Title : 20240058 Supplies and services to a network central security infrastructure
Description : The contracting authority currently uses several systems in a combination to ensure network central security, including machine and software systems. These include systems in the following categories: • Firewall systems from Check Point including associated administration systems • Identity management systems from Check Point • Sandbox systems from Check Point • Remote access systems from Check Point • Systems for access control and load balancing from F5 • Proxy systems from F5 • Systems for web application firewall from F5 The procurement includes supplies and services associated with these categories. The contracting authority has decided to divide the procurement into two sub-areas, hereafter called sub area CP and sub area F5. Lot CP includes supplies and services connected to the categories in the first four bullet points, whilst sub-area F5 includes supplies and services associated with the categories in the last three bullet points. One framework agreement and one maintenance contract shall be signed per sub area, total four contracts. The two agreements included in sub-area CP apply to specified services that the contracting authority requires for maintenance, management, capacity and functional expansion of the Check Point based part of the contracting authority ́s at any given time applicable network central security infrastructure. The equivalent applies to the framework agreement and maintenance agreement included in sub-area F5, but then for the F5 based part of the contracting authority ́s at any given time applicable network central security infrastructure. The framework agreement and the maintenance agreement covered by sub-area CP shall be signed with one and the same legal subject. Likewise, the framework agreement and maintenance agreement covered by sub-area F5 shall be signed with a single legal subject. There is an opportunity to compete for one or both sub areas. The values in the notice only apply to the two framework agreements included in the procurement, cf. the sub-procurement. 1.2 in the tender documentation's main document. Access to parts of the tender documentation requires a declaration of acceptance of confidentiality, cf. the sub-company. 1.5 in the tender documentation's main document.
