer
Stockton Borough Council is a local authority that advertises its tenders through the North East Procurement Organisation, or NEPO. Suppliers register free on NEPO's Open system, where the council advertises contracts and invites tenders. A contract register lists every contract the council has awarded or joined, including framework agreements. The register updates continuously as new contracts are agreed, rather than being published as a static list. Contracts above certain value thresholds require suppliers to register on the Central Digital Platform, introduced under new procurement legislation from February 2025.
UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).
Over the past 5 years, most of Stockton Borough Council's contract awards have been in construction work, health and social work and software and information systems.
