Description
High Speed Two (HS2) Limited (HS2) seeks tenders from suitably qualified and experienced organisations to provide an OCS system to enable the provision of electrical traction power to its rolling stock, as well as to provide professional development and support services in relation to that system. High Speed Two (HS2) Limited (HS2) is the body responsible for developing and promoting the new high speed railway system known as High Speed Two (HS2). Current planning is for HS2 to run between London and Birmingham (Phase 1) followed by the Birmingham to Crewe link (Phase 2a) 1 year later, with the remaining Crewe to Manchester and Birmingham to Leeds links (Phase 2b) 6 years thereafter. This procurement is 1 of a number of procurements and arrangements being established to deliver the HS2 project. In particular, it is part of the tranche of work known as Railway Systems which includes signalling, communications, power and track. Within Railway Systems is the requirement to design and install the overhead catenary system (OCS). It is anticipated that the wider Railway Systems work will form the subject of separate procurement(s) and be advertised in the OJEU in due course in accordance with HS2's wider programme. Nevertheless, HS2 sees important benefits in the early identification of the OCS to be used. These include the earlier provision of developed and detailed design information to HS2's main works civils contractors as well as the inclusion of more detailed information about the proposed system in the Railway Systems procurement documents. HS2 Ltd therefore seeks to procure at this time through this procurement the following package of work: (i) The licensing to HS2 Ltd (and any relevant third parties as specified in the procurement documents) of a TSI-compliant OCS system which is able to achieve and support operations at 360 km/h across all potential phases of the HS2 project. The licence will permit those relevant activities set out in the procurement documents including related design development, construction, installation and maintenance of the system; (ii) Such upgrading and development work directly necessary to allow an OCS system to attain the standards in (i) above. Whilst HS2 Ltd encourages any solution which meets its requirements set out in the procurement documents for the system, it understands that a number of suppliers have already developed systems that are in its view close to having attained such performance standards. It therefore anticipates (but does not require) that this element of work may take the form of upgrading and development rather than designing and developing an entirely new system. The attention of would-be tenderers is drawn to the programming and budget constraints identified in the procurement documents; (iii) To provide a concept layout design for use of the system on Phase 1 (and potentially Phases 2a and 2b through (iv) below) of the HS2 project; (iv) Ongoing technical support services as described in the procurement documents. Full details of the contract scope are set out in the procurement documents (see VI.3) below). HS2 Ltd reserves the right to amend this scope as may be provided for in the procurement documents provided this is in accordance with applicable law. The contract will be awarded to the successful tenderer and will continue in force until the completion of the Services (see the procurement documents for further details). Section II.2.7) sets out the estimated duration of activities (i), (ii) and (iii) above and excludes activity (iv), the licence duration and work in relation to Phases 2a and 2b which if instructed at all may occur later in time according to the wider HS2 Project programme. HS2 Ltd also reserves the right to award a contract or contracts for part of the scope only or not to award any contract at all. The figure in II.2.6) excludes work relating to Phases 2a and 2b.
