Voluntary transparency in advance: loose grandstands and stage components
Sportbedrijf Rotterdam B.V. has issued a tender for the supply of loose stage decks for grandstands in the swimming pool area of Zwemcentrum Rotterdam. The unique situation requires a gently sloping floor upon which traditional grandstands on wheels cannot be safely placed. Therefore, the new stage decks must be maneuverable, safe, and suitable for a sloping surface. The procurement is conducted under a negotiated procedure without publication. Suppliers must demonstrate that their product complies with safety standards, has sufficient load-bearing capacity, is easy to assemble and disassemble, and is suitable for the specific swimming pool environment. The focus is on quality, safety, and logistical feasibility.

Sportbedrijf Rotterdam organizes many sporting events. For these sporting events, grandstands are set up for the duration of the event. This also applies to events in the swimming pool area of Zwemcentrum Rotterdam. The swimming pool area is a challenging environment for grandstand builders. This is because the floor in the swimming pool area slopes, meaning work can only be carried out using loose stage decks. Previously, grandstands were used, but for safety reasons, it is absolutely no longer an option to place grandstands on wheels on this surface.
02Exclusion grounds
