Eye notices with interest that Network Rail is opening up to 'contestability'.
This from the FT:
Under the plans, Network Rail’s project planning unit will be turned into a separate business and forced to compete with outside bidders to design and manage engineering projects in the UK. It will also be encouraged to pitch for similar work outside Britain, possibly in fast-developing rail markets, such as the United Arab Emirates.
Interesting too that NR's Simon Kirby hopes that his Directorate will be able to offer NR's accumulated wisdom worldwide.
An idea that will resonate with those who recall the value of BR and LT's former international consultancy arms.
