Technical requirements: Akershus University Hospital Trust would like to enter into a framework agreement for the procurement of medically certified monitors for theatres in Akershus University Hospital and other hospitals connected to the health trust.
Akershus University Hospital Trust (Ahus) plans to replace several monitors in the theatres at Ahus and other hospitals connected to the health trust, and would therefore like to enter into a framework agreement for the procurement of medically certified monitors.
At the time of this notice, Ahus has calculated that 34 monitors will be replaced. Further monitors in other departments are expected to be replaced, but the scope is unclear. How many monitors will be procured in the contract period will depend on allocation of funds in the budget and price per monitor as stated in the winning tender.
NOK 1.6 million has been set aside for the procurement of ceiling mounted monitors for the Day Surgery Centre (DKS) and the central operation (SOP) at Ahus. The amount includes costs for adaptations and drawing cables. Money is expected to be put aside for the procurement of further monitors, both for the theatres at Ahus and for other hospitals during the duration of the framework agreement. The total number of monitors that will be procured will depend on the budget, and Ahus is not bound to a minimum amount/volume or the stated upper value of the framework agreement.
The contracting authority must have the option to extend the framework agreement for a further 1 year + 1 year, altogether a maximum of 4 years.
The contracting authority would like an option for arms for the monitors that are fixed from the side in the LAF ceiling. The arms must have an equivalent function and fixing mechanism as the current arms, as seen in the pictures from the theatre with a LAF ceiling in Part 1 Annex D Illustration Picture. The option for arms must be valid for 2 years calculated from the date the contract is signed.
The contracting authority would also like an option for assistance with drawing cables to the theatres. The cables that are to be drawn will be electricity cables and signal cables for the different monitors. If the contracting authority chooses to take up.
The options are not absolute minimum requirements, and will not be subject to evaluation. The options will be taken up if the contracting authority deems it appropriate.
