Notice Title
Low Emissions Rolling Stock (New or Converted) for Chiltern Railways
Notice Description
The Chiltern Railway Company Limited (Chiltern), further to notices 000-026866 and 000-026867, is now also seeking proposals from established rolling stock manufacturers, owners and modifiers for the supply of between 20 and 70 new or converted low emission rolling stock multiple units, and associated maintenance, infrastructure and depot upgrade services. This rolling stock must achieve a meaningful reduction in the exhaust emissions and exterior noise levels compared to Chiltern's existing diesel multiple units, particularly in urban areas. For the avoidance of doubt, notices 000-026866 and 000-026867 for battery electric multiple units remain live and active; and are independent and separate procurements to this notice. The subject of this procurement notice does not include full battery electric multiple units. Chiltern is now seeking offers for other low emissions solutions as a possible alternative or in addition to full battery electric multiple units. This notice does not relate to the financing of Rolling Stock, Chiltern may separately seek a financer to support the purchase. Interested parties should register their interest to participate via the email address listed above.
Lot Information
Lot 1
Chiltern operate passenger rail services over lines within the Chilterns and Midlands areas of England under a National Rail Contract agreed with the UK's Secretary of State for Transport. Chiltern is assessing its rolling stock strategy and in particular, the supply of rolling stock that can achieve low emission operation. Chiltern is seeking to invite expressions of interest and tenders for the supply of low emission rolling stock (new or converted) to operate passenger services. The rolling stock may be purchased together with selected maintenance services, and any refuelling infrastructure and any modifications and upgrades to the maintenance locations as necessitated by the proposed solution. Interested parties should register their interest in taking part by emailing arrivarailtenders@arriva.co.uk to receive further information. A supplier selection stage will be used to evaluate applicants' suitability to proceed to the tendering stages. Responders should have the technical capability and competency to manufacture, test, certify and maintain low emission rolling stock. Interested parties should note Chiltern is undertaking this new procurement in parallel with the existing procurement processes relating to the supply of new or re- manufactured battery electrical multiple units (notices 000-026866 and 000-026867). Chiltern reserves the right, working with the DfT, to select any or none of the combination of new or converted rolling stock solutions. Partaking in this procurement process may not result in any contract award and suppliers partake at their own cost and risk.
