Tender: Station Advertising Concession – Manage, Operate and Exploit Advertising Space at Network Rail and DFTO Stations

About

Network Rail Infrastructure Limited is seeking a concessionaire to maintain, manage, operate and exploit advertising space at stations within the concession scope, covering stations operated by Network Rail and participating Department for Transport Operator (DFTO) train operating companies, with recognition that these organisations are expected to transition into Great British Railways or a successor structure. The concession will include some advertising space from contract commencement and is expected to incorporate additional advertising space during the contract term, with mechanisms in the contract to allow further station and asset advertising opportunities to be added as they arise; the Contracting Authority is procuring on behalf of Network Rail, current and future DFTO train operating companies and reserves the right to novate, transfer, amend or otherwise manage the resulting contract to reflect future rail industry reform. The estimated total concession value, based on forecast advertising revenues over the contract term, is likely to fall within the range of £1.9 billion to £2.2 billion, though actual revenues may vary due to demand, occupancy, asset onboarding and market conditions.
