Amey has been awarded a place on Translink’s Professional Services Framework, a four-year, £40 million programme designed to enhance infrastructure across Northern Ireland.
As one of four appointed suppliers, Amey will apply its industry-leading systems thinking approach to deliver end-to-end engineering solutions across potential contracts secured under this framework. Services provided on behalf of Translink will include strategic site surveys, new infrastructure design, civil and structural engineering, line speed upgrades, and rail network electrification throughout Northern Ireland.
This new framework appointment further builds on Amey’s growing presence in Northern Ireland and its longstanding partnership with the Department of Infrastructure (DfI) dating back to 2005. The company recently announced a number of key strategic contract wins with the department including a £30m engineering services consultancy partner contract with its Rivers division as well as a £35m engineering services consultancy contract with its Transport and Road Asset Management (TRAM) branch.
The news also follows a successful period of framework appointments with Amey recently securing a spot on the Network Rail Development and Design Partnership Framework (DDPF) to deliver a range of infrastructure services including professional development, design and technical support to connect people, businesses, and communities in the north of England.
Susan Evans, Rail Sector Director for Amey, said:
“We are delighted to have been appointed to Translink’s Professional Services Framework.“
“This appointment reinforces Amey’s commitment to supporting Northern Ireland’s ambition to deliver efficient, sustainable, and connected public transportation solutions. Leveraging our market-leading capabilities and expertise, we’re looking forward to supporting Translink in delivering high-quality infrastructure improvements that benefit communities across Northern Ireland.”
