7624 - Supply of Friction Products for all of IÉ Rolling Stock

This is a call to competition by Iarnród Éireann for the procurement of the ‘Supply of Friction Products for CME Rolling Stock’ (the “Contract”). Iarnród Éireann operate a number of rolling stock fleets with differing friction brake requirements (i.e. axle mounted discs, wheel mounted discs, and brake blocks applied directly to the wheel). To reflect the differing friction brake requirements, the tender process has been split into 9 separate Lots. Iarnród Éireann operate a number of maintenance facilities where brake pads and brake blocks are consumed as part of the normal running maintenance activities. In addition, as part of Iarnród Éireann’s heavy maintenance activities, brake pads and brake blocks are also consumed as part of the bogie refurbishment activities. It is intended that the contract(s) awarded from this tender will serve both running and heavy maintenance requirements. Whilst the exact volume of brake pad and brake block requirements under each of the respective lots cannot be determined at this stage, it is expected that the following volumes of products will be required (± 50%) and it will be not the intention of Iarnród Éireann to re-engage with the market should the estimated quantities be exceeded on the basis that a change of contractor would cause significant inconvenience and a substantial duplication of costs to Iarnród Éireann.
