(2021-125) Operation, maintenance and replacement of street lights, framework agreement

Description

The contest concerns a framework agreement for service and maintenance of street lights (including ignition cupboards) with materials. The framework agreement can also include new installations where this is not part of a larger contract. The supplier will provide materials for all assignments that are to be carried out by the supplier, unless the contracting authority requires otherwise. The contract value is estimated to be above the EEA threshold value. The need is uncertain. The contracting authority has previously procured for NOK 10,000,000 excluding VAT per year in recent years. The value can be both higher and lower, and will depend on, among other things, the contracting authority's needs, activities, budgetary situation and other framework factors. Maximum value including options and expected price increases: NOK 46,000,000 excluding VAT. The estimate covers the municipalities mentioned in section 1.1.1. Lot 1: The contracting authority reserves the right to order services/materials from someone other than the tenderer of the framework agreement in the event that such is deemed appropriate, or to carry out the work in-house. The volume will be dependent on amongst other things, the contracting authority's requirements, activities, budget and other framework factors. See the procurement documents for further information. Lots/groups Tenders cannot be submitted for parts of the assignment, and alternative tenders are not allowed. The contracting authority has considered dividing up the assignment in accordance with PPR, §19-4 but has decided that this is not suitable for this type of agreement. The contracting authority reserves the right to accept all or parts of a tender. Framework agreement The procurement will be regulated by the attached framework agreement with the accompanying terms. The framework agreement will be valid from and including 03.01.2023 until and including 02.28.2025, with an option for the contracting authority for a further extension for up to 2 years, 12 months at a time. The contracting authority will enter into a contract with 1- one tenderer. The contracting authority expects that the tenderer studies the contractual terms and makes the required internal clarifications in such a way that a contract can be signed if awarded.
