Tender description

Network Rail is undertaking Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) in relation to the future provision of a managed service for the Rail Plant Performance System (Rail PPS), a bespoke web-based application used to capture, analyse and monitor rail plant performance. The requirement is expected to include ongoing support and maintenance, hosting and backup, data import/export, technical and user support, service management and potential future system enhancements. Through this PME, Network Rail is seeking feedback from the market to understand supplier capability and appetite, proposed transition and mobilisation approaches, and any potential barriers to competition. Suppliers are invited to review the attached PME documentation and provide feedback in accordance with the response instructions. This PME is for information-gathering purposes only and does not constitute a call for competition or commit Network Rail to undertaking a subsequent procurement.

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. Network Rail's latest spend reporting covers Control Period 7, the 2024-25 financial year.

Safety-critical work needs audited status on RISQS, the rail industry's supplier qualification scheme, before Network Rail contracts directly.

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