Phase 4: Construction, 
Phase 5: Operation. 
Furthermore, the project consists of the following consultancy contracts: 
­ 1) M5 ØHA Civil Works, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and utilities for phase 2.1­4 (the contract is awarded
to a joint venture consisting of COWI A/S and Arup Denmark) 
2) M5 ØHA Transportation Systems consultancy for phase 2.1 (The contract was awarded to Rambøll Denmark and the work performed by Rambøll is the basis for this tender) 
3)M5 ØHA_Areas and Rights (the contract was awarded to COWI A/S)

The TS-­consultancy contract entails services such as: ­
Railway Infrastructure such as: ­ Automatic Train Control – Platform Screen Doors – Passenger Security and Information System – Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), including local SCADA ­Control Centre ­Transmission System ­Radio communication System – Intrusion Detection and Access Control Systems ­Operation. Maintenance supplies ­Track ­Power. The TS Consultancy contract for phase 2.2­4 also includes reference design for the Control and Maintenance Centre (CMC).
Please refer to Project and Work Description M5-MS-GEN-Gen-CON-REP-000003 for a detailed description of the services included in the TS­-consultancy contract. 
This contract only covers the stretch from Københavns Hovedbanegaarden to Refshaleøen.
As part of the M5 project, Metroselskabet will at a later stage tender out construction contracts for both civil works and the transportation systems. To secure the independency of the consultants involved in the project, the tenderer awarded the TS-consultancy contract (this tender) cannot also act as an consultant for the Civil Works Contractors and/or the Transportation Systems Contractors. This is primarily due to the scope of work / services for the TS-consultant which includes an obligation to deliver consultancy services related to the preparation of the tender for the Civil Works Contractor and the Transportation Systems Contractor, including assisting Metroselskabet with the evaluation of the tenders received in those tender procedures. To secure the principles of equal treatment and transparency in both this tender procedure and the upcoming procedures, Metroselskabet has therefore included in the consultancy agreement a contractual obligation to refrain from working for the Civil Works Contractor and the Transportation Systems Contractor.
