Calibration and Maintenance of Minor Plant & Equipment (MPE) Instruments

Sydney Trains seeks a qualified supplier with NATA or ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation to provide calibration & repair of all MPE instruments in line with manufacturer requirements and Australian Standards

Project goals

The goal of this project is to make sure all Minor Plant and Equipment (MPE) instruments used by Sydney Trains are safe, accurate and ready for use on critical rail works. The Contractor will calibrate, inspect and repair these instruments so they meet manufacturer requirements, Australian Standards and Sydney Trains procedures. All work must be carried out by suitably qualified staff using NATA, ISO/IEC 17025 or equivalent traceable accreditation to ensure technical quality and compliance.

The project also aims to provide a consistent, well-planned service model across all depot locations, with clear time frames for repair and return, minimal disruption to operations, and strong communication with Sydney Trains.

The solution is considered fit for purpose when MPE instruments are correctly calibrated, faults are identified and fixed quickly, service records and certificates are accurate and complete, and Sydney Trains has clear visibility of asset status through reports and registers. This supports safe, reliable and efficient delivery of Sydney Trains projects across the network and corridor.
