What the buyer is looking for
The subject of the tender is the airborne, thermographic investigation of a total of 11,209 overhead line kilometres at 110, 220 and 380 kV levels in the network area of TenneT TSO GmbH as well as the subsequent evaluation of the recordings and the handover of the results. The thermographic flights are carried out by aircraft (e.g. helicopter). In particular: - large line lengths are processed within short suitable weather and load windows, - a safe flight of 110-/220-/380 kV overhead lines is ensured while maintaining the required flight profiles, - sufficient range, flight time and operational flexibility for large-scale line sections are ensured, - the operation of the thermography systems are made possible, - short-term dispositions can be implemented depending on grid operation, weather conditions and current load. The service is provided in accordance with the tender documents, in…
Show full description
… particular in accordance with the "TenneT Thermography Directive". The services will be advertised for the 2027 and 2028 aerial periods. The tendered services will be divided into the following three lots: - Lot 1: 3,029 overhead line kilometres (line area: Bayern_Süd & Franken) - Lot 2: 3,918 overhead line kilometres (line area: Hessen & Niedersachsen_Ost) - Lot 3: 4,262 overhead line kilometres (line area: Niedersachsen_West & Schleswig-Holstein) Attention: The specified line/circuit lengths correspond to the stock in the respective lot. It would be desirable to thermograph the entire length. However, experience has shown that due to bad weather, lack of capacity or other grid situations, only a shorter cable length can actually be thermographed. The aim of the thermography measurements is to achieve at least 70 % of the line/circuit lengths. A rough overview is provided by the network map enclosed in the tender documents. Providers can apply for individual or (preferably) all lots. The maximum number of lots that can be awarded to a tenderer is limited to two lots. It should be noted that the contract for a lot can only be awarded if a complete team with equipment (staff, aircraft, measuring system) is available for the corresponding lot (i.e. two different teams for two lots). A package discount when awarding two lots is possible and welcome. The award is made from the point of view of overall economic efficiency. Confidentiality Declaration / NDA Access to tender documents is restricted. You will have access to the tender documents after the attached non-disclosure agreement has been signed. In order to protect the confidentiality of information provided by the contracting authority in the procurement documents, a non-disclosure agreement is to be concluded. To do this, use the document "Declaration of Secrets_NDA" provided for download and send the copy you signed via e-mail to [email protected] and [email protected]. Tenderers are allowed to send signed non-disclosure agreements to the contracting authority at any time during the application procedure. The contracting authority will grant the tenderer access to the tender documents after a plausibility check has been carried out. The tenderer cannot yet infer from this that the contracting authority attests that the tenderer is suitable to continue to participate in the tendering procedure. In this respect, the contracting authority will send separate invitations to tender to the tenderers admitted to the tendering procedure after the deadline for submitting requests to participate. ATTENTION! This is a multi-stage tender procedure. Tenders will not be sent until candidates have been selected in accordance with the predefined selection criteria in the competition.
