5.1.10 Award criteria

Criterion :
Type : Cost
Name : Price
Description : Weighting: The award criteria is weighted 70%. Orientation: In the cost calculation, the tenderer shall fill in the attached price form and submit it as an annex to the tender in Excel format. All fields in the attached price form marked with yellow shall be completed. Missing the price fields can cause difficulties in assessing the tender and the tender can then be rejected. All prices are in NOK, excluding VAT, including all direct or indirect expenses and duties that could be incurred in connection with the delivery. Order fees and invoice fees are to be seen as expenses. The prices shall include all costs for the customer who is included in this competition. Costs that the tenderer knows will be incurred, but that are not specifically stated in the tender, will be seen as included in the stated costs. Definition of cost price: If the supplier manufactures the item himself, the cost price is what it costs to produce the item. Then costs such as the purchase of raw materials and costs that apply to the production itself, such as electricity, labour and so on, will be included in the cost price. If the item is purchased externally, then it is the tenderer's purchase price plus freight etc. (in to the supplier), minus any discounts/bonuses, which make up the item's cost price. Can also be referred to as intake food. Cost price shall be collected from the following date: Wednesday 30 April NB! Tenderers are not allowed to offer goods with a negative mark-up percentage in the competition. The offered crackdown shall be equal or smaller throughout the entire contract period.
Weight (percentage, exact) : 70
Criterion :
Type : Quality
Name : Quality
Description : Weighting: The award criteria is weighted 30%. Orientation: Tenderers shall fill in the annex "Requirement Specifications" for the lot(s) for which they submit a tender. Evaluation: This award criteria will be assessed based on the tenderer ́s description of the award criteria. A total procurement assessment of the described system will be carried out during the evaluation.
Weight (percentage, exact) : 30
Criterion :
Type : Quality
Name : Environment
Description : The contracting authority uses the exclusion provisions in PPR § 7-9 fourth paragraph, and has replaced the award criteria in accordance with the second link with climate and environmental requirements in the requirement specification. It is considered clear that this gives a better climate and environmental effect, and this is justified below. The procurement of network, server and storage equipment is mainly aimed at ensuring stable, secure and future orientated infrastructure for municipal services. IT equipment has a significant environmental impact through material use, production processes, energy consumption and handling at the end of its lifetime. However, the industry is characterised by rapid technological developments, making it more appropriate to set specific environmental requirements in the requirement specifications rather than using climate and environment as the award criterion. The market for network, server and storage equipment is dominated by major international actors who already have comprehensive sustainability strategies. The requirement specification ensures that tenderers must fulfil the following environmental requirements: Environmental management system: Tenderers shall document that they have implemented an environmental management system certified in accordance with ISO 14001 or equivalent. Reporting environmental footprint: Tenderers shall regularly report environmental footprints for delivered products, including energy consumption and climate gas emissions. Choice of materials and recyclability: The products shall as far as possible be made from recyclable materials, designed for easy disassembly and recycling. Environmental labelling of IT equipment: Products that are delivered shall be environmentally labelled, for example with the Swan Ecolabel, EU Ecolabel (Blomsten), The Blue Angel or equivalent. Energy efficiency: The products shall fulfil energy efficiency standards such as Energy-star or equivalent for energy efficient operation, where relevant. By setting these requirements as absolute in the requirement specifications, it is ensured that all tenderers fulfil high standards for climate and environmental considerations. This gives a more direct and predictable environmental gain compared to using climate and environment as an award criteria with emphasis in the evaluation. The contracting authority estimates that these measures will have a clearly better environmental effect than weighting the climate and environment with 30% in the evaluation, as all the offered products must meet the requirements independent of price and point calculations. At the same time, the requirements reflect market practice, where most serious actors already work systematically on environmental measures.
