CFF, Framework Agreement for geomatics services for the acquisition of point clouds
About This Opportunity
TranslatedChemins de fer fédéraux suisses (CFF) Infrastructure is seeking competent and reliable partners for the acquisition of high-precision point clouds. This tender initiates a framework agreement, commencing January 2025, to support CFF's adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM) for project planning from the preliminary design phase onwards. The acquired point clouds will serve as the foundational data for existing condition modeling in future projects. It is important to note that the existing condition modeling itself is not part of this procurement. The specific scope for point cloud acquisition will be defined by CFF for each individual order. Within the designated scope, the awarded service providers will be responsible for creating a coherent point cloud based on the geometric surveys conducted. The typical timeframe for the delivery of these point cloud datasets is expected to be approximately eight weeks following the assignment of each mandate. This initiative underscores CFF's commitment to leveraging advanced geomatics technologies for enhanced infrastructure planning and management.
This is a framework agreement contract in the architecture and engineering, information and communication technology and construction and civil works sectors, with a focus on Feasibility Studies, geospatial systems and Architectural Design. Located in Switzerland, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.
