Qualification comes first

Rail buyers often require supplier qualification or homologation before a bid can be accepted, and some keep standing lists of approved suppliers. Check the eligibility section early, because approval for a new product can take longer than the bid period itself. Related works and equipment also appear under construction tenders and electrical equipment tenders.

Whether a certificate is mandatory depends on the buyer, so the qualification section of each railway tender should be read before pricing.
