AtkinsRéalis on six TfL PSF3 lots: delivery implications for infrastructure engineers
Reviewed by Joe Ashwell
First reported on New Civil Engineer
30 Second Briefing
AtkinsRéalis has secured places on six of the seven lots in Transport for London’s new Professional Services Framework (PSF3), positioning it for multidisciplinary design, engineering and project management commissions across the capital’s rail, road and station assets. The framework will cover complex works on deep tube tunnels, surface rail corridors, bridges and highway structures, as well as systems engineering for signalling, power and control upgrades. For geotechnical and civil teams, this signals a strong pipeline of TfL renewals and capacity projects where early-stage ground modelling, asset condition assessment and constructability input will be critical.
Technical Brief
- Framework PSF3 is structured into seven discipline-based lots; AtkinsRéalis secured places on six.
Our Take
AtkinsRéalis securing six PSF3 lots for Transport for London comes on top of recent framework wins with Hampshire County Council and Yorkshire Water, signalling a deliberate push to anchor its UK workload in multi-year public-sector consultancy pipelines.
In our infrastructure coverage, AtkinsRéalis increasingly appears in technically complex environments such as the RAICo1 robotics and AI facility and Great British Energy – Nuclear’s Scottish siting study, which suggests TfL will be able to tap into cross-sector digital and systems engineering expertise through this framework.
Winning most of the Professional Services Framework lots in the United Kingdom also consolidates AtkinsRéalis’s position as a go‑to adviser on UK transport and utilities, which can give it pricing and resource-allocation advantages over smaller consultancies that rely on single-client or single-lot awards.
