Opportunities available within the HS2 supply chain

HS2 is one the most demanding and exciting transport mega-projects in Europe. There will be thousands of business opportunities available within the HS2 supply chain right across many business sectors. These will require a wide range of capabilities which are suitable for suppliers of all sizes and required over a number of years.

HS2 Ltd will only directly procure and manage a relatively small number of high-value major works contracts which will be delivered directly by Tier One contractors. 

Through their own supply chains, these contractors will procure and manage many smaller sub-contractors, engaging a much larger and more diverse range of smaller suppliers. 

Businesses in Coventry & Warwickshire will be among these suppliers. 

It’s important that smaller sub-contact businesses understand the procurement processes and prepare themselves so they’re ready for when these business opportunities materialise. 

That’s where Coventry & Warwickshire Growth Hub can help. 

We offer a range of direct support to businesses who want to take advantage of this huge business opportunity, including

  • Publicising supplier opportunities
  • Providing diagnostic tools to help businesses to understand what they need to do 
  • Supporting businesses to get them investment ready
  • Helping with access new HS2 supplier opportunities
  • Providing with funding support
  • Helping businesses understand Building Information Modelling (BIM) and to be compliant  

Register with HS2 to receive supply chain email updates at SCC@hs2.org.uk and also visit www.gov.uk/government/collections/hs2-business to find out about basic information about HS2 business opportunities.

Client testimonials

Without the Growth Hubs help and assistance, we would never have been able to increase our sales & output and also grow our local business. With this help in purchasing new equipment we have expanded our operations and gained a new and increased customer base.

Nuneaton Roof Truss,

Over the past few years, Armstrongs has built up a fantastic relationship with Gary Thyeson from the Growth Hub. His advice on grants and funding has been really valuable to both Armstrongs and some of our clients. His knowledge of local business support has been helpful in signposting us to relevant support agencies as required. We look forward to working with Laura Delahunty moving forwards.

Armstrongs Accountancy LTD,

In the short time since first engaging with the Warwickshire Growth Hub we feel that Laura has understood our vision and has been so very supportive in linking us to the specialist teams who are now supporting us with training, finance and recruitment.

MES Systems Limited,

I have had an excellent experience working with Laura from the Growth Hub, from day one, she was taking detailed attention to my concerns and ideas. She was able to put me in contact with different organisations and people to find out answers to my questions and help me to solve some inquiries I was having. I feel this support definitely had a positive impact in my plans.

It’s been a fantastic inaugural eight months for the TalentTech Recruitment team and, although the reality of setting up and running a company can be a somewhat daunting experience, we have been extremely grateful for the superb help, advice and guidance given to us along our journey by Gavin Barnett and the team at CW Growth Hub. Gavin’s introductions to both Warwick & Coventry Universities and his wider business network have been absolutely invaluable.

Exeter Analytical (UK) Limited,

Thank you for the comprehensive and professional guidance

Burbidge & Son Ltd,

Over the years since the Growth Hub was set up we have habitually gone to our Account Manager as a one-stop shop for all business-related information.  It has been a really convenient way of finding suppliers, advisors and, on one occasion, we even asked for assistance with finding customers.  We are invited to a wide range of business events including business development workshops, Brexit roundtable discussions, seminars on various topics and have also been asked to speak at some events.  When we have needed additional information, for example, finding finance sources or help with selecti
