Technical requirements: The objective of this tender is to ensure that DALO for the next 7 years will be able to provide compact handheld Laser Range Finders (further called LRF). LRF are to be used mainly by the individual soldiers as part of their personal equipment, both in real combat situations, as well as training, across all Danish Defence branches and in varying environmental and weather conditions across the globe.
The LRF are to be used along with the soldiers' and unit's other equipment, such as weaponry and sensors. The LRF is to be primarily used with a focus on momentary range measurement prior to engaging the target with the dismounted infantry squad’s handheld weaponry such as a 7,62 mm light machine gun, as well as relevant target identification using the distance data.
The agreement concerning Laser Range Finders is Lot No. 2 under the tender Acquisition of Binoculars and Laser Range Finders. Lot No. 1 concerning Handheld Binoculars and handheld binoculars with LRF has been terminated earlier without an award.
For Lot No. 2: Laser Range Finders — which this announcement concerns, DALO has not received any conditional offers, and DALO hereby ends the tender procedure without an award and proceeds to a tender with negotiated procedure without the publication of a Contract Notice in accordance with the Defence and Security Directive Article 28, Section 1, Litra (b). DALO invites all tenders who have made an offer in the former tender procedure. DALO will not be making any substantial changes to the tender material but will be maintaining the requirements in their original form.
