The project supports companies' ability to identify, experiment with, and apply new technologies as part of their business, production, and product development. The Ditek project is administered by Mikkeli Development Company Miksei Oy in cooperation with South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences (Xamk). Mikkeli Development Company Miksei Oy is responsible for the tendering, contracts, and ordering of work package 2. Xamk participates in the project in an expert role in accordance with the project's objectives. Work package 2 focuses on concrete company-specific proto workshops and technology experiments.

The project receives public funding, and its implementation adheres to the conditions and guidelines set by the funder. This tender will establish a framework agreement based on which a maximum of three (3) service providers will be selected to carry out company-specific proto workshops and technology experiments under work package 2 of the Ditek project. 2. Description of the procured service: This is a fixed-price tender based on qualitative evaluation criteria. The subject of the procurement is expert services utilizing company-specific technology experiments (hereinafter proto workshops) for the development needs of industrial companies. The experiments can utilize AI-based and data-driven solutions as well as the company's existing data sources, such as data from ERP, production control, or CRM systems. The core of the service lies in rapid and limited experiments where the expert and the company collaborate to test selected technologies for practical business needs. Proto workshops can include, for example, software-based prototypes, demos, simulations, or other limited experiments. Objectives The objective of the procured service is to: • support the digital renewal and technology utilization of industrial companies • enable rapid and risk-controlled experimentation with new technologies • produce concrete prototypes or technology experiments for companies' development needs • create a basis for further development and potential research, development, and innovation projects • promote sustainable development principles, such as energy and material efficiency, as well as well-being and comfort at work Service Implementation The service will be implemented as company-specific assignments based on the framework agreement. The fixed budget allocated for each proto workshop is EUR 5,000 (VAT 0%) (incl. all costs related to organization for the service provider). A maximum of 12 proto workshops will be organized. The client will describe the content and objectives of each company-specific assignment. Service providers selected for the framework agreement will be invited on a case-by-case basis to submit a proposal for the implementation of a proto workshop, and the assignment will be carried out with the selected service provider according to an agreed schedule. The content, implementation method, and schedule of each assignment will be defined based on the company's development needs. The service provider must document the implemented proto workshop and provide a written description of the work performed and recommendations for further development. The client may also order the service from the tenderer ranked first in the framework agreement if that tenderer possesses the necessary expertise/experience.
