6. Results

Value of all contracts awarded in this notice : 199 900 Euro
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 : A SPNEG procedure with the current ROV contractor, as per the provisions of Point 11.1 (b) (ii) Annex I to FR – "competition is absent for technical reasons", has been deemed the most appropriate course of action to complement the existing FWC for ROV services for the MMO 2025 due to: • For the photogrammetry, the respective sensor needs to be paired with the technology/ capabilities provided by the EMSA contractor, whereby this extra sensor is to be added to the specific ROVs falling in the scope of the FWC contract and utilised during the operation to conduct other activities in the context of MMO 2025. Opening the market may lead to technical incompatibilities which would potentially impact success of the operation. • For the magnetometer survey, as all services are foreseen to be undertaken together as part of the same use case, the capacities to be proposed for this particular equipment need to be corroborated with the ones already used as part of the current FWC because of the technicalities of the sonar and the support vessel. • A change of contractor cannot be made for technical reasons linked to interoperability. Due to its technical knowledge necessary to integrate and operate the new capabilities within the existing capacity, the ACSM operational team that will be deployed will have to pilot the OC-ROV for photogrammetry, operate the larger ROV fitted with the magnetometer, conduct the sonar surveys, perform the search and recovery of the mannequin, locate the lost anchors and search for telecom cables, coordinating the execution of the overall operations.
