DBEC Hill JV Picked as Gurugram Metro General Consultant

Gurugram Metro Rail Limited (GMRL) has named the joint venture of Deutsche Bahn Engineering & Consultancy and Hill International as the preferred bidder for the general consultant role on the city’s new 28.8 km corridor, which will run from Millennium City Centre to Cyber City through 27 stations.

The consultancy tender, issued in May 2024 with an estimated value of around Rs 1.35 billion, was extended to attract firms with proven metro expertise. A senior GMRL official confirmed the JV’s selection after negotiations in Panchkula, adding that the four year contract will be signed once procedural clearances are complete.

The consultant will review the detailed project report, finalise designs, prepare tenders, supervise construction, manage testing and commissioning, devise disaster and security plans, and co ordinate stakeholder engagement to ensure timely delivery of the line.

SYSTRA, already appointed as detailed design consultant, has finished geotechnical studies and is finalising the alignment. GMRL has also opened civil works bids for the first construction phase and is evaluating eight submissions from major contractors.
