This is a Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Maintain (DBFOM) contract to appoint a Service Delivery Partner responsible for certain works and the integrated operation and maintenance of the public passenger transport service. The M500 Contract is one of three major contracts, alongside two civil infrastructure contracts (M400). It includes a works period of around 7 years and a 25-year services period. The estimated Net Present Value cost is approximately EUR 7.3 billion (ex. VAT). TII plans to award an Early Services Agreement to the Preferred Tenderer. The contract will be awarded through a competitive procedure; no submission deadline is stated.

Description

MetroLink will be procured by Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) through three major separate public contracts as well as a number of advance and enabling works contract packages addressing preparatory issues. The major contracts comprise a) two civil infrastructure contracts (the “M400 Contracts”) for the design and construction of the tunnels, shafts and portals, shell and core station structures (underground, retained cut and at grade), viaducts, and related MetroLink civil infrastructure, and b) a form of Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Maintain (DBFOM) contract (the “M500 Contract”) to appoint a Service Delivery Partner who will provide certain works and the integrated operation and maintenance of the public passenger transport service. This procurement process is for the award of the M500 Contract. The duration of the M500 Contract comprises a works period anticipated to be for a period of 7 years for completion of the "M500 Works" and a services period of 25 years for provision of the "M500 Services". The estimated Net Present Value (NPV) cost to the Exchequer of the service payments and capital contributions under the M500 Contract is approximately €7.3 billion (seven billion, three hundred million euros) (ex. VAT) with the Contracting Authority’s assumed construction programme plus a 25-year operating period. This NPV cost estimate is at a point in time (February 2026) and based on the Contracting Authority’s preliminary estimates of construction, operating and lifecycle costs as well as assumptions on the associated construction programme, risk allocation, finance costs, prevailing interest rates, and other factors, which are subject to change. TII proposes to award an Early Services Agreement to the Preferred Tenderer in the procurement process for the M500 Contract for the performance of certain early services during the Preferred Tenderer stage. The M500 Contract will be awarded in accordance with the procedural requirements for the competitive tendering of a public services contract under Regulation 1370/2007/EC (as amended) and under the Dublin Transport Authority Act 2008 (as amended).
