Forsvarsministeriets Materiel- og Indkøbsstyrelse

Armoured patrol vehicle (APV) system:
This contract notice concerns DALO's award of framework agreements for the procurement of an 4 x 4 Armoured Patrol Vehicle (APV) system.
The APV system shall consist of different configurations of the APV that are based on the same basic vehicle platform.
The APVs will function in a full-spectrum operational environment from war to humanitarian missions with multiple and diverse threats presenting themselves. This demands that the APVs are flexible, highly mobile and agile in the terrain.
In addition to the APVs, the framework agreements will cover initial spare parts and documentation as well as sustainment services, training and additional spare parts for the APVs procured.
Configurations:
The supplier shall offer the APV system in the following configurations (text in brackets are functional descriptions):
— ‘Patrol’ (Command and Control (2C), Liaison, Patrol Employment. 4-5 persons);
— ‘Electronic Warfare’ (collect military intelligence from enemy communication systems through monitoring and processing their networks in order to support the Danish Contingent (DANCON) and external partners. 4-5 persons);
— ‘Support’ (Line Logistic Equipment transport. 2-3 persons);
— ‘RECCE Open’ (the vehicle will primarily act in the role of a scout vehicle, covering Light Reconnaissance. Conduct protective security and escort support during advance and withdrawal as well dismounted as mounted. Surveillance. 5-6 persons. Armaments, as in weapons, are expected to be the same as on the PATROL configuration, e.g. heavy machine gun on top);
— ‘RECCE Closed’ (Light Reconnaissance. Conduct protective security and escort support during advance and withdrawal as well dismounted as mounted. Surveillance. 5-6 persons).
Protection.
The APVs in the configurations Patrol, Electronic Warfare, RECCE Closed and Support shall have Level 4a/4b mine protection according to STANAG 4569, AEP 55 vol. 2 edition 2 (or any later edition) when mission ready, and Level 3 Ballistic protection according to STANAG 4569 AEP 55 vol. 1 edition 2 (or any later edition) when mission ready.
The RECCE Open configuration shall have minimum Level 2a/2b mine protection according to STANAG 4569, AEP 55 vol. 2 edition 2 (or any later edition) when mission ready, and Level 2 Ballistic protection according to STANAG 4569 AEP 55 vol. 1 edition 2 (or any later edition), meaning that the chassis (underbody) shall be designed like and provide the same protection as the RECCE Closed configuration. Covered areas including ballistic windows (windshield) and the side of the vehicle shall provide the same protection as corresponding areas on the RECCE Closed configuration.
Please note that certificates issued by a third party institute documenting the protection level required for the Patrol configuration shall be presented to DALO no later than at the deadline for submission of Best And Final Offers (which is currently scheduled for March 2017). With regards to the other configurations such certificates shall be presented to DALO at the time of delivery, which — if these configurations are purchased — will be November 2018 at the earliest.
The certification must be approved by a National Authority. The National Authority shall be a government appointed expert from a NATO or PFP country. DALO is willing to act as a National Authority to facilitate evaluation of the certification. If certification has not already taken place, and, if DALO will not be acting as the National Authority, DALO would like to be present during the certification process as an observer. Please also note that it will be viewed positively in the evaluation of offers, if the APV has been subject to an overmatch test.
Tactical transportation by air:
The APVs (all configurations) shall be certifiable for transport by C-130J. For an APV to be certified for transport by C-130J it shall not weigh more than 5 896 kg on each axel and be located between load station 537-882 in the airplane. Furthermore the size of the APV shall not exceed the following dimensions: overall length: 8 630 mm, overall height: 2 667 mm, overall width: 2 921 mm.
Engine:
The main engine shall as minimum fulfil EURO III emissions norm.
Environmental aspects etc:
The APVs shall be fully operable in climate zones intermediate (A3), mild cold (C0), intermediate cold (C1) according to AECTP-230.
Furthermore, the APVs shall comply with requirements related to occupational safety and environmental aspects.
Furnished equipment:
Prior to delivery of APVs, the supplier shall install a variety of equipment that is furnished by DALO. This equipment could, for instance, include remote controlled weapon stations, battle management systems, radio equipment, etc. The type of equipment will depend on the configuration in question.
Development potential:
Also — since the APV is expected to be in use for at least 15 years — development potential in terms of payload (minimum 200 kg + mission configuration), power supply and integration of future technologies are considered essential.
Contract structure:
Procurement will be based on two agreements/contracts. Thus, DALO will award 1) a framework agreement concerning the acquisition of the APVs, initial spare parts and documentation (the ‘Acquisition Contract’) and 2) a framework agreement concerning certain services and additional spare parts related to the APVs (the ‘Sustainment Contract’). The Acquisition Contract and Sustainment Contract are to be seen as a whole and will be awarded to the same supplier.
System responsibility:
The supplier shall have a full system responsibility. The exact terms and conditions for the supplier's system responsibility will be described in detail in the contracts.
Procurement schedule:
As stated in section II.1.4) above, DALO expects to make an initial purchase of up to 36 APVs with expected delivery in 2018 as a supplement of the existing fleet for the Danish Army. The initial purchase is expected to be of APVs in the PATROL configuration, but DALO may decide that some of the APVs shall be in another configuration. During the duration of the Acquisition Contract, DALO retains the right to order additional APVs (in different configurations within the APV system).

Procedure
Rammeaftalens varighed i år: 15
Begrundelse for rammeaftaler med en varighed på mere end fire år:

As described in section II.1.5) below, DALO will award 1) a framework agreement concerning the acquisition of the vehicles, initial spare parts and documentation (the ‘Acquisition Contract’) and 2) a framework agreement concerning certain services and additional spare parts related to the vehicles (the ‘Sustainment Contract’).

The length of the Acquisition Contract will not exceed 7 years.

With regards to the Sustainment Contract, this framework agreement will have a duration of 15 years with a possibility for renewal twice, each for an additional 5 years (15 + 5 + 5). DALO has determined that such a duration is justified based on the following grounds in particular:

The APVs are expected to have a life span of approximately 15 years (and potentially even longer). DALO therefore has a need for sustainment that exceeds 7 years.

Due to the numbers of APVs to be delivered — as well as the expected development costs associated with the requirements concerning the level of APV protection — both the Acquisition Contract and the Sustainment Contract represents a very large investment for the supplier. This creates the need for a longer write-off period than usual which also motivates a contract period exceeding 7 years.

Furthermore, a great deal of knowledge and experience will be gathered throughout the contract period, in particular in relation to continued developments concerning the APV. The need to minimize the technical and logistical difficulties that a change of supplier will result in also supports the need for a contract period longer than 7 years.

In addition, only spare parts for the APVs that are deemed by DALO to be critical for the use of the APVs in terms of weapon-, road- and personnel/material safety will be included in the full duration of the Sustainment Contract. All other spare parts will only be included in the Sustainment Contract for a period of 7 years after which they will be procured via a new tender procedure.

Påtænkt antal ansøgere: 5
Objektive kriterier for udvælgelse:

The limitation of candidates will be based on an evaluation of which candidates have documented the most relevant previous deliveries in comparison to the contracts/purchases described in section II.1.5) above, in terms of the nature and quantity of the previous deliveries. Please note that any ambiguities and/or incomprehensibilities in the information submitted under section III.2.3) may be regarded negativity in the evaluation when selecting the limited number of candidates.

When submitting contact details, candidates are encouraged to submit as much information as possible and preferably also the e-mail address of the candidate's contact person. Non-compliance with formal requirements: DALO reserves the right — but is not obliged — to use the remedies provided for in Section 12 of the Danish statutory order on procedures for the award of public supply contracts, public service contracts and public construction contracts (Order no 712 of 15.6.2011) if applications or tenders do not fulfil the formalities of the tender material.

Subsequent short listing of the pre-qualified candidates/tenderers:

After the pre-qualified candidates (the tenderers) have submitted their first indicative offer (INDO1), the number of tenderers is expected be reduced to 3 based on the award criteria applicable at the time. These tenderers will be invited to negotiation meetings and to submit their vehicle to testing.

Testing:

The shortlisted candidates will be required submit their vehicle to a series of tests. The test period is scheduled from September 2016 to the end of November 2016. The tests vary from terrain mobility and agility to technical analysis and evaluation of the vehicle structure/construction. The test will be conducted on one vehicle from each candidate throughout the whole test period. The tests will take place primarily at the Army Combat and Fire Support Centre in Oksbøl.

Additional information:

DALO has previously published a contract notice regarding Armoured Patrol Vehicles (2015/S 198-359312). This procedure was discontinued on the 30th November 2015 and a new procedure has now been started with the publication of this contract notice.

As described in section II.1.4) DALO has awarded 1) a framework agreement concerning the acquisition of the vehicles, initial spare parts and documentation (the ‘Acquisition Contract’) and 2) a framework agreement concerning certain services and additional spare parts related to the vehicles (the ‘Sustainment Contract’). The length of the Acquisition Contract will not exceed 7 years. With regards to the Sustainment Contract, this framework agreement will have a duration of 15 years with a possibility for renewal twice, each for an additional 5 years (15 + 5 + 5). DALO has determined that such a duration is justified based on the following grounds in particular: The APVs are expected to have a life span of approximately 15 years (and potentially even longer). DALO therefore has a need for sustainment that exceeds 7 years. Due to the numbers of APVs to be delivered — as well as the expected development costs associated with the requirements concerning the level of APV protection — both the Acquisition Contract and the Sustainment Contract represents a very large investment for the supplier. This creates the need for a longer write-off period than usual which also motivates a contract period exceeding 7 years. Furthermore, a great deal of knowledge and experience will be gathered throughout the contract period, in particular in relation to continued developments concerning the APV. The need to minimize the technical and logistical difficulties that a change of supplier will result in also supports the need for a contract period longer than 7 years. In addition, only spare parts for the APVs that are deemed by DALO to be critical for the use of the APVs in terms of weapon-, road- and personnel/material safety will be included in the full duration of the Sustainment Contract. All other spare parts will only be included in the Sustainment Contract for a period of 7 years after which they will be procured via a new tender procedure. The contracts were signed 15.06.2017.
