Supplies · European procedure
01What is being requested
Delivery of a managed solution for access to locations and telecom cabinets, consisting of electronic locks, keys and a (SaaS) software solution for management. The scope includes, among other things, 550 mechanical cylinders, 600 telecom cabinets, 300 key safes and 20 padlocks for use in outdoor conditions for 25 years.
We need a managed solution for access to our remote locations and Telecom cabinets. These locations need battery-free electronic locks, where the ‘key’ should deliver the power for the lock, as the lock cannot always be powered externally. Keys will be handed out to personnel on their name, so there is traceability of who was where and when. The questions included in this Market consultation are intended solely to obtain insight into market capabilities, common practices, and potential solution directions. The information provided by suppliers will be used for exploratory and preparatory purp
02Strategic insight
<ul Focus on the technical feasibility of battery-free electronic locks that receive energy via the key. Ensure a detailed description of the software-based key management functionalities, including real-time management and access periods. Emphasize security and compliance (such as NIS2, ISO 27001 and GDPR) as this is explicitly requested. Provide an indicative price quote for both one-off and recurring costs for budgetary purposes.
