Supplies · Open · European procedure
01What is being requested
Delivery of initially four commercial vehicles (diesel) for winter services and road pavers, with the possibility for future requirements within a period of four years.
The municipality will replace its fleet in the coming years. Currently, the municipality has twelve commercial vehicles (diesel). With this contract, four of these will already be replaced with commercial vehicles (diesel). The remaining ones may possibly be replaced by electric commercial vehicles in the coming years. However, should the municipality decide to replace a number with diesel commercial vehicles after all, the winning bidder will also receive the contract for that potential future requirement, provided the price is appropriate.
02Strategic insight
Ensure a strong vision and methodology to maximize the quality assessment. Prepare the practical test thoroughly as part of the award. Verify whether the technical reference exactly meets the requirements set for the delivery of diesel vehicles.
