What the buyer is looking for
Provision of high-speed connections based on dark fibre · Tenderers must enclose with their tender a plan for the planned route. Once the contract has been concluded and the required connections have been implemented, the tenderer must document the route in detail to the contracting authority. The successful tenderer is obliged to resubmit the planned route to the contracting authority before the start of implementation. If and to the extent that the client wishes a different route to avoid overlaps with existing data communication connections, the contractor is obliged to comply with this request. If this leads to increased costs for the contractor, these will be remunerated on the basis of the imputed basis of the tender for this invitation to tender, which will then be disclosed.
