# Qualification system for rolling stock cabling and engineering

NedTrain B.V. has published a qualification system for suppliers in three categories: electrical engineering and design or production engineering; railway low-, high-voltage and data cables; and cable systems, bundles or kits. NS expects future cabling work during the overhaul of its VIRMm1 and VIRMm4 train fleets. The official notice says the qualification system has indefinite duration. TenderNed lists 30 June 2039 as its closing date and 12:30 as the time, without stating a timezone, so the date is shown without an offset. Applications must be submitted in Dutch. No estimated value is stated.
