The aim of the contract is to meet the Contracting Authority's need to a new crew vehicle, with good capacity and good performances as regards fire and rescue assignments. The vehicle must be delivered with a built-on chassis with the original double cabin, 4 x 4 and automatic gearbox.
An option is wanted for a further two (2) fire engines. The options must follow the same requirement specifications and price structure as for the procurement of the fire and rescue vehicle for Brattvåg. The Contracting Authority can choose to add or withdraw additional equipment and mobile equipment in accordance with the price sheet as required.

The Contracting Authority refers to PPR § 25-4 (1): “the Contracting Authority can cancel the competition with immediate effect if there is a justifiable reason”.
The Contracting Authority hereby cancels this competition as it is necessary to make significant changes in the tender documentation. Below we have listed some of the minimum requirements that will be changed in the next notice:
1) Refer to the tender documentation point 7.3.2, point B2: Central with circuit breaker and relays mounted at suitable locations, so that it doesn't take too much space in the extension/chassis. Everything must be assembled in one location, i a cupboard (classification IP55, stainless steel);
2) Refer to the tender documentation point 7.2.5, D2: “there must be 3 rolling doors on each side, and 2 top hinged hatches at the back”;
3) Refer to the tender documentation point 7.2.8, G1: “the pump must be mounted in a reducing manner”;
According to the Contracting Authority's assessment, the above named points are competition distortive. To safeguard competition and the equal treatment principle, we are cancelling the competition with it's current content.
In this tender documentation, the Contracting Authority has neglected to provide information about the budget limit for the purchase. We see that this is very unfortunately and will clarify the Framework Agreement for this procurement in the next competition.
