Technical requirements: Refer to the announcement of the above-named competition via Mercell with announcement ID 2019-379336 in Doffin.
Since before the prequalification, the Norwegian Defence Estates Agency has been working with putting together the tender documentation that will in the best possible way safeguard the Norwegian Defence Estates Agency's needs, and that addresses the challenges we have experienced will occur in such a framework agreement.
It has always been a goal to have a coordinated platform in place with common contract and contract structure for assignments in the disciplines in the Norwegian Defence Estates Agency. In the work with the tender documentation and award criteria, it has become increasingly clear that a parallel framework agreement, the way it was intended, is not a good enough solution to meet the needs of the Norwegian Defence Estates Agency.
We cannot correct this in any other manner than cancelling the competition, and announcing it anew in another division and competition form. We therefore have no other option than to cancel the competition.
The Norwegian Defence Estates Agency hereby cancels this competition pursuant to the regulations concerning defence and security procurements §13-1, (1).
We are well aware of the difficult situation we all find ourselves in at the time of the cancellation and believe that by sorting this in an alternative manner will better be able to facilitate the wants and needs of industry due to the ongoing pandemic and the consequent effects to come.
We strongly regret that this process has been drawn out and the disadvantages this has caused, and at the same time thank you for the work you have put into the qualification phase.
If you have questions related to the cancellation, please contact Lena Bratsberg (908 20 182 / lena.bratsberg@forsvarsbygg.no).
