Description of the procurement

IE seek to procure new bolsters and bogies for the 071 locomotive fleet. The
071 fleet consists of eighteen (18) locomotives, primarily used for freight
services on the Irish Rail network. These locomotives are a six axle
configuration, originally supplied by General Motors Electromotive Division in
1976 and classified as EMD JT22CW series diesel-electric locomotives.
The bogies and bolsters are of cast steel construction and support safety critical
bogie components such as brake gear, traction motors, wheel gear and
suspension equipment. The locomotives accumulate less than 80,000km with
the bogies and bolsters subject to a heavy maintenance overhaul approximately
every 6-8 years.
A requirement of this heavy maintenance activity is Magnetic Particle Inspection
(MPI) testing and crack removal/repair. This operation has introduced
considerable time and expense to production activities to the point whereby it
has necessitated this procurement activity. Consequently all new components
under this Contract are to be supplied in accordance with the highest possible
levels of manufacturing quality in order to eliminate heavy maintenance crack
repairs going forward.
In support of IE’s quality requirements is will be required that all necessary
quality control documentation be made available by the successful tenderer to
IE in order to support IE’s internal change approval process, and to ensure that
the bogies and bolsters to be supplied will be identical in form, fit and function to
the existing units. No modifications are to be required, or will be permitted, to
any existing interfacing components.
IE require that the complete fleet requirement of 36 bogies and 36 bolsters be
spread out evenly over a five (5) year period and that orders be delivered in a
minimum quantity of two (2) bogies and two (2) bolsters at a time.
