5.1.10 Award criteria

Criterion :
Type : Price
Name : Price
Description : The total price is calculated from the price form.
Weight (percentage, exact) : 70
Criterion :
Type : Quality
Name : Quality
Description : We will assess both operative and strategic cooperation. This procurement uses the exclusionary provision in PPR § 7-9 (4), since it is clear that the climate and environmental requirements in the procurement have a better climate and environmental effect than the use of the award criteria. The framework agreement will include supplementary procurements of network components and licences/software either within the already established Cisco Enterprise Agreement, or outside. As this is a supplementary procurement, it has been given which software and licences shall be purchased, the products/licences themselves will potentially not have different climate and environmental impacts - therefore a competition will not have the potential to reduce the climate and environmental impact of products and licences. They also consist of climate gas emissions and resource use connected to the production of the physical units and energy use from data use in the development of the software licences. The framework agreement also involves transport to Statsbygg ́s headquarters from the local supplier, and the requirement thereof is set to be 100% emission free, which is the best one can achieve. In total there is no potential for further reductions in climate and environmental impact by the use of award criteria in this procurement. Statsbygg ́s assessment is therefore that in order to reduce the climate and environmental impact of this procurement, the exclusion provision in the Public Procurement Regulations § 7-9 (4), as it is clear that the use of climate and environmental requirements has a better climate and environmental effect than the use of the award criterion as described in PPR § 7-9 (2). The Directorate of Public Construction and Property is therefore exempted from the obligations to emphasise the environment or to prioritise the environment among the three highest prioritised award criteria.
