FBRS JV is seeking expressions of interest from suppliers capable of providing a road-rail trailer solution to transport and handle 216m long welded rail sections across tracked and trackless environments, including tunnels.

The solution may be bespoke, modified from an existing asset, or based on a proven product. It must be capable of safely transporting at least eight 216m rail sections per load, operating on both road and rail, negotiating 5,000m radius curves, maximum 160mm canted sections can't deficiency, 3.50% maximum gradients, and achieving speeds above 10km/h, subject to supplier technical evidence.

Suppliers should be able to demonstrate relevant capability and experience in road-rail plant, specialist rail handling equipment, design/modification, certification, testing, operation, and maintenance. FBRS JV is also interested in solutions that support reuse, asset repurposing, and lower-carbon outcomes.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this transport & logistics opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
