Qatar will float tenders for the manufacture and supply of rail coaches and the installation of control systems for the Greater Doha Metro project by the second quarter of 2013, it has been announced.
The multi-billion project will see a workshop organised for prospective bidders to familiarise themselves with the tendering process and safety aspects of the control systems, Qatar Rail said in a report by The Peninsula, a Doha based newspaper.
Companies with a proven track record in the manufacture of rail coaches and the installation of control systems for mega rail projects can send in workshop requests to info@qr.com.qa.
Qatar Rail said that work on the first phase of the project, that of making designs and construction sites ready, had already begun.
