6. Results

Direct award :
Justification for direct award : The contract can be provided only by a particular economic operator because of an absence of competition for technical reasons
Other justification : The University of Bergen, through the Department of Earth Science, intends to enter into a contract with K.U.M. Umwelt- und Meerestechnik Kiel GmbH for the additional delivery of seven ocean-bottom seismometer (OBS) units. The purpose of the additional deliveries is to improve and upgrade existing installations. It is critically important that the instruments have the same technical specifications, as any deviations may compromise scientific studies. A change of supplier would also force the contracting authority to procure goods with technical characteristics that would make operation and maintenance disproportionately difficult from a technical perspective. The legal basis for entering into the contract is therefore considered to be fulfilled.
