Netherlands – Geotechnical engineering services – DAS Geotechnische Onderzoeken en Adviesdiensten

This procedure is conducted in accordance with articles 2.48 to 2.50 of the AW 2012. The contracting authority intends to establish the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to award further orders for Geotechnical Investigations and Advisory Services for its activities with an estimated order value greater than € 50,000, excl. VAT. Further orders below this threshold can be awarded by the contracting authority outside the DPS, in accordance with its procurement and tendering policy. For this DPS, over the total maximum duration (12 years), a maximum contract value of € 6,500,000, excl. VAT, is assumed, multiplied by an uncertainty factor of 1.5 = € 9,750,000, (excl. VAT). *Uncertainty factor: the contracting authority chooses an uncertainty factor of 1.5 in addition to the estimate of the order. The contracting authority considers this factor justified in view of the current economic conditions, the duration of the DPS and the possible Flood Protection Projects (HWBP).
