Rhein-Ruhr-Express procurement objection rejected
GERMANY: The Münster procurement tribunal has rejected DB Regio’s objections to the decision to call separate passenger service operating and rolling stock provision contracts for the Rhine-Ruhr Express project.
A group of four transport authorities led by Rhein-Ruhr body VRR is seeking to award three contracts for the operation of RRX regional services from December 2018.
These would use a standardised fleet of at least 71 double-deck electric multiple-units which the authorities plan to procure and finance themselves under a stand-alone train provision contract. This is because VRR was concerned that smaller potential bidders for the operating contracts might find it difficult to finance such a large order worth up to €900m.
