1.0 Introduction 
 
1.1.1  This document sets out the scope of services for the Project Delivery Partner 
in managing the delivery of the design and construction of the Project to the 
functional, technical, time, cost, safety, quality and environmental 
requirements as set out in the Project Development Agreement (PDA) and 
the Crossrail Act 2008.  Terms in capitals in this document have the same 
meaning as used in the PDA unless defined otherwise in the contract. 
 
1.1.2  The overarching responsibility of the Project Delivery Partner is to ensure the 
successful delivery of the central section Project, including Delivery Contracts 
and Signalling Contracts as defined in the PDA.  This will include 
responsibilities for the procurement and management of all necessary 
contracts and the management of interfaces between them and between the 
project and all stakeholders including consent granting bodies. 
 
1.1.3 The 
Employer is also procuring the services of a Programme Partner who will 
work with the Employer to form an integrated Programme delivery team.  This 
document needs to be read in conjunction with the scope of services for the 
Programme Partner to ensure that the split of responsibilities is understood 
and that the interface between the two Partners is managed effectively and 
efficiently without duplication.  The Project Delivery Partner will be required to 
work in a supportive and collaborative manner with the Programme Partner, 
as it will with the Employer
 
1.1.4 The 
Project Delivery Partner shall provide the services, staff, knowledge, 
systems and leadership resource, together with the necessary corporate 
support, to deliver the required outcomes. 
 
1.1.5  In developing Crossrail to the current position the Employer has established 
some organisational arrangements, strategies, systems, and processes to 
support the ongoing delivery of the Project and Programme.  The Employer 
has also established effective working arrangements with a wide range of 
stakeholders and interested parties.  Where the existing arrangements and 
relationships will be continuing, the Project Delivery Partner will be required 
to provide a fully supportive and committed approach in taking them forward.  
The Project Delivery Partner will also be required to identify any gaps in the 
current arrangements and systems and to set out proposals for ensuring the 
successful delivery of the Project. 
 
1.1.6 The 
Employer is procuring Design Framework Consultants to provide the 
resource needed to develop the detailed design of the Project as necessary 
for the procurement of the works (the designers).  It may be in the overall 
interests of the Project for critical design packages to be procured before the 
Project Delivery Partner is appointed.  The Project Delivery Partner will be 
required to work with the Employer and any appointed designers to ensure 
that the design requirements are successfully delivered to schedule. 
 
1.1.7  The resource requirements of the Project will vary over the Programme 
duration.  The Project Delivery Partner will need to be flexible in its 
management of resources to ensure that the appropriate resources will be 
available at the right time.
