Justification for a framework agreement which exceeds a duration of 7 years: Option b) regards a framework agreement for spares and support of the TMA radar systems. If utilized the framework agreement will be entered for 7 years initially. If necessary the framework agreement can be consecutively extended for periods of 4 years for as long as the TMA radar system is in use by the Danish Defence. The extensions following the initial 7 year period will only be entered if this can be done according to the provisions of directive 2009/81/EC or other relevant legislation in force at the time the decision regarding entering the extension is made. The option of having a framework exceeding a 7 year period is justified in strict technical impracticability for a candidate other than the chosen economic operator to achieve the goals required. Change of supplier will jeopardize the fulfilment of safety requirements related to the operation of the TMA radar systems.
