Acquisition of 1 Fire engine vehicle and 1 Water carrier vehicle.

A/S Storebælt is planning to purchase one fire engine vehicle and one water carrier vehicle.

Further information is available under section II.2.4.

A/S Storebælt is planning to purchase one fire engine vehicle and one water carrier vehicle.

The vehicles will be part of the emergency preparedness system on the road connection between Fyn and Zealand in Denmark.

The vehicles are to be used in emergency incidents on road. It is important to take into account the harsh salty and windy environment which the vehicles must be designed to cope with.

The vehicles must be equipped and registered for emergency response with blue lights and sirens in operation and for normal road use.

The vehicles must be supplied complete with fixtures such as pump and nozzles whilst loose items will be transferred from existing vehicles.

The vehicles must be CE-approved and delivered registered for use on the road as an emergency vehicle.

Each vehicle shall have a maximum total weight of 24,000 kg. The specific details of this requirement are set out in the tender material (the technical specifications).

A/S Storebælt has decided not to divide the contract into lots as this would unduly increase the cost and as the tender is limited to two similar types of vehicles.

Acquisition of 1 Fire engine vehicle and 1 Water carrier vehicle

A/S Storebælt has decided to terminate the tender procedure for the acquisition of one fire engine vehicle and one water carrier vehicle without an award of the contract.

The reason for the termination is that A/S Storebælt finds that there is not sufficient competition in relation to the tender. Thus, A/S Storebælt has only received one tender and the offered price was 43 pct. higher than what A/S Storebælt initially estimated the acquisition.

A/S Storebælt will evaluate its options and the possibility of a new tender procedure for the fire engine vehicles. If A/S Storebælt decides to commence a new tender procedure, A/S Storebælt will adjust the minimum levels of standards required regarding technical and professional ability with the purpose of attracting more candidates to the tender and to get a price closer to the estimate.
