London Underground’s infrastructure boss has dismissed the current supply chain model for contracting as “unsustainable” as tube leaders cut out main contractors to work directly with specialists.
LU confirmed in April it will be dumping traditional main contracting to work directly with specialist subcontractors on its £330m stations modernisation plan over the next seven years.
Tube bosses named the 20 subcontractors and three consultants it will use after a major shake-up in the way it delivers station upgrade work.
