Framework Agreement for Construction and Infrastructure Works for Great Western Railway

Great Western Railway (GWR) is establishing a 3-year framework agreement (with optional 1-year extension) for construction and infrastructure works across its property and depot estates. The framework covers three lots: Lot 1 - Minor Works (general building, refurbishment, and maintenance), Lot 2 - Stations Major Works (station upgrades and construction), and Lot 3 - Depot Works (building and infrastructure improvements at depot sites). Works will be called off using adapted JCT contract forms and awarded through mini-competitions. All work must meet safety, quality, and environmental standards while minimizing disruption to operational sites and supporting sustainability objectives. The framework is structured as an open framework allowing supplier refresh during its lifetime. Note: This procurement may transition to a public sector successor operator, which would assume all contractual rights and obligations. Bidders are encouraged to apply across one or more lots.
