Technical requirements: This procurement is part of the Project ‘Sikkerhet 2021’ [Security 2021]. Following a report from an external consultant in 2018, some requirements have been set for follow-up of risk and management up to NIST level 4.
Several areas were revealed where Kartverket [the Norwegian Mapping Authority] needs improvement, such as management of the applications portfolio and client operation. To strengthen the follow-up and management, it was revealed that we need system support to do this in the best possible manner. We have implemented a needs analysis for which tools are best suited to cover these needs.
The contract will include establishing tools, operational maintenance and support, as well as consultancy services for adaptations of the tool.
This is an ongoing contract for 3 (three) years with automatic renewal of 1 (one) year at a time unless terminated by the client with 3 (three) months notice prior to the renewal date. The tenderer has the option to terminate the contract 12 (twelve) months prior to the notification of contract renewal.
The contracting authority has the option to expand the tool with additional modules in accordance with the requirement specification.
The options will be triggered when budget funds become available. Call-off of the options will be implemented in consultation with the suppliers.
Tenderers must be registered in a trade register in the member state where the tenderer is established. As described in Annex XI of Directive 2014/24/EU; suppliers from certain member countries can be required to fulfil other requirements in the mentioned annex.
Company registration certificate from the country where the tenderer is established must be forwarded to the contracting authority on request.
Creditworthiness with no requirement for guarantees will be sufficient to meet the requirement. A credit rating based on the last known accounting figures will be accepted as documentation. The rating must be carried out by a credit rating company with a licence from Datatilsynet [the Norwegian Data Protection Authority] to conduct this type of activity. The credit rating must be forwarded to the contracting authority on request.
This must be documented by an overview of the primary relevant deliveries that the tenderer has carried out during the last 3 years, together with information about the contract value, delivery dates and name of the recipient. Documentation of fulfilment of the requirement must be forwarded to the contracting authority on request.
