Framework agreement for snow clearing services

Description TED originale

Grimstad municipality shall enter into a framework agreement with several tenderers for winter maintenance; snow ploughing, gritting and clearing snow and ice on municipal roads and open spaces, as well as setting out snow stakes. The framework agreement is divided into three parallel sub-contracts divided in accordance with machine types: tractors, small wheel loaders (4-8 tons) and large wheel loaders (8-16 tons). This notice concerns snow clearing areas of roads, as well as clearing areas for municipal purpose-built buildings. Tenderers shall not submit tender offers on specific routes, it is the contracting authority who will award the routes after the tender deadline has expired. The expected tenderers will have route maps distributed in a reasonable time before the snow clearing season. As the areas are dynamic and changes can occur, the routes will be divided according to a total assessment of the following criteria: the machine ́s suitability, efficient operations planning and cost-benefit connected to geographical location and costs of moving around. The contracting authority always aims to divide the sections so that they generate approx. as many hours. Changes must be expected in the routes, but will be agreed further per season. Tenderers must reckon on clearing areas within the entire municipality. During the agreement period there will be a need for occasional snow clearing in accordance with the contracting authority ́s needs. Tenderers must therefore reckon on extra assignments beyond the routes. A previous route overview and a map of roads and institutions are attached together with the tender documentation (Annexes 1, 2 and 3). These are outdated and new areas are under revision. Tenderers must expect changes to the extent of individual routes. See Annex 1 Requirement Specifications for further information on the procurement.
