South Western Railway Limited, in short
Who does South Western Railway Limited award contracts to?
Across 29 contracts recorded since 2021, South Western Railway Limited has used 18 different suppliers. The most frequent are Alstom Engineering and Services Limited (3 contracts), CUBIC Transportation Systems Ltd (3 contracts), Porterbrook Leasing Company Ltd (2 contracts).
What does South Western Railway Limited buy?
Its most active procurement categories are vehicles and transport equipment, software and information systems, business and professional services. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
When do South Western Railway Limited contracts come up for renewal?
7 contracts awarded by South Western Railway Limited have an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 31 Mar 2027. End dates come from the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
How much does South Western Railway Limited spend on contracts?
The median published contract value is £4.0m, across the 24 contracts that state a value. Published values are not added up here: a framework's value is a ceiling shared by every supplier on it, and the same value is often repeated across lots, so adding them up would overstate what is spent.
How can I be alerted to new South Western Railway Limited tenders?
Tender Radar monitors Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales each weekday morning and can score every new South Western Railway Limited notice against your organisation's profile, delivering the relevant ones before 9am alongside their contracts approaching renewal.

How these figures are worked out
- The last 12 months: award notices published from 8 November 2025 to 7 November 2026, each contract counted once however many suppliers or rows it has. The same window is used everywhere on this page.
- Year on year: Its published contract awards rose in the last year. Contracts by publication date in the 12 months to 7 Nov 2026 and the year before it, oldest first: 8 and 23. A change of more than 15% counts as a rise or fall; each year needs at least 5 contracts.
- 1 contract ends in the next 6 months: Published end dates between 7 November 2026 and 7 May 2027, each contract counted once.
- Has published 5 planned procurements: Pipeline notices on Find a Tender whose expected tender date is still to come, or passed in the last 30 days.
- Took on 17 new suppliers in the last 12 months: Suppliers named on a contract it awarded and published since 8 November 2025, and on none before. Counted by organisation, not by spelling.
- Most recent award: recorded 19 Oct 2026 (2 weeks ago).
- Values: value figures cover the 24 of 29 contracts where a value was published. Values are never added up: framework ceilings and values repeated across lots would make a total meaningless.
- Since 2021: totals count contracts by award date from January 2021, and suppliers by organisation rather than by spelling.
