Dynamic Purchase System — Maintenance and Support of a Firewall System from CheckPoint
18/7503
The Contracting Authority would like to establish a Dynamic Purchase System through this notice in accordance with the PPR §§26-4 to 26-7.
The aim of the Dynamic Purchase System is to meet the need for maintenance of and support for our firewall system from CheckPoint, which in November 2018, consists of:
— a physical firewall, which is in each individual municipality (total 8),
— a 2 node central cluster that deals with internet traffic,
— a 2 node central VSX cluster with 7 bodies that deal with various internal zones.
A central firewall that deals with home office connections and access for external consultants.
Attention is drawn to the fact that the portfolio can change during the system's lifetime.
The Contracting Authority envisages holding a competition between qualified tenderers once a year, and that the signed contracts will normally have a duration of 12 months.
The Dynamic Purchase System will start as soon as possible after the qualification round has been completed, if there are three (3) or more tenderers who are admitted to the system.
The deadline for submitting a qualification application to be invited to the first procurement is set to 3.12.2018, 13.00. All communication must be electronic and applications are to be sent via Tendsign. The first competition is expected to be held during week 49 or 50. Competitions will then be held as required.
All tenderers can submit a qualification application during the entire contract period, and qualified tenderers will be continually admitted.
The Dynamic Purchase System will run indefinitely.
