Provision of Rail Operations Systems - Extension of Contract

Tender description

This contract extension is being entered into to provide SE Trains Limited with continuity of service for operationally critical rail operations systems, including the migration from the supplier's outgoing system to the new release. The contract will also have an option to migrate another unsupported system for train crew, drivers and other colleague rostering to the supplier's software solution for this. The contract is being extended to provide sufficient time to allow SE Trains to finalise its specification for these services, compliantly tender and implement a solution. Lot 1: The Authority currently has a live contract with the supplier for the provision of rail operations services and intends to directly award an extension to this contract, combining an option for migrating safety and operationally critical rostering to the supplier's software solution. The duration of this contract extension shall have a term of three years, with two further years permitted as optional extensions to be exercised at the discretion of the Authority based on the readiness of any replacement solution.
