    Brief

    STFC is inviting contractors to deliver pre-construction phase services for the R131 Enabling Works project under a Pre-Construction Services Agreement (PCSA). This stage one appointment will involve a comprehensive range of activities to prepare for construction, including: design validation and development, buildability reviews, detailed cost and programme planning, risk assessment and management, value engineering optimization, and open-book supply chain procurement. The successful contractor will work collaboratively with STFC to de-risk the project and establish a solid foundation for the subsequent construction phase. This is an opportunity for experienced contractors to demonstrate expertise in complex project delivery and early contractor involvement models.
