In plain English

C2C Railway is seeking a design and build contractor to completely replace two platforms at Basildon station (built in 1974) plus install new passenger lifts and associated systems. The platforms are damaged beyond repair and currently held up with temporary props while awaiting renewal.

What the buyer wants

• Produce detailed multi-disciplinary design for demolition and reconstruction of platforms 1 and 2, including bridge deck work spanning over the public highway • Supply and install two new passenger lifts to serve the renewed platforms • Renew associated station systems and infrastructure (exact scope to be clarified in procurement) • Work under a JCT Design and Build contract structure, meaning you design it and then build it

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This is a £20 million contract requiring detailed design and build delivery on an operational railway: almost all small businesses lack the financial capacity, insurance cover, engineering expertise, and rail industry accreditation needed to bid competitively.
