Supply Chain Capability Assessment

HS2 Ltd is conducting a review of UK supply chain capability mapped to HS2 demand/requirements in order to create an evidence base that enables HS2 better understand industrial strategy policy and/financing.

To support this the service provider is required to conduct a mapping exercise and gap analysis looking at HS2 asset demand together with the UK capability and capacity available to meet this demand. This analysis should be sufficiently detailed to enable HS2 to fully understand its potential UK supply chain and support any future funding/financing decisions.
