Technical requirements: OFCOM would like to acquire a bottom-up cost model, which provides a well-founded estimate of the costs of a hypothetical mobile tenderer for the construction and operation of a mobile radio network. The nationwide network has to be based on current 4G and 5G technology. The model should reflect primarily the costs of individual wholesale services. In addition, however, it should provide answers to policy questions i.a. related to population coverage and the cost of construction and operation of such networks in particular areas (cf. endogenous variables).
The verification of competences must be submitted absolutely complete and without restriction or modification in writing. If not complete, the tender offer will not be evaluated.
Excerpt from the official commercial register and debt collection register no older than 3 months. In the case of tenderers from abroad, comparable current official documentation from the foreign country.
The tenderer confirms that it itself as well as third parties engaged by it (sub-contractors and sub-suppliers) comply with the procedural principles according to the self-declaration sheet of the Federal Procurement Conference (BKB).
Tenderers with more than 50 employees and their first-level sub-contractors each with more than 50 employees must in addition to the self-declaration prove how wage practice was verified.
(a) legally valid signature of the self-declaration of the Federal Procurement Conference BKB (Annex 3).
— equal pay self-test Logib (https://www.ebg.admin.ch/ebg/en/home/services/equal-pay-self-test-tool--logib.html). The ‘Summary (rtp_fazit)’ sheet is to be submitted with a legally valid signature.
— wage equality analyses by third parties, if the standard analysis model of the Confederation (https://www.ebg.admin.ch/ebg/en/home/topics/work/equal-pay/government-controls-in-public-procurement.html) is used.
The tenderer has sufficient international experience with bottom-up mobile radio cost models which are comparable with the present contract in terms of content, scope and complexity. It provides evidence of this experience based on at least 1 reference within the last 4 years.
For each reference model, an appropriate fully completed reference form is to be submitted (Annex 5). The client reserves the right to contact the designated contact persons. The contact person mentioned must be reachable.
If the model or a comparable model has already been the subject of a public consultation, a summary of the results thereof should be attached to the offer. If the model was the subject of an appeal or legal proceedings, this should likewise be apparent from the offer documents and the result of the procedure in this respect should be summarised.
The tenderer has the necessary personnel resources, in order to be able to fulfil the contract as described in the principal tender document.
Written confirmation with comprehensible documentation of the personnel resources deployed for the contract, including qualifications and experiences.
The tenderer has available a partner (SPOC) who is responsible in case of escalation of problems with the contract and who can take decisions.
