two.1.4) Short description
Network Rail has put in place a number of frameworks for Control Period 7 (CP7) for the delivery of capital works in the North West & Central Region. These frameworks are divided into categories and separate Contract Award Notices relate to each of them. This Contract Award Notice relates to Framework Category B.
CP7 covers the 5 year period from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2029.
The North West & Central Region (Region and referred to as R in the lots and sub-lots) is formed of 3 routes, North West (NW), Central (C) and West Coast South (WCS). Some lots within this Contract Award Notice relate to the Region and others relate to one or more routes.
Additional information on the Region (including the geographical areas covered by these 3 routes) can be found at: https://www.networkrail.co.uk/running-the-railway/ourregions/
north-west-and-central/
Framework Category B
This category relates to the design and build of “medium projects” (projects with a value of between £100k and £7m), with discipline specific lots for Civil Engineering, Buildings and Electrification & Plant, across different geographical areas within the Region as described in section II.2 in more detail.
The scope of works proposed to be delivered under Framework Category B is:
• Survey, investigation, and reporting
• Option selection (involving outline methodology)
• Outline and detailed design (including temporary works)
• Implementation (including demolition)
• Commissioning
• Hand back into maintenance
• Statutory consents and permissions
• If directed by Network Rail, third party access agreements
These works to Network Rail’s assets may incorporate partial or whole renewal (which may include replacement, removal, major repair, major refurbishment or strengthening).
Network Rail has appointed suppliers to this Framework Category B across three discipline lots and geographical sub-lots as follows:
Civil Engineering (Structures & Geotechnical)
Lot B1 (R) Civil Engineering (Structures & Geotechnical) across the full Region: 1 Supplier

Section six. Complementary information
six.3) Additional information
The estimated value at II.1.7 relates to the full duration of the agreement, including the mobilisation period (2-3 months), initial term (60 months) and renewal options (24 months).
The estimated total value at section II.1.7 is based on Network Rail’s current forecast of future spend under the frameworks. It should be noted, however, that these values are Network Rail’s best estimate based on currently available information, and in particular that any third party spend is not certain at this stage. The final value of the frameworks may therefore be higher or lower.
