Summary

Machine-generated summary

The Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom invites tenders for the operation of public transport services by road. The specific routes and contract periods are set out in the annexes to the tender documents. The traffic is procured under a gross contract, a public service contract within the meaning of Regulation (EC) No 1370/2007 and the Act on Public Contracts in Special Sectors (1398/2016), in which the fare revenue risk lies with the contracting authority. Financing may be contributed, alongside Traficom as the contracting entity, by municipalities, cities, wellbeing services counties, educational institutions and competent authorities. The traffic covered by this procurement is granted exclusive rights under a separate administrative decision, and ticketing, payment and interoperability requirements are described in the tender documents.

Description

Liikenne- ja viestintävirasto Traficom (jäljempänä Traficom) pyytää tarjoustanne joukkoliikennepalveluiden hoitamisesta. Tarkemmat kohteet ja sopimuskaudet on nähtävissä tarjouspyynnön liitteissä. Liikenne hankitaan bruttosopimuksella. Bruttosopimuksella tarkoitetaan palvelusopimusasetuksen (1370 /2007) ja erityisalojen hankintalain (1398/2016) tarkoittamaa joukkoliikenteen palvelusopimusta, jossa lipputuloriski on liikenteen tilaajalla. Hankinnasta syntyvien sopimusten rahoitukseen voi osallistua hankintayksikkönä toimivan Traficomin lisäksi lisäksi kunnat, kaupungit, hyvinvointialueet, oppilaitokset sekä toimivaltaiset viranomaiset. Tämän hankinnan sisältämälle liikenteelle myönnetään palvelusopimusasetuksen mukainen yksinoikeus erillisellä hallinnollisella päätöksellä. Yksinoikeuspäätöksessä otetaan huomioon mahdollinen reitin osan läpi kulkeva pidempimatkainen liikenne. Lippu- ja maksujärjestelmävaatimukset sekä liikennepalvelulain (320/2017) edellyttämät yhteentoimivuusvaatimukset on kuvattu tarkemmin tarjouspyynnössä ja sen liitteissä.

Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €1,600,000
€1.6M to €1.6M

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 100% of their published estimate, half of them between 100% and 100%, based on 113 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.

What this market pays

The buyer has too few awards of its own in this sector, so this is the range of the last 802 awards for Transport services in Finland.
