Who Can Apply
Suits programme and project management, engineering and transport consultancies with experience of rail or regulated infrastructure. The framework is not yet in place: market engagement has closed, and firms will win a place by bidding when LSPH runs the formal competition.
Buyer Benefits

It will value consultants who understand its obligations as asset owner, can work alongside operators and maintainers, and can show how their staff deliver defined value outcomes on each project.
Next Steps
