Tender description

ScotRail Trains Limited (SRT) would like to inform the potential scope and specification for the provision of an on-train Energy Metering (EM) solution across the ScotRail fleet. Prospective suppliers who have the capacity and capability are asked to register an interest on the Public Contracts Scotland site to help inform the tender documents for the future of these services. We invite all interested suppliers to complete a questionnaire via our Wax e-sourcing portal which can be accessed here: https://scotrail.wax-live.com/S2C/DisplayModules/TradeModules/Negotiations/Opportunities/ViewEvent.aspx?EventID=290&ApplicationInstanceID=27adc89e-0cb2-4b51-9bc1-34061f10156f The questionnaire is open for a period of 4 weeks, however ScotRail will review submissions as and when received. Following the deadline for responses to this market consultation, the intent is that SRT shall hold follow-up engagement sessions with individual bidders in relation to their response. It is envisaged that these shall be held w/c 19th August 2024 either via MS Teams or face-to-face at our Head Office in Glasgow City Centre. Please confirm on the questionnaire response whether you will join virtually or F2F. Lot 1: ScotRail Trains Limited (SRT) would like to inform the potential scope and specification for the provision of an on-train Energy Metering (EM) solution across the ScotRail fleet. As part of this Periodic Indicative Notice, SRT is conducting a Pre-Tender Market Consultation exercise to obtain up-to-date information and feedback from the market in order to: - understand market capabilities and solutions in relation to an On-Train EM solution which would be functional across our fleet to adhere to Network Rail billing requirements; - understand possible implementation timescales for an EM solution; - understand any possible risks, barriers and constraints; - gain an indication of the whole-life costs associated with your proposed solution This exercise is being carried out in advance of any formal procurement process. It is not a pre-qualification or tendering exercise. The results of this exercise will be used to inform SRT’s decision making process only and may or may not result in a future tendering exercise. Full details can be found within the attached documentation.
