Technical requirements: IKOMM AS invites tenderers, on behalf of Enebakk municipality, to a market survey for the procurement of a new top management system for the municipality ́s treatment plant.

Enebakk municipality shall procure and implement a joint, modern top system (SCADA/SD) in 2025 and 2026 for monitoring and control of its two sewage treatment plants and 33 pump stations. The project shall replace the current shared systems and provide higher operational security, improved event management and full traceability of process data. The system shall meet strict requirements for information security and stand-by, reduce operational and energy costs and ensure that the municipality meets the current environmental and reporting requirements. The procurement only includes sewage treatment; water supply is not part of the project.

>: We would like to carry out a market survey (RFI) in order to gain insight into relevant systems, technology and suppliers. Furthermore, we would like to invite up to 4 providers to public dialogue meetings to take a closer look at the options that can offer to ensure a good future orientated procurement.

The dialogue meetings are planned to be held 27.8 and 28.8 as physical meetings at Enebakk municipality, with an option for participation in Teams. Relevant tenderers will be selected based on relevance, experience and references from equivalent and comparable installations and installations.

The objective of the market survey is to:

* Gain insight into what systems and suppliers are available in the market

* Examine how the tenderers handle technical requirements, integration, security and stand-by

* Map technological trends, particularly regarding communication with field equipment (PLS, sensors, etc.)

* Using the knowledge to improve the requirement specifications and choice of procurement strategy.
   
> This market dialogue will be carried out as a voluntary and non-binding request for information (Request for Information – RFI), cf. FOA § 9-3 and § 12-2, which allow contracting authorities to obtain information about the market before any competition.

> 

> This is not part of a competition and does not involve any obligations for Enebakk municipality or for the tenderers who choose to provide answers.

> 

> Tenderers who participate in the market dialogue will not be given any kind of competition, and participation (or lack of participation) will not lead to exclusion from a later competition. Any future procurements will be implemented in accordance with public procurement regulations, and all tenderers will be able to compete on equal terms.

> We therefore invite interested suppliers to provide written input and possibly participate in dialogue meetings. Participation is voluntary and the market dialogue is not binding for the municipality or suppliers. Good if suppliers can give feedback on the possibility of participation in the dialogue meetings that are planned.

> attached a disposition/questionnaire for the market survey.

> All dialogue will take place in the KDV tool Artifik for traceability. Please use Artifik support if this tool is unknown to suppliers.
