Voluntary prior transparency for negotiated procedure without prior publication regarding Housing Allocation System (2)
About This Opportunity
TranslatedThis notice concerns a voluntary transparency publication regarding the municipality's intention to procure a housing allocation system through a single-bid negotiated procedure without prior publication. This is a rectificatory publication, as the initial announcement (reference 7a9a99fb-2d6d-457a-8a8d-adf5d7323977 - 01) on the Mercell procurement platform did not allow access to the explanatory document regarding the invocation of Article 2.32 of the Public Procurement Act (Aw). The municipality has corrected this and is re-publishing its intention, which remains substantively the same.
The municipality intends to award a contract via a single-bid, non-competitive procedure. The justification for this approach is based on Article 2.32, paragraph 1, sub b, point 2 of the Dutch Public Procurement Act 2012, which allows for such a procedure when competition is absent due to technical reasons, meaning the contract can only be performed by a specific contractor. Before proceeding with the negotiated procedure, the municipality wishes to offer market parties one final opportunity to express interest. This is being done through voluntary transparency, in accordance with the procedure outlined in Articles 4.16 and 4.15 of the Aw. The aim is to allow potential suppliers who can offer a system with equivalent functionalities, without incurring excessive transition costs, to come forward. A detailed explanatory document is attached to this publication.
This is a services contract in the information and communication technology and urban development and housing sectors, with a focus on e-government solutions and Enterprise Systems. Located in Netherlands, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums, with an estimated budget of EUR 3.4 million.

Description
Auto-translated from DutchNew voluntary transparency publication. As a result of an issue on the Mercell procurement platform, it was not possible to view the document with further explanation of the appeal to Art. 2.32 of the Public Procurement Act (Aw) in the publication with reference number 7a9a99fb-2d6d-457a-8a8d-adf5d7323977 - 01. This document should be visible. The municipality has therefore corrected that publication and is publishing its intention again. This intention is substantively the same as the aforementioned publication. Substantive description: The municipality intends to purchase via a single-source negotiated procedure. The municipality invokes Article 2.32(1)(b)(2) of the Public Procurement Act 2012: 'the public contract can only be performed by one specific contractor because competition is lacking for technical reasons'. Before the municipality proceeds with the negotiated procedure, it wishes to give market parties one more chance - through voluntary transparency in accordance with the procedure resulting from Article 4.16 in conjunction with Article 4.15 Aw - to come forward if they can unexpectedly still supply a system with equivalent functionalities, without incurring (too) high transition costs. A document with a detailed explanation is attached to this publication.
