Notice Title
CLIP Electronic Communication Network(ECN) Harnesses
Notice Description
CLIP Electronic Communication Network(ECN) Harnesses (assembly of cables) for 12 train sets
Procurement Information
The reason for the Direct Award: Harting ECN components are required by the contracts for Data Transmission System (DTS) and Passenger Information System (PIS). It is also part of the design integration for the other saloon systems i.e. CCTV. The provision of ECN components has been descoped within the DTS/PIS contracts so it can be supplied as integrated harnesses (a chain configuration as opposed to individual ECN cables). Any deviance from this agreed cable would invalidate the warranty associated with the DTS/PIS & CCTV Systems (contained within the drawings of the system) as we would have used a part that is not of the formally agreed design, thereby invalidating the Declarations of Design Performance. Without provision of the ECN harnesses, the new systems will be unable to be operated.
