What the buyer is looking for
We would like to invite you to register for Citrix management services. The objective of this tender is to contract a supplier who can manage the existing Citrix hybrid platform of Utrecht University professionally remotely, advise on this and implement extensions or changes to the platform during the term of the agreement at our request. In fact, it is the intention that the (new) supplier takes over the "as-is" situation from our current supplier. We estimate the total costs at € 2.000.000,- excluding VAT over the maximum term of the agreement. Of this, € 50,000,- excluding VAT is reserved for the transition. The estimate is based on our current spending and a market analysis. You cannot derive any rights from this assessment.

This procedure allows 122 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 48 (median of 2,911 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.
