Purchase of transportation services to Station Nord, Greenland

Aarhus University, Department of Environmental Science

The Contracting Authority has contracted with a building company to be responsible for the construction of a number of buildings. Building materials will be pre-manufactured in Denmark by the building company and packed to be transported to Station Nord.
This contract involves the transportation of these buildings to Station Nord, Greenland.
Station Nord is situated in a very remote part of Greenland, and currently the only way of transporting cargo to Station Nord is by air. The nearest airstrips with a harbour serviced on a regular basis by commercial shipping companies are Thule Air Base, Greenland (76º32' N, 68º42' W) and Longyearbyen, Svalbard (78º15' N, 15º28' E). However, Thule Air Base is a US military airbase, and it is therefore not possible for commercial airline companies to use the airstrip at Thule Air Base.
It is accordingly considered most feasible by the Contracting Authority to transport the cargo (i) from the contractor in Denmark by truck to a harbour serviced by a commercial shipping company, (ii) by ship from this harbour to Longyearbyen, (iii) by truck from the harbour in Longyearbyen to the airport in Longyearbyen, and (iv) by air from Longyearbyen to Station Nord. Alternatively, transport could be by truck to Tromsø and from there by ship to Longyearbyen.
It will, however, be accepted that the transport assignment is carried out by other routes and means of transport as long as it can be documented, that the mean of transport applied will be feasible and will secure delivery on time.
The cargo to be transported has an estimated total volume of 800 m³ and an estimated total weight of 250 tons.
A list of items with dimensions (length x width x height), volume (m³) and weight (ton) is given in the tender documents.
Deviations from this list might occur as set out in the Contract.
Furthermore, the tender documents include (i) a description of the goods to be transported (ii) further information on the task tendered and (iii) the Contract that will govern the tasks to be carried out.
