Open House making testing capacity available
Dienst Testen (Contracting Authority) is seeking parties within an open procedure who can offer testing locations and capacity within the specified timeframe for citizens who require a COVID certificate. The choice of the testing location lies with the citizen; the contracting authority plays no role in the selection. The assignment primarily concerns the administration of antigen tests, the reading and processing of results within the established quality frameworks. The State reserves the right to adjust the type of test or the need for certain tests, or to partially terminate the agreement, depending on the unpredictable development of the coronavirus. Parties must therefore possess sufficient capacity, logistical capabilities, and a reliable IT infrastructure for processing test results.
