Tildeling af en kontrakt uden forudgående offentliggørelse af en indkaldelse af bud i Den Europæiske Unions Tidende (begrundelse)
DTU has concluded a tender as an open procedure. After the time limit for receipt of tenders expired, DTU had received 2 tenders.
Only the tender from NSI-MI Technologies, LLC was technically capable with the existing equipment. This was expressed when the only other tender failed to meet the requirement put forth by DTU, which specified that “…It is a Minimum Requirement (…) that the following parts of the DTU-ESA Facility measurement system remain and that the deliverables thus interface to these:
A) anechoic chamber including metal screen, absorber lining, and access doors / gates;
B) access balcony, walk paths, personnel lifts, ceiling crane, instrumentation pit;
C) antenna positioner and probe positioner including motors, gears, and slip rings;
D) antenna positioner axes position encoders (Inductosyn encoders from Farrand);
E) control and integration room location of operator instrumentation;
F) processing software based on SNIFTD; DTU has valid license”.
The other company than NSI-MI who submitted a tender made reservations for this requirement, making DTU responsible for the interfacing between of the new equipment and the existing.
Since the interfacing between the new and existing equipment is essential for the continuation of the project, it is assessed that only NSI-MI Technologies, LLC can deliver equipment which interfaces correctly with the existing equipment.
