V/Line has released the refresh of the Rail Quarry & Ballast Panel on the Zycus platform.

This is the ONLY platform that tender documentation will be available on.

Attendance at Tender Briefing is not mandatory, but is very highly recommended. Tender Briefing will be via Teams.

Please email Tenders@vline.com.au with the title “RFT 801765 – Briefing Invitation Requested” with the email addresses of the participants BEFORE 9:00am Monday 27 March.

Please note the following information and take the appropriate action.

V/Line now uses Zycus as its procurement system, and as part of our procurement process, we will use Zycus for tender events.

What this means for you

As part of our implementation of Zycus, we have also introduced the Zycus Supplier Network (ZSN) portal, which is a secure, online platform that enables suppliers to engage with V/Line digitally. Tender documentation is available to be viewed via the ZSN portal, and V/Line will be accepting tender responses submitted via ZSN.

How to access ZSN

Active V/Line vendor: Please contact V/Line at: procurementsystems@vline.com.au to request your unique ZSN registration link which allows you to create your ZSN account with V/Line. If you already have a ZSN account linked to V/Line, please login using your existing login information.

View tender documentation

After your ZSN registration is complete, you will be able to login to ZSN and view the tender documentation which has been released 18 March 2025 from your ZSN account V/Line home page.

Submitting a tender response

V/Line will only be accepting responses submitted via ZSN. Please login to the ZSN Portal during the tender open period to complete and submit your response. Please note that V/Line has released Advance Tender Notices on TendersVic, while tenders will be available via the ZSN portal (tenders will not be hosted on the TendersVic platform).
