    Brief

    Iarnród Éireann (Irish Rail) is seeking suppliers for a long-term supply contract to provide rolling stock damper components over an 8-year period. The procurement is structured in five lots, each targeting specific fleet types: Lot 1 covers Locomotives (201 and 071 Class), Lot 2 covers 8500 Electric Multiple Units, Lot 3 covers MK4 Passenger Carriages, Lot 4 covers 29000 Diesel Multiple Units, and Lot 5 covers 22000 Diesel Multiple Units. Annual demand is estimated at over 2,000 damper units across 15 different types (Yaw, Lateral, Vertical, Transversal, and Pantograph) to support both heavy maintenance and emergency repair activities. Dampers are supplied in pairs for consistency across each fleet type. As dampers are classified as safety-critical components, successful bidders must demonstrate full compliance with IÉ standard CME-SMS-009 prior to contract award.
