M700.CN.2005 - Supply Chain Opportunity Portal/ Supply Chain Brokerage Portal.

Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII)

## Summary Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) is procuring an off-the-shelf Supply Chain Opportunity Portal (SCOT) to publicize procurement opportunities for the MetroLink project. The contract includes minimal software modification, staff training, and technical support for the Dublin-based initiative.

## Scope & Deliverables - Supply of an online, off-the-shelf Supply Chain Brokerage Portal. - Minimal modification to meet TII’s specific requirements. - Delivery of associated staff training sessions. - Ongoing technical support for the duration of the contract. - Portal functionality to support self-registration and expression of interest submissions by MetroLink buying organizations and SMEs.

## Key Requirements - Registration on the Metrolink eSourcing Portal (Jaggaer) is mandatory before submission. - Suppliers must navigate to the "PQQs/ ITTs Open to All Suppliers" tab to locate and respond to the ITT. - Compliance with Directive 2014/25/EU (Utilities Directive) is required. - Specific eligibility criteria, qualifications, or prior experience levels are not detailed in the provided excerpt; refer to the full ITT document on the portal for exact technical and financial thresholds.

## Commercials & Timeline - Estimated Value: €195,000 (excluding VAT). - Contract Duration: 36 months. - Submission Deadline: Monday, June 22, 2026, at 12:00 IST. - Framework/DPS: No framework agreement or Dynamic Purchasing System applies; this is a standard open procedure.

## How to Bid - Submission Method: Online via the Metrolink eSourcing Portal at https://metrolink.app.jaggaer.com/. - Language: English. - Key Documents: Prepare a response to the ITT located under the "Supply Chain Opportunity Portal/ Supply Chain Brokerage Portal" listing. Ensure all exclusion grounds and selection criteria from the procurement document are addressed.

## Bid Considerations - SME Opportunity: The portal explicitly aims to engage SMEs within the MetroLink supply chain, suggesting a favorable environment for smaller, agile software providers. - Low Customization: The requirement for an "off-the-shelf" solution with "minimal modification" reduces implementation risk and development costs compared to bespoke builds. - Competitive Landscape: As an open procedure, expect competition from established e-procurement and supply chain management software vendors. - Administrative Hurdle: Bidders must already be registered on the Jaggaer platform; failure to complete this prerequisite registration will result in disqualification.
