Description

Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) wish to invite contractors to participate in a preliminary market sounding associated with the Procurement of New Light Rail Power and Systems Technologies. TII is currently conducting a market consultation exercise in relation to the market’s perspective on various light rail procurement strategies for renewals and expansion projects. In addition, TII wish to gain insight into the latest trends and developments within the light rail power and systems disciplines. This is to aid TII in making future decisions regarding the replacement, enhancement, and expansion of the existing Luas power and control systems. TII intends to purchase state-of-the-art light rail power and systems technology in the coming years, suitable for the current and future light-rail networks in Ireland. TII would like to understand the latest technological and delivery developments, R and D developments and emerging trends for products that the market will offer regarding the relevant technologies set out in the attached Market Consultation Questionnaire. The aim of this market consultation is to gather information and provide interested parties with background information on the intended nature, structure, and scope of TII’s requirements. TII is seeking market feedback to obtain a clearer understanding of the products and services currently available. The information obtained from the market consultation may be used to ensure an effective tendering process. The attached Market Consultation Questionnaire will form the basis for supplier engagement. Responses should be submitted by close of business on Thursday the 22nd of May 2025.
