Rail Baltica have announced a consultation date for alliance model procurements in Estonia.

To execute the Rail Baltica project, the Estonian developer of the project Rail Baltic Estonia plans to procure the design and construction of Tootsi-Pärnu (DS3 DPS1 – 36.6km), Pärnu-Latvia border (DS3 DPS2-DPS3) mainline sections, and the Ülemiste-Pärnu main line superstructure construction.

According to the initial schedule, the procurement procedure is planned to be held in the fall of 2024 and the contract to be signed in the spring of 2025.

Rail Baltic Estonia wishes to use a value-based procurement and business model for the realization of the project, and the alliance or Integrated Project Delivery model has been considered. To carry out the procurement, it is planned to use a negotiated procurement procedure and to use value-based evaluation. “The Rail Baltica railway must be completed by 2030, and the tight schedule also means that we are constantly seeking opportunities to enhance our activities. Transitioning to a collaborative or alliance procurement model allows us to potentially announce extensive procurement packages, worth hundreds of millions of euros, by the end of this year, predominantly for the construction of railway superstructures and partially for the construction of railway substructures,” explained Anvar Salomets, CEO of Rail Baltic Estonia.

To prepare for the upcoming procurement procedure, Rail Baltic Estonia announced the date for the market consultation.

In addition, introduce the planned projects, procurement strategy, contractual distribution, implementation contract model and procurement principles.

During the market consultation, a joint information event will be held for all interested companies, and bilateral market consultation discussions will be held with potential candidates for the main contractor of the project.

Contracting authority will conduct the information event on 15th of May at – 10:00-12:30, at address Veskiposti 2-1, Tallinn, Estonia (11th floor) and via Internet in MS Teams environment.
