Vextrix is proud to announce our selection as a trusted supplier for Network Rail’s Easter Region Asset Protection Project Management, Sponsorship & Commercial Services Framework. This major win underscores our expertise in rail infrastructure and strengthens our position as a key player in supporting the UK’s rail network.

Driving Safety and Efficiency with Network Rail

Network Rail’s Asset Protection (ASPRO) team plays a vital role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of the UK’s operational railway. By managing third-party and outside-party activities—including local authorities, developers, utility companies, and other stakeholders—ASPRO safeguards railway operations while supporting infrastructure enhancements and rail development.

Under this framework, Vextrix will deliver specialised project management, sponsorship, and commercial services to support ASPRO’s critical functions.

Scope of Services: Supporting Critical Rail Projects

As part of this framework, we will provide skilled professionals for the following key roles:

Project Management: Coordinating Asset Protection activities, implementing contracts, facilitating cost recovery, and guiding stakeholders through the delivery process.

Sponsorship: Acting as a Single Point of Contact (SPOC) for third-party projects, managing client relationships, resolving project challenges, and securing agreements for external works on the railway.

Commercial Management: Preparing commercial agreements, managing invoicing, overseeing financial reporting, and ensuring transparency in cost processes.

Why This Framework Win Matters

Winning the Lot 1 framework represents a significant achievement for Vextrix. By collaborating directly with Network Rail, we are directly contributing to the safety, reliability, and modernisation of the UK’s railway infrastructure. Vextrix works extensively on third-party rail development projects and is passionate about the benefits that third-party investment can bring to all passengers and communities served by the UK rail network.

Our ability to provide tailored, high-quality services for critical roles like Asset Protection Portfolio Managers, Commercial Managers, and Senior Sponsors positions us as a valuable partner for Network Rail and their third-party stakeholders.
