Sydney Metro is Australia’s biggest public transport project – by 2024, Sydney will have 31 metro stations and more than 66 kilometres of new automated metro rail, revolutionising the way Australia’s biggest city travels. By the end of the decade, the network will be expanded to include 46 stations and more than 113 kilometres of rail.
The systems frameworks packages outlined here are comprised of 2 concurrent tenders for Sydney Metro West – the first is for lifts, the second is for a suite of electronic security, communications and fire detection solutions.
Tender Package 2 includes:
• Building management control systems (BMCS)
• CCTV system
• Public address system
• Fire indicator panels and fire detection systems
• Passenger information display system
• Access control system.
The Systems Frameworks Packages include equipment and systems where consistency of product is desired across the Sydney Metro West project and where such consistency would not necessarily be achieved without Sydney Metro selecting and nominating the equipment and system suppliers.
The motivations and potential benefits from ensuring consistency of systems and equipment across the project include:
* Reduced systems integration risk from standardisation
* Ease of future inventory management and maintenance
* Economies of scale and value for money
* Improved ability to manage upgrades to systems and equipment
* Consistency of quality
* Consistent identity and branding.
With the delivery of the project works being separated into multiple stations packages, line-wide and trains, signalling, maintenance and operations (TSMO) packages (together the works package contractors), there is a need in the case of certain systems and equipment to require the various contractors for these packages to procure from the same designated suppliers.
Scope of services under the framework contract for tender package 1 and tender package 2 include:
* Supporting works package tenderers as relevant to develop their binding bids,
* Supporting works package contractors during delivery under the terms of the relevant design supply and install contract, with:
(i) Design support
(ii) Supply
(iii) Installation
(iv) Testing and commissioning
(v) Interim maintenance of installed equipment to completion of each works package.
* Maintenance for an initial period, at the option of the operator, under the terms of an operator maintenance services contractor that is included as part of the framework contract.
For Tender Package 2, Sydney Metro will select framework contractors for each system individually in order to cover the scope of the tender package. Applicants can apply for one or more system(s) in the package and may be selected as the framework contractor for more than one system. There is no requirement for the applicant to apply for all items in the package.
Full details of the ROI process for the Sydney Metro West – systems frameworks packages will be set out in the invitation to submit a registration of interest document which will be available on 10 December 2021.
This tender closes on January 31, 2022 – you can find out more here.
