OCS has renewed its contract to deliver facilities management services across the Elizabeth line, following the award of a new concession to GTS Rail Operations (GTS), a joint venture between the Go-Ahead Group, Tokyo Metro, and Sumitomo.
The new contract runs for an initial three-year term, with the option for a further two-year extension. OCS will continue to provide essential facilities management services across 28 Elizabeth line stations covering the West, East and Central sections.
Having maintained a continuous presence on the Elizabeth line since 2017, OCS has supported its journey from construction through to the whole operation, playing a key role in maintaining the quality, safety, and reliability of one of the UK’s most important transport networks.
Supporting a High-Performing Railway
Under the renewed contract, OCS will deliver a comprehensive range of services including mechanical and electrical maintenance, fabric maintenance and station cleaning.
The Elizabeth line now carries up to 800,000 passenger journeys every day, making it the busiest railway service in the UK. OCS’s longstanding operational experience and understanding of the network were key factors in the decision to extend the partnership.
