About This Opportunity

Translated

This tender seeks to secure interim capacity for Strategic Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) Sea Transport. The procurement is driven by the need to fulfill safety obligations arising from the NATO Defence Planning Process (NDPP). The contracting authority requires long-term capacity with strategic partners for RoRo sea transport. This interim agreement will serve as a temporary solution while new RoRo vessels are under construction. RoRo transport is crucial for moving wheeled cargo, such as vehicles and equipment, efficiently. The NATO context highlights the strategic importance of this capability for defense logistics and readiness. The interim solution aims to bridge the gap until the new, dedicated RoRo vessels become operational, ensuring continuity of essential transport services that meet NATO standards and requirements.

This is a services contract in the transport and logistics sector, with a focus on Freight and Logistics. Located in Netherlands, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums, with an estimated budget of EUR 86.9 million.
