Network Rail has handed out a pair of key framework deals worth a combined £220m to cover reactive and minor works across Scotland’s rail network.

AmcoGiffen has taken the lead on the Civils Reactive and Minor Works Framework, securing a deal estimated at £150m over the next four years.

The contract will see AmcoGiffen deliver a wide range of urgent and planned infrastructure works – including drainage, embankment repairs, bridge strengthening and tunnel maintenance.

Meanwhile, Commercial Property Maintenance Services (CPMS) has been awarded the separate Buildings Reactive and Minor Works Framework, covering stations and railway buildings.

Valued at up to £70m, the deal includes everything from emergency callouts to planned preventative maintenance and refurbishment works.

Both contracts include the option for a one-year extension and will be critical to keeping Scotland’s railway infrastructure safe, serviceable, and running smoothly around the clock.

Key contract details:


Civils Framework:
– Winner: Amalgamated Construction (AmcoGiffen) – Value: £150m – Scope: Reactive civils, drainage, bridges, embankments – Duration: 4 years + 1 optional year

Buildings Framework:
– Winner: Commercial Property Maintenance Services (CPMS) – Value: £70m – Scope: Station and building maintenance, PPM, refurb – Duration: 4 years + 1 optional year

Both frameworks require 24/7, 365-day availability, with contractors expected to maintain flexible workforces and constant access to materials and plant.

The awards mark a major refresh of Scotland’s approach to minor works and asset resilience, with Network Rail aiming to speed up delivery while maintaining safety and quality across its network.
