Network Rail is seeking suppliers for an up to £113 million eight-year civils examination framework in Wales and the West of England.

Civils examinations within Network Rail refer to the inspection, examination and reporting of structural assets to ensure the safety, reliability, and longevity of railway infrastructure.
These examinations help identify defects, monitor structural integrity, and determine necessary maintenance or repair works to prevent failures and ensure continued safe operation of the rail network.
The framework’s scope will cover critical infrastructure, including:
- Bridges
- Culverts
- Retaining walls
- Coastal and estuary defences
- Underwater structures
- Tunnels
The framework runs for eight years, starting April 2026.
