Technical Authority cover safety, health and wellbeing, environment and sustainability, security, engineering, technology, capability, compliance, and incident investigations.

The Requirement: Network Rail’s Technical Authority has a requirement for a zero value framework agreement for the supply of a Managed Services provision.
