Germany – Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services – Bauaußenstelle ELT Region Potsdam-Golm

The Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science (MPG) is a non-profit research organisation predominantly funded by public means. It currently operates and maintains 84 institutes and other research facilities of varying size, structure, and remit across Germany, primarily dedicated to basic research in the natural and human sciences. The subject of the contract to be awarded is engineering services in the field of ELT technology for technical external offices of the General Administration of the Max Planck Society. The contract will be concluded as a framework agreement pursuant to § 21 VgV. The subject of the tendering procedure comprises the engineering services in the field of ELT technology to be provided as a so-called "Technical External Office" within the framework of the ongoing maintenance, upkeep, and repair of the technical building services and systems in accordance with the draft contract provided. The contractual services are based on §§ 53 – 56 HOAI. The Technical External Office supports the Max Planck Society in the maintenance of its buildings. The maintenance is carried out in accordance with the Max Planck Society's guidelines for building maintenance. In addition, the contracting authority intends to award planning services for construction measures to the contractor during the term of the framework agreement. The services are usually performed during ongoing operations. When providing the services, not only the special requirements of the highly installed buildings and the corresponding technical systems, but also the work processes customary in research and science must be taken into account. In this respect, the Max Planck Society attaches importance in this tendering procedure not only to the fact that the bidders can demonstrate profound knowledge in the field of science and research, but also to having experience in the implementation of maintenance and repair measures during ongoing operations. The services to be provided must at least comply with the generally recognised rules of the art and meet all the necessary requirements of economy, energy efficiency, and sustainability. By submitting a tender, the bidders declare that they are able to provide the services within the specified period and, in particular, that they have the necessary specialist, personnel, material, and time resources for this purpose. The special requirements for the provision of services may make it necessary to be available for coordination meetings on site or in Munich at short notice and frequently at the request of the contracting authority. This lot comprises the following MPIs: GRAV (Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics), KOLL (Max Planck Institute for Colloid and Interface Science), MOPF (Max Planck Institute for Molecular Plant Physiology). By submitting a tender, the bidders declare that they are able to provide the services within the period specified below and that they have the necessary specialist, personnel, and material resources for this purpose. The remuneration is made by a lump-sum fee. Contract start: 01.01.2027. The list of the associated estimated and maximum fees can be found in Annex 01 of the tender documents.
