Technical requirements: This contract notice concerns the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) acquisition of 580 pcs. Underwater Sound signals with explosive charge.

The contract includes two options of each 150 pcs. additional Underwater Sound Signals with explosive charge per year for a period of 2 years, for a total number of up to 300 pcs. additional Underwater Sound Signals.
DALO has decided not to divide the contract into lots due to this would unduly increase the cost of all concerned.
The reason for the termination is that DALO has become aware of some inexpediencies in the Mandatory Requirements which may have lead to a lack of competition for the acquisition of Underwater Sound Signals with explosive charge. DALO has therefore chosen to terminate the tender procedure without an award.
