Technical requirements: Rogaland fylkeskommune [Rogaland County] intends to enter into a contract without a competition, with EcoOnline for the delivery of a digital chemical index with access to a common database and module for an exposure register.
Rogaland County's current supplier is SafeUse. This supplier has been bought by EcoOnline. After this acquisition, EcoOnline is considered to be without real competitors in the market in regard to solutions and system suitable for our use as a county entity.
The Contracting Authority considers EcoOnline to be the only supplier who can deliver the relevant service.
The supplier's system satisfies Rogaland County's need for user-friendliness, functionality and Norwegian language. The solution is used by multiple other counties and will therefore also be able to offer a common database, specially adapted to the Contracting Authority's need.
In a new contract, the risk assessment of chemicals must include consumption quantity, and then also very small quantities adapted to use in dental clinics and in student tests in laboratories. All communication with support, contact person and supplier must take place in Norwegian during the contract period.
The attached needs specification was the basis for the current contract. If the new contract is put out to tender, an updated version of the needs specification will be used in the contract.
The contract period is planned to have a 3 year duration. The contract is then renewed automatically for 1 year at a time unless terminated in accordance with the contract terms.
The Contracting Authority anticipates a total contract period of between eight and ten years including extensions.
The Contracting Authority anticipates that the contract start-up will occur shortly after the deadline set for feedback regarding this notice. If there are objections to signing a contract directly with a supplier without a competition, the Contracting Authority will take any objection into consideration and assess if the contract will first be entered into after a competition is held.
