Infrastructure

In many cases, prequalification is an entry requirement for participation in our awards, so we would like to give you a comprehensive overview of our prequalification procedure on this page.

• Details of all commodity groups can be found here: Commodity groups in detail
• An overview of all commodity groups for switchgear 16.7 Hz and DC can be found here: Switchgear and DC

In all other categories, the eligibility is checked individually during the awarding process. No prequalification is required here.

The Prequalification process includes 2 stages after the registration. After the successful completion of these stages, you will be included in our pool of preferred suppliers and you are able to participate in the awarding process from now on.

More detailed information on the Prequalification process, the minimum criteria for the individual categories, the costs and much more are contained in our process rules for the Infrastructure Procurement prequalification system.

• Sample questionnaires from stage 1 of the PQ process (for information purposes only and soon available in English)
• Proof documents to be uploaded in stage 1 of the PQ process (for information purposes only and soon available in English)
• Reference project documents to be uploaded in stage 2 of the PQ process (soon available in English)

• Any interested and legally independent company must submit its own application (see Section 2 (3) of the process rules below).
• Companies can draw on the capabilities of other companies and join forces to form an applicant community. Applicant communities are on a par with individual applicants within the approval system. The intended formation of an applicant community must be declared by all members prior to registration while naming the commodity group(s) and must be sent by e-mail to the entity performing the prequalification at lmpq@deutschebahn.com (see Sections 2 (5) and 3 (10) of the process rules).
• If more than one prequalification is required for tenders by the Infrastructure division, companies that do not themselves have all the necessary prequalifications can draw on prequalified subcontractors. Please find an overview of all the prequalified companies for each commodity group below.
