Brève description

There will be a: Framework agreement for the acquisition of the OV 7+2+2 years and framework agreement for the sustainment of the OV 7+7+7+7 years. In addition to the framework agreement for the acquisition of the OVs there is a framework agreement that will cover sustainment, services, training, spare parts, special tools, test equipment and documentation for the OVs procured. It is expected that training and special tools will be purchased right after commencement of the framework agreements.

The OVs will be used in a wide spectrum of operational environment from training and utility vehicle in Denmark to garrison vehicle in international missions and national defence. This demands that the OVs are flexible, highly mobile and agile in the terrain but there is no need for it to be armoured. Variants: The supplier shall offer the OV in the following variants based on the same platform (text in brackets are functional descriptions): ‘Baseline’ (utility, garrison, education, 4 persons) ‘Home guard variant’ (Intelligence, suirvalience, recognizance), The vehicle shall be equipped with ring mount and soft mount (for a light machine gun) for conducting protective security and escort support, 3 persons) ‘Mechanic variant’ (Light repairs, line logistic equipment transport, 2 persons) 'Military Police MP variant' (military police tasks such as traffic control, convoy support and escort duties, 4 persons) 'Air Force/air base on site commander variant' (quick response management incidents on the air base such as emergency landings, fire fighting or evacuation activities, 4 persons).

On road: The OVs shall be possible to register in accordance with applicable Danish road traffic laws with the exception of the single fuel requirement mentioned below. The vehicle shall only require Danish driving license category B according to Danish road legislation. Engine: The main engine shall as minimum fulfil EURO III emissions norm to ensure that the vehicle comply with NATO single fuel concept. Goverment furnished equipment: Prior to delivery of OVs, the supplier shall install a variety of equipment that is furnished by DALO. This equipment could, for instance, include battle management systems, radio equipment, fire extinguisher etc. The type of equipment will depend on the variant in question. Vehicle weight: The Vehicle shall have a payload of a minimum of 800 kg.

Contract structure: The procurement will be based on two framework agreements. Thus, DALO will award: 1) An Acquisition Agreement containing the initial delivery of the OVs and options. 2) An Sustainment Agreement containing all In-Service Support services (including documentation, configuration managmenet, special tools and test equipment, training, spare parts and optional deliveries) in order to support the vehicle fleet throughout the service period for up to 28 years. The Acquisition Agreement and Sustainment Agreement are to be seen as a whole and will be awarded to the same tenderer. System house responsibility: The supplier shall have a full system responsibility. The exact terms and conditions for the supplier's system responsibility is described in detail in the Sustainment Contract, which will be available to the prequalified candidates. The expected initial delivery consists of 100 Home Guard ISR variant with Ring Mount. In addition a Military police (MP) variant, an Air Force/air base on site commander variant, a Mechanic variant and base line variant in all 450 vehicles to be delivered from 2025 to 2031. However before commencement DALO has the right to change the initial delivery amount, depending on the offered prices and available DALO budget.

Test of the OV's as part of the tender: The tenderer must provide as minimum of one OV preferable two OV's so DALO can test the vehicles. DALO's preference of preferable two OV's is to secure progress in the test, due to the fact that it is the tenderers solely responsibility that the vehicle for test at all time is able to perform the required test course. OV shall be as similar to the planned delivered vehicle as possible. As a minimum engine performance, driveline, suspension, seats and tires shall be identical to the planned delivered vehicle. OV shall be accompanied with representative selection of tools and test equipment to demonstrate regular maintenance and diagnostic activities. If a regular test is required for maintenance this shall be presented. OV shall be equipped: with standard roof rack Terrain chains: The OV shall (during selected tests) be mounted with terrain chains for terrain testing on all four wheels. Trailer coupling: OV shall be delivered with a combined pintle hook and NATO towing eye (pintle hook and 50 mm ISO standard trailer tow ball or equivalent). The height above ground shall be 610 to 640 mm. The OV shall be equipped with electrical connector/aqdapter for trailer conforming to STANAG 4007 or equivalent. 24V and 12 pin NATO socket. DALO expects that the test will take place in the weeks 21, 22, 23 and 24 2024 in Denmark. Specimen for validation and borrowing agreement will be applied, issued by DALO, duly signed by DALO and the tenderers who submit INDO.

Answers to questions received later than 6 days before the deadline af the request to participate cannot be expected. On 27. February 2024 information meeting will be held for all interested parties at Citadellet, Copenhagen, Denmark. During the meeting, DALO will explain the background of the tender procedure and the purpose of the procurement. General information as to the structure and content of the tender documents will also be provided.

DALO demands that the candidate and each of the legal entities on whose economic and financial capacities the candidate relies undertake joint and several liability for the performance of the agreement. The estimated value of the framework agreement is 900.000.000 DKK, and the maximum value of the framework agreement is 2.000.000.000 DKK The reason for the difference between the stated values is the uncertainty regarding the final value of the framework agreements, Hence, the estimated value constitutes DALO’s most qualified estimate of the value of the framework agreements at the present moment, while the maximum value constitutes the maximum value of purchases under the framework agreements in its duration. The uncertainty regarding the final value of the framework agreement is primarily caused by uncertainty regarding the operational needs of the Danish Defence through the duration of the framework agreements, including in particular uncertainty about specific deployments and mission areas, which is not possible to foresee for the entire span of the framework agreements. Thus, changes to the operational needs of the Danish Defence compared to the existing situation and needs may cause a significantly larger expenditure under the framework agreements than what is expected at the moment. the uncertainty regarding the final value of the framework agreements is also caused by DALO's expectations to the tenderer's offrs being significantly different in terms of pricing due to the possibility of offering signicantly different quality in the deliverabels to be offered. Dependent on which tenderer that will be awarded the framwork agreemnts, the expenditure on the framwork agreemnts may be sinificantly longer than what is expected to be the most likely scenario. The request to participate and the offer shall be in the language stated in section Communication. Regarding section Procedure (Second stage) it is specified that DALO will select 3 candidates by applying the criteria stated in section Procedure, unless DALO receives no more than 3 suitable/compliant requests for participation.

Dans le cas d'accords-cadres, justifier toute durée supérieure à 4 ans

Framework agreement for the acquisition of the off-road uility vehicle (OV):
That the replacement of the entire existing vehicle pool is expected to take up to 8 years incl. configuration and special construction of the individual vehicle variants, and it will neither be cost-effective, logistically, operationally nor safetywise acceptable to have vehicles delivered from several different suppliers during this period. - That the vihicles are special military all-terrain vehicles that must be used in "harsh" situations, which imposes stricter requirements on the vehicle's construction and technical characteristics, etc. The vehicles cannot therefore be substituted with vehicles from a new supplier without operational and safety risks, as a new supplier will not be able to deliver vehicles with exactly the same structure.

Framework agreement for the sustainment of the OV:
That the expected lifetime of the vehicles is at least 28 years with proper maintenance which requires the purchase of spare parts, including category 1 (OEM) spare parts. Category 1 Spare Parts covers weapon, road and personal/material safety spare parts for the OV, which due to intellectual property rights must be procured at the System Supplier. Furthermore the system house agreement shall cover configuration managament and documentations responsibilty of the supplier. That the primary purpose of the agreement is to maintain system house responsibility for the lifetime of the vehicles.

DALO concludes that it will not be possible to maintain system house responsibility if another supplier is used. That these framework agreement covers specially built vehicles. A change of supplier during the lifetime of the vehicles will therefore implies a risk that a new supplier does not have the necessary knowledge of the specially built vehicles and therfore not able to carry out the particularly complex repairs required according to the agreement.

That a change of supplier during the lifetime of the vehicles could lead to a risk that DALO cannot be supplied with spare parts to the extent that is needed, which could have an impact on the safety of the vehicles. Estimated total value of purchases for the entire duration of the framework agreement.

That a change of supplier during the lifetime of the vehicles could lead to a risk that DALO cannot be supplied with category 1 (OEM) spare parts to the extent that is needed, which could have an impact on the safety of the vehicles.

Liste et brève description des critères de sélection

A list of the most important similar deliveries (references): The candidate must provide a list of the most important similar deliveries (references) see section Object (Description of the procurement) carried out prior to the deadline for the request to participate. Only the deliveries (references) performed at the time of the deadline for the request to participate will be considered when assessing which candidate has documented the most relevant previous deliveries, cf. section Object (Description of the procurement) If the delivery in question is ongoing, it is only the part of both the supplies and services completed at the time of the deadline for the request to participate which will be included in the assessment of the delivery (reference). Consequently, if a part of both the supplies and services has not been completed at the time of the deadline for the request to participate, this particular part will not be included in the assessment of the delivery (reference). Therefore, it is important that the candidate/tenderer clearly states which part (e.g. with regard to size, value, quantity or volume) of an ongoing delivery (reference) that has been carried out. - The list should preferably include a short description of each delivery.

The description should also contain information on the date of the deliveries, the size/quantity/volume and value of the deliveries, the recipients of the deliveries (specific names/ countries are preferred, but not necessary; if no country specific information is included, the candidate is asked to provide as much generic information as possible about the delivery), and information about if similar system house agreements has been delivered. and whether there has been deliveries to Nato alies. When specifying the date for the deliveries, the candidate should state the date for the commencement and completion of the deliveries. If this is not possible, e.g. because the delivery in question is performed on an ongoing basis according to a framework agreement, the description of the deliveries should nonetheless contain information on how the date is set. The list must contain a maximum of 5 previous deliveries, whether the candidate is one entity, composed of a group of entities (e.g. consortium), including temporary joint ventures, or relies on the technical and professional capacity of other entities. If the list contains more than 5, DALO will only consider the first 5 deliveries on the list. Deliveries beyond that will be disregarded. The selection of candidates for the second stage of the tender will be based on an evaluation of which candidates have documented the most relevant previous deliveries in relation to the framework agreement described in section Object (Description of the procurement). In the evaluation, the nature of the previous deliveries will be taken into account. The evaluation will be based on the list of references submitted by the candidates, see above. please note that if the information submitted is unclear or unintelligible, this may be regarded negatively in the selection process. Please note that a candidate may rely on the technical and professional capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a sub supplier), irrespective of the legal nature of the relations between the candidate and the entity or entities on which the candidate relies. The limitation of candidates will be based on an evaluation of which candidates have documented the most relevant previous deliveries in comparison to the contract/purhases described in section Object. In the evaluation, DALO will take into account the nature and quantity of the previous deliveries, the deliveries has been to Nato allies and the time of delivery so that more recent deliveries will be deemed more relevant that older deliveries. The evaluation wil be based on the list of references submitted by the candidates according to the above. Please note that any ambiguities and/or incomprenhensibilities in the information submitted may be regarded negatively in the evaluation when selecting the limited numbers of candidates. There are no minimum requirements regarding smimilar deliveries, but the candidates must be aware that each reference will be assessed in connection with the prequalification and should therefore apply to the above mentioned information in their list of references.
