Technical requirements: The contracting authority and customer are: Attvin AS with subsidiaries, except Attvin Næring AS.
Ålesund municipality c/o Group Procurements is assisting the contracting authority with the implementation of the intention notice.

The contracting authority intends to enter into a contract with Scania for the delivery of four chassis, as well as signing a contract with Hydraulics and Welding Techniques AS (HST) for the work of moving/assembling the refuse collection additions, upgrades and preparation of the necessary documentation. 

The contracting authority purchases the chassis directly from Scania and delivered by Scania Ålesund. 

The contracting authority shall procure four new chassis (refuse collection vehicles), where the company shall reuse older refuse collection additions (aggregate) from 2013, delivered by NTM in Finland. The used sanitation additions currently stand on the older Scania chassis. There shall be 3 2-axled vehicles and a three-axled chassis. 

In order to use the refuse collection vehicles with aggregate must have an approved builder registration certificate and weight calculations to the Norwegian Public Roads Administration for approval of vehicles. Only HST and NTM can jointly do this for the existing additions. 

NTM is the supplier of the renovajon additions that the customer has and they only have one certified workshop in Norway, HST which is located in Drammen. HST as the only certified NTM workshop in Norway and must, thus, be able to move the additions to the new chassis. 

The customer has asked HST for the possibility of moving the refuse collection additions to the chassis from other suppliers. HST does not have experience with this and does not recommend moving the compactor to other chassis than they are built for, i.e. Scania. HST does not want to submit tenders for moving the additions to other brands than what the additions are built for, here Scania.

Other suppliers have a chassis with a different frame width and wheel width, cable mat and software than the customer has on the used additions. This prevents them from being connected together. 

As regards moving the addition to the new chassis, upgrades will also be made to the older additions, where all wearing parts and electrical switches, as well as hydraulic tubes are to be replaced. The addition will be sandblasted and painted. Weight and weight cells must be assembled. This must be done by HST in connection with moving the body. It is an NTM product.
As long as all the terms are met, with documentation etc., there are no criteria for the execution place. When the vehicles are ready, they shall be delivered to a customer who is located in Ålesund municipality.
Tenderers are asked, who may object to this intention, to provide feedback by the end of the waiting period, which is set to 15.11.2024. If objections are not received, contracts will be signed after the waiting period expires.
