The awarded contract will contain 2 framework agreements. The 2 agreements will be purchasing of (1) military terrain capable trucks, including armour protection, and commercial road trucks for general transportation of goods (acquisition) including a wide range of services, support and spare parts for the terrain capable trucks and commercial trucks, and (2) a system house engineering agreement regarding engineering development and configuration management.
The total quantity of purchases is not determined and may vary accordingly but a provisional estimate is that 400 - 500 military terrain capable trucks and 300 - 400 commercial trucks will be procured. The Danish Defence intends to perform service and maintenance of the trucks at Danish Defence maintenance establishments. However, the supplier shall deliver various services such as spare parts, help desk, configuration management, engineering and other related service, and be able to deliver sustainment (repair and maintenance) of the trucks (in extraordinary situations) also. The contract will be awarded to 1 tenderer.
(1) Agreement regarding acquisition: The term ‘military terrain capable truck’ is understood as a range of trucks capable driving off road in various harsh environments and conditions. The terrain capable trucks are expected to be used in both military international operations and for training purposes in Denmark. The military terrain capable trucks must be delivered both in variants where the drivers cab is unprotected, and in variants where the drivers cab is protected up to STANAG 4569. The military terrain capable trucks will vary in terms of truck body, drivers cab and superstructure. The agreement will also cover truck bodies without mounted superstructure. The agreement shall cover the truck bodies 4 x 4, 6 x 6 and 8 x 8, unprotected driver's cabs and driver's cabs protected to various protection levels for mine protection, ballistic protection and IED according to STANAG 4569. Furthermore, the agreement will cover different superstructures, for instance hook lift, container frame, flat-bed, dump, crane, winch, hydraulic tailboard, 5th wheel etc., all in various configurations. The commercial trucks are standard civilian trucks. The trucks must be able to be fitted with various superstructures and builds, for example container frame, tanker, flat bed, with sides / curtains and fifth wheel. The trucks will be used for the transport of cargo and goods.
Furthermore, the agreement will include a wide range of services', support, spare parts and training and education services for the military terrain capable trucks and commercial trucks:
— Delivery of spare parts, tires, support and test equipment. DALO does not intend to establish a significant store of spare parts, thus the Supplier must be able to deliver all relevant spare parts, support equipment and test equipment within reasonable time.
— Technical Support. When needed, the Supplier must be able to provide maintenance and repair services as well as technical support in Denmark, and should be able to provide maintenance and repair services and technical support in international missions.
— Training and education of user staff, repair personnel and senior staff in the use, handling and repair of the military tactical trucks.
(2) Agreement regarding system house engineering: The agreement shall ensure that DALO can adapt the vehicle configuration to future operational needs. Modifications will primarily cover support to integrate Government furnished equipment (GFE), supplied by DALO, into/onto the vehicles. The agreement comprises the following services:
1) Engineering: The Supplier shall be able to act as technical advisor in regard to upgrades, modifications and integration of GFE supplied by DALO.
2) Configuration management including development history of the vehicles covering possible subjects like product history, documentation, manuals, components and vehicle configurations.
4) Integration: The supplier shall be able to conduct actual installations and integrations, if requested by DALO.
Guaranteed minimum purchase: DALO guarantees a minimum purchase of minimum 200 military terrain capable trucks. DALO reserves the right to increase this volume during the tender procedure.
