An often overlooked area of project delivery is subcontract and supplier procurement. We believe that setting up appropriate and robust subcontracts that are in line with the main contract are essential to the successful delivery of rail projects. This is only achieved by correctly preparing tender documentation and ensuring the subcontracts that are placed are only done so with a full understanding of the overall project. In addition, thorough subcontractor assessments must be undertaken including post tender interviews and desktop financial assessments. We can support the project by providing experienced commercial advice to the procurement team to develop satisfactory subcontract terms and conditions alongside a suitable invitation to tender pack which will include appropriate pricing schedules. We can review tender returns to ensure a like-for-like comparison can be made.
