What is being bought

Published requirement description

The objective of the SQR is to identify an independent auditor who has the ability to conduct periodic assessments to audit our stations, people and fleet assets, and to ensure a continued level of high performance via ongoing audits and monitoring.

Previously there has not been a requirement of this type in place on GA. As such we require an initial start-up and ongoing inspection regime to be introduced across all stations and

trains that we operate, including of our colleagues and online presence.

As a major hub for our services, there is also a requirement for biannual inspections to be completed at Liverpool Street station despite it being operated by Network Rail.
