26-072511 Systèmes de Foerder

The scope of the contract is described as one lot (LOT-0000) “Foerderanlagen”, covering installation of 1 freight lift (Lastenaufzug), 1 passenger lift (Personenaufzug) and 1 passenger/freight platform lift (Personen-/Lastenhubbühne) including extensive ancillary works such as shaft equipment, platform doors, control systems, provisional construction-time operation, vibration measurements, safety training (TRBS 3121), documentation and commissioning. Such as: specific LV positions for the person/freight lift (3500 kg, 46 persons, 4 stops) and for the hub platform (1200 kg, 2 stops, defined platform size), as well as scaffolding and cable tray work. Place of performance is Erlangen, postcode 91058 (NUTS DE252). Time-wise, the contract runs from 08.02.2027 to 02.11.2029, with binding individual contractual milestones under the Besondere Vertragsbedingungen (214.H): start of carrier installation 01.04.2027, start of lift installation 13.09.2027, provisional lift operation for site use from 13.12.2027, and start of platform lift installation 15.01.2029. Bidders must submit a bar-chart construction schedule (Bauzeitenplan) showing activities, dates and interim deadlines; the binding contract deadlines derive from that plan plus the specified dates.

Award criteria and weighting are straightforward. Such as: the procurement documentation and TED notice explicitly state that price is the sole award criterion. The “Gewichtung der Zuschlagskriterien” form 227.H is referenced but in this procedure not used for multiple criteria; instead, the Aufforderung zur Angebotsabgabe confirms that Zuschlagskriterium is only “Preis” and that the price is determined from the recalculated offer sum including any unconditional discounts, effects of a possible Lohngleitklausel, and the maintenance contract prices. There is a reference to “Unterlagen zu den Zuschlagskriterien” regarding a “Beschleunigungsregelung” (binding end of construction and submission of a schedule), but this appears to be a generic text in Form 216; for this tender, the TED notice clarifies that the sole criterion is price, so time-related information serves only as contract obligation, not as weighted award factor.

Risks and special conditions are set out mainly in the participation conditions (212EU) and the Besondere Vertragsbedingungen (214.H). Such as: there are contractual penalties (Vertragsstrafen) under § 11 VOB/B, with daily penalties for delay in contractual milestones and in completion, capped at a percentage of the net contract sum (exact figures to be taken from the completed contract form) and with cumulative penalties for multiple delayed milestones being offset against the overall penalty cap. Financial security is required: the TED notice specifies a performance security of 5% of the gross contract amount (if the net sum is at least 250,000 EUR) and a defect liability security of 2% of the sum of progress payments at acceptance; 214.H contains generic wording that security might be waived but is then concretised in the TED notice, which prevails for this tender. Subcontracting and Eignungsleihe are allowed but must be declared via forms 233 and 235; other companies providing capacity must issue a Verpflichtungserklärung (236) including joint liability. A bidding consortium must issue a joint declaration with joint and several liability, an appointed representative, and the form 234. The bid must be submitted electronically via https://www.meinauftrag.rib.de by 01.12.2026, 09:00, in German, using the prescribed forms with proper (advanced or qualified) signatures where required; the bid must remain binding for 60 days, until 30.01.2027. Questions on the tender must be submitted by 25.11.2026, 09:00. There is no dynamic purchasing system, no framework agreement, no site visit obligation mentioned, and no reserved execution in protected employment programmes.

Regarding contradictions or corrections, a few points stand out and the applicable statement can be inferred from the hierarchy of documents (TED notice and specific tender conditions overriding generic form texts). Such as: Form 216 contains generic text about “Unterlagen zu den Zuschlagskriterien” and a “Beschleunigungsregelung” where the construction end date could be used as a scored criterion; the TED notice, however, clearly defines that price alone is the award criterion, so time is not scored but purely contractual. Similarly, 214.H has template clauses saying that performance and defect securities are “waived” or “to be determined by percentage”; the TED notice then fixes the percentages at 5% for performance and 2% for defects, so those specific percentages are applicable. Another apparent tension is that 211 EU allows both electronic and written submission options, while the TED notice states “Elektronische Einreichung: Erforderlich”; therefore, for this procedure only electronic submission via the RIB platform is permitted. Lastly, Form 216 and the TED notice both list qualification documents; the consistent rule is: Form 124 (or EEE) must be submitted with the offer as self-declaration; the detailed certificates (turnover proofs, reference certificates, registrations, tax/social clearance, BG certificates, etc.) will be requested afterwards under § 16a EU VOB/A for bidders in closer consideration, and must then be provided within the set deadline by both the main bidder and any named subcontractors or capacity providers.
