Rigas Vagonbuves Rupnica (Riga Railcar Factory, RVR) continues to be interested in the recently announced tender by Pasazieru vilciens, and RVR is prepared to bid for it.

RVR CEO Gatis Kamaruts said, "The tender has just been announced, therefore, and we need to carefully go through the documents. Only then I will be able to say how RVR could participate, as we must first find out the requirements and payment relations."

Asked whether RVR could file an individual offer or take part in partnership with another global producer, Kamaruts said that this will depend on the tender's guidelines.

Kamaruts said, "For example, if there is a requirement that the bidder must have a record of, say, about 100 trains over the last year, then it is clear that RVR will be unable to qualify, and we shall seek a cooperation partner. However, RVR is also ready to produce trains on its own."

According to information on the Procurement Monitoring Bureau's website, Pasazieru vilciens has announced a tender for the purchase of suburban electric trains and equipment for their maintenance.

According to the announcement, Pasazieru vilciens plans to buy suburban passenger electric trains, equipment for their maintenance, and spare parts, and the bidders are also to organize personnel training and supply documents required for train maintenance.
