2.1 Procedure

Title : Procurement of valves for use in full power installations for wastewater with the accompanying side obligations
Description : The Fjellhus - Breivoll area in the Alna district needs renovation of the water and sewage installations due to capacity problems. Due to bad falls between inlet and outlet, as well as a small dimension of the current waste water pipeline, the capacity of the wastewater network in the project area is very poor. To prevent sewage water from being washed out in the Alna River, the pipeline must be burned out. The choice of solution to achieve the desired effect has been closely assessed and consideration has been taken into account in the economy, environment, time consumption and operation of the plant. Systems that have been assessed include excavation, blocking out, stocking, controlled drilling, retention magazine with and without pumps. Due to the location (length, total fall, access to pipeline etc.), it has been assessed that as little excavations as possible are advantageous. The pipeline is located very deep in some places and there are quick clay in the area. This is a scary combination. Excavation free methods do not solve the problem of falls or exceed the contracting authority ́s budget. The requested full power installations will provide an optimal system for all of these points. The full power system requires that a special valve is used. This valve can only be delivered by Aiwell, who has a patent for the requested product (patent no. is 345582). It is necessary that the tenderer of the valve carries out testing and dimensioning that is covered by the side obligation.

2.1.4 General information

Additional information : Justification for the use of the exemption rule: The main rule is the publication obligation, cf. the Utilities Regulations § 17-2, cf. chapter 9. However, the Contracting Authority can execute a procurement without competition, cf. the Utilities Regulations § 9-3 (b) number 2 and 3, if the procurement concerns services that only a specific supplier can deliver because competition is impossible for technical reasons or the supplier has sole rights, including intellectual property rights. There are technical reasons and sole rights in this procurement that make it necessary to award the contract to a specific tenderer, cf. the above. The exemption provision only applies when there are no reasonable alternatives and the lack of competition is not due to the contracting authority adapting the procurement documents to a specific tenderer. There are not reasonable alternatives to a full power system, c.f. the above. The Agency for Water and Sewerage Works will, thus, note that we have previously conducted a competition, procurement 72/2023 - Engineering design services for wastewater installations. The competition was cancelled due to financial considerations as the market price for all of the tenderer ́s offered systems exceeded the contracting authority ́s budget. It is not sufficient that there is a legal exclusive right connected to the product or service, if there are also equivalent products/services in the market that can cover the contracting authority ́s needs, cf. the Court of Justice's case C-328/92 (Farmaindustria) premise 17. The Agency for Water and Sewerage Works is not aware of equivalent products/services in the market that can cover the contracting authority ́s needs. The Water and Sewage Department has not adapted the procurement documents to Aiwell, but needs a performance that we are only aware of Aiwell can deliver.
