Description

The Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) wishes to enter in to a framework agreement for acquisition and sustainment of thermographic cameras. The cameras will be used for locating fire, search for persons, search and rescue at sea and monitoring temperatures for preventive maintenance and monitoring of electrical and technical equipment. The Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) wishes to enter in to a framework agreement for acquisition and sustainment of thermographic cameras. This tender has previously been published as an open procedure under contract notice 2017/S 108-216716, which was discontinued as only irregular offers was received, cf. contract award notice 2017/S 211-437988. In accordance with Section 61(1)(2) and Section 61(4) of the Danish Public Procurement Act (in Danish "udbudsloven"), a competitive procedure with negotiation without prior publication of a contract notice was initiated with the participant of the open procedure, who submitted a tender in accordance with the formal requirements of the procurement procedure, and complied with the requirements stipulated in section 159(2)(2)(1-3), Avon Polymer Product Ltd. As part of the negotiations, DALO has withdrawn a requirement for an independent price on the accessory “screen protection” to the thermographic camera. The reason is that the offered technical solution of the thermographic camera does not entail a removable screen protection but a hardened screen, which fulfills DALOs needs. The price of the accessory constitute a very small part of the total value of the framework agreement as well as the evaluation price. DALO assesses that the requirement does not constitute an essential element of the tender material and hence that the change is in accordance with the public procurement rules. DALO intents to enter into a contract with Avon Polymer Product Ltd after the expiration of 10 days counted from the day after the publication of this voluntary ex ante transparency notice.
