The contracting authority will give each tenderer a score between 0-10. For the cost award criteria, the lowest offered total price will give the highest number of points, and the remaining tenders will be given points relatively based on the lowest sum. The points per supplier will then be multiplied by the award criteria weighting, which results in the final score per supplier for the award criteria.
When evaluating the award criteria quality, the contracting authority uses an evaluation model where all the tenders are given a score on a scale from 0-10 for each of the assessment requirements. A judgemental assessment will be made of the best response, which is based on the offered solution proposal against the content of each requirement. The points per provider will then be summed up and converted to a score between 0-10 points, with the highest total score awarded 10 points and the remaining score based on the distance from the best total sum. The tenderer ́s points will then be multiplied by the criterion ́s stated relative weight, which makes up the tenderer ́s score under this award criteria.
Karensfristen er 10 dager fra dagen etter meddelelse om tildeling er sendt leverandørene.
The Contracting Authority needs a framework agreement for the purchase of network equipment, firewall, fixing equipment, accompanying cables, as well as consultants for error recovery and configuration. The agreement also includes the procurement of licences for the accompanying equipment if the contracting authority needs to procure it during the contract period, both EA licences for those using this, and individual licences and service agreements. The contracting authority ́s participants in the procurement have different ways of handling licences for network equipment. Some of the participants have an EA-agreement with Cisco and therefore do not procure a licence with the equipment. Other participants purchase both equipment and licences simultaneously. The competition is being held as network equipment is priced without a licence, and some selected accompanying licences and service agreements will be priced separately. The contracting authority can, during the contract period, wish to procure a network as a service for individual locations. This shall not be included in this agreement. See the tender documentation for further details.
The stated address is Sandnes kommune's main address. See the SSA-K Annex for the main address of all participants in the competition.
The agreement period is 2 years from when the contract is signed, with an option for an extension for 1+1 year. The options will be automatically taken up unless the contract is terminated in writing by the contracting authority 3 months before the contract expires.

Winner: Randaberg kommune
