Technical requirements: Bane NOR SF has entered into contracts for the delivery of parallel framework agreements for engineer and consultancy services for energy supply.
The Bane NOR Energy unit is organizationally located in Bane NOR SF's infrastructure division. The unit purchases and transforms energy from 50 Hz to 16 2/3 Hz and currently is responsible for the supply of energy to the entire electrified national railway network.
Bane NOR Energy's Planning and Project Department investigates the need for changing the installed performance (capacity) in the converter plants. If new plants are needed, modifications and renewals of existing plants, requirements specifications and tender documentation are prepared and contracts signed with suppliers//contractors and projects are executed, where Bane NOR is the builder and contractor responsible.
Due to the future increase of train traffic, multiple investments and renewals are planned for Bane NOR Energy's installations in the next few years.
There will be a need for consultancy services for projects through the establishment of detailed plans/specifications, clarification of contracting and through follow-up in the construction period.
The procurement is for parallel framework agreements with several suppliers. The framework agreement is not economically binding. The obligation will be made via call-offs on the framework agreement after the implementation of mini-competitions.
The framework agreement will have a duration of 4 years with an option for extension for 2 + 2 years.
The individual mini-competitions/call-offs will give state specific projects that will be implemented and in which time periods. The individual mini-competitions/call-offs will also state which disciplines resources are requested for.
Projects are normally executed as turnkey contracts, where specifications are primarily stated with functional requirements and if necessary, with required detail requirements.
