Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe State of Baden-Wuerttemberg is procuring biological monitoring services under the European Water Framework Directive (WFD) for flowing waters. The contractor will sample, identify, evaluate and assess macrozoobenthos to determine the ecological status of rivers, covering about 880 sampling sites, some to be surveyed twice, for roughly 1,120 investigations between 2027 and 2030. The work is divided into 6 lots, each split into four sub-areas: overview sites (2027 and 2030, identical sites both years), operational north (2028) and operational south (2029), giving 24 sub-areas over 4 years. Services include data processing, a reference collection for quality assurance, and two meetings per year with the LUBW in Karlsruhe.

Expected award price
- likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €424,000
- €309,520 to €445,200
Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 96% of their published estimate, half of them between 73% and 105%, based on 194 awards of the last 3 years.
Each award is compared with the estimate of the same lots, framework agreements excluded. A published estimate may include options and renewals, so an award under it is not always a discount.
