Technical requirements: A call for tenders for snow ploughing and clearing of municipal roads, foot and cycle lanes and places in Krødsherad municipality. The contract also includes the sanding and salting of municipal roads.
The procurement is estimated to be over the EEA threshold value. The estimated value is not binding for the contracting authority. The value of the contract is estimated to NOK 1 500 000 excluding VAT per year. The amount is an estimate and is not binding for the contracting authority.
The winter maintenance is divided into 6 plough lots and 1 sanding and salting lot. Tenders can be submitted for one, several, or all lots. Sub-tenders and alternative tenders cannot be submitted for an individual lot. Tenderers are encouraged to cooperate in preparing tenders if they are unable to handle an entire lot alone.
The contracting authority retains the right to divide the contract between multiple tenderers and to assume all or parts of a tender.
The contracting authority will sign a contract with 1 tenderer for each lot, provided that a sufficient number of qualified tenderers submit tenders to the contest.
The contracting authority expects that the tenderer is familiar with the contract provisions and makes the necessary internal clarifications in such a way that a contract can be signed if awarded.
As part of the simplification of public procurements, and based on experience from similar, former procurements where many tenderers have limited experience with submitting tenders, the contracting authority has chosen not to require ESPD to be included in this call for tenders.
The tenderer is asked to confirm that none of the grounds for rejection in the form's Part III are relevant to you as a tenderer (this applies to funding of terrorist organisation, child labour, corruption, and involvement in criminal activities).
