Purchase of 1 Ka-Band Wideband Global SATCOM Anchor Station (lot 1) and 1 X-Band Wideband Global SATCOM Anchor Station (lot 2) (the acquisition contracts) plus framework agreements regarding spare parts and service to the Wideband Global SATCOM Anchor Stations (the sustainment framework agreements)
In order to extend the current satellite communication system between the Danish Defence operational headquarters and the Royal Danish Navy, Army and Air force remote terminals to include the use of Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS), it is the intention of the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistic Organization (DALO) to purchase 1 new fixed Ka-band WGS Anchor Station (lot 1) and 1 new fixed X-band WGS Anchor Station (lot 2).
Each acquisition contract includes an initial spare parts package with the most common spare parts needed for a minimum of 2 years operation. It also includes relevant training courses on how to use and maintain the Anchor Station as well as all relevant operational and technical documentation. In addition the acquisition contract also includes supervisory assistance for installation and test of the Anchor Stations.
It is of paramount importance that DALO will be able to purchase relevant spare parts to the Anchor Stations as well as having the possibility to receive technical advice and repair assistance in case a technical problem cannot be solved by DALO. Therefore DALO will in connection with the 2 acquisition contracts enter into non-exclusive sustainment framework agreements for each Anchor Station (lot 1 and lot 2) in order to ensure sustained operation of the Anchor Stations for the next 7 years under which DALO can buy all relevant spare parts and receive technical advice and repair assistance as necessary. The sustainment framework agreements can be renewed on the same terms for 4 years up to 4 times. Renewal will take place if the introduction of new spare parts into an Anchor Station from other suppliers will entail severe difficulties in relation to WGS certification or there is no relevant market for spare parts to an Anchor Station at the time of renewal of the sustainment Framework agreement.
I.e. this notice covers 2 acquisition contracts regarding the 2 types of WGS Anchor Stations (X-band and Ka-band) each associated with a framework agreement regarding relevant spare parts and service for sustainment of the subject Anchor Station. The contract award criterion is joint for the acquisition contract and sustainment framework agreement. DALO will therefore award the two contracts to the same tenderer.
Thus, DALO intends to enter into two acquisition contracts with related sustainment framework agreement, one for the Ka-band WGS Anchor Station and one for the X-band WGS Anchor Station. However, it may be possible that the two acquisition contracts with sustainment framework agreements are awarded to the same supplier.
The WGS Anchor Stations will be installed on the Danish Defence satellite earth station at Airbase Karup.
The WGS Anchor Stations will be placed next to a number of existing large fixed Anchor Stations, which today are used by the Danish Defence for establishing broadband connections to Danish naval ships or Danish armed forces stationed abroad. Military transponder leases are used.
It will be a requirement in the contract, that the satellite Anchor Stations can be WGS certified by the U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command. The Supplier is responsible for the delivery of a fully WGS compliant satellite Anchor Station The certification process will be managed by DALO and conducted at the expense of DALO. However, it will be the responsibility of the Supplier to provide all requested information/documentation and participate in executing test cases to the extent required at the expense of the Supplier.
DALO expects the Anchor Stations to have an expected lifetime of minimum 20 years.
