Germany – Special-purpose road passenger-transport services – Rahmenvertrag für Omnibus-Fahraufträge bei Großveranstaltungen innerhalb Deutschlands

A framework agreement is being tendered for bus transportation services for the currently three DAAD scholarship holder meetings per year within Germany. The meetings take place at a university location in Germany (=venue). The number may vary depending on the funding of the DAAD by its grantors and is determined annually by the DAAD. The meetings serve to deepen the DAAD's contacts with its scholarship holders, but also to network among the funded individuals. In addition, we offer participants the opportunity to listen to scientific lectures or to give a lecture themselves. A cultural framework program and a joint closing evening round off the program. The format of the scholarship holder meetings, the venues and dates are determined by the DAAD. The current format provides that the events always begin on the respective Friday afternoon with the arrival of the participants and end on Sunday after breakfast. For support, approximately 50 employees of the DAAD travel and usually participate in the entire program. The participants are usually accommodated in four to five hotels at the respective venue. The participants are brought by the bus company in groups from their individual university locations to the venue. The pick-up locations and the respective venue are usually within a radius of no more than 500 km. The determination of the pick-up locations with the number of persons to be transported is made by the DAAD. On-site, the participants are transported from the hotels to the university and to further locations in the vicinity (up to max. 50 km distance) of the university location according to the program. The detailed description of services can be found in Annex 02 of the tender documents.
