Description

Background and need OFA IKS plans a new framework agreement for IT hardware and the accompanying services on behalf of the municipalities, the county and other participating entities. The aim is to ensure efficient, predictable and cost efficient access to modern IT equipment throughout the entire agreement period. The current contract has an annual turnover of just under NOK 100 million. Based on previous procurements, the main distribution of the product mix is approx.: laptops (63%), monitors (6%), tablets (6%), Chromebooks (5%), desktop PCs and workstation (4%), laptop OSX (3%), large screens and TV (3%), laptop work station (3%), projectors and presentation (2%), keyboards and mice (2%), PC and tablet accessories (2%), as well as power, charging and UPS (1%), cables and adaptors (1%) and docking stations (1%). The Contracting Authority needs a contract that combines standardisation, flexibility and good cost control. Tenderers must be able to offer a broad assortment, efficient ordering systems and good support for reporting, statistics and contract follow-up. The agreement shall cover both larger standardised procurements and ongoing orders from different user groups. The agreement shall facilitate both the procurement and leasing of IT equipment, so that the contracting authorities can choose the solution that best covers their needs. For major procurements, e.g. school PCs, models will be assessed that ensure competitive prices and access to updated technology, including mini-competitions or other competitive mechanisms within the contract. The procurement will also include life cycle services such as preparing, rolling out, administration and management of client equipment. The objective of the market dialogue is to obtain the market ́s views on how the competition and the framework agreement ought to be designed to ensure good competition, suitable requirements, high security of delivery and the best possible goal achievement for the contracting authorities. We would greatly appreciate downloading the attached market dialogue document and answering the questions directly in the document. Participation and input are voluntary and not binding, and the contracting authority reserves the right to assess and possibly not use received input for the further design of the competition.
