2.1 Procedure

Title : The Future Business System
Description : BIR and ReIT are in the midst of a comprehensive digital transformation to strengthen control in the entire value chain - from customer management to resource utilisation and waste management. A central step in this process is the procurement of a new business system that shall replace the current system, ISY Proaktiv, which has been in use for many years. ISY Proaktiv has had several CRM-like functions for the sanitation industry, but several of the system's functions and data processing processes are now considered more appropriate to handle in a combination of a modern data platform and other systems. In addition, the market for industry specific solutions has been dominated by few actors, which has led to limited innovation and development over time. Bir and ReIT would like to use this procurement to explore a broader spectrum of systems and open up to more suppliers than those who have traditionally delivered to the industry. Although sanitation has some distinctive needs - such as integration with the national land register - we see that many of the core processes can be handled by standardised CRM and ERP systems. To test this, we will carry out a Proof of Concept (PoC) where tenderers are given the opportunity to demonstrate how existing off-the-shelf systems can support our processes and requirements. Our assumption is that customer follow-up and general servicing are already a part of these systems and that we can adapt our processes to a standardised system. Although this first step focuses on replacing the current customer system, the procurement is a part of a major strategic commitment. The aim is to build a uniform, data driven business model where modern technology lays the foundation for a more efficient and innovative operation.

Type of procedure : Competitive dialogue
Justification for the accelerated procedure :
Main features of the procedure : The procurement will be carried out as a competitive dialogue. The first phase is called the qualification phase, which will end in a maximum of three qualified candidates being invited to participate in the dialogue. See B2 - Qualification Phase for qualification requirements, criteria for qualitative selection and other information on this phase. As explained in B3 - The tender and dialogue phase, the candidates will work with the Contracting Authority and their consultants to identify the solution or systems that can meet the Contracting Authority's requirements and clarify what the tenderers can offer in technical, economic and legal solutions. The candidates will be compensated for their participation as regulated in B3 - the tender and dialogue phase. When the dialogue has concluded, the candidates will be invited to submit a final tender.

5.1.10 Award criteria

Criterion :
Type : Cost
Name : Total Project Costs
Description : The contract will be awarded the tender with the best relationship between price and quality. The weight intervals are now broad and will be narrowed when the final tender documentation is presented when the dialogue phase has been set out in the early stages of the dialogue. The same applies for further guidance on what will be assessed in accordance with the criteria, which will also be subject to discussion in the dialogue. The reason is that the technical specifications, contract terms etc. have not been determined. Based on the customer ́s assessment, the use of intervals and the possibility to add more details or sub-criteria represent the necessary flexibility. More precise criteria can be counterproductive in achieving the goals for the dialogue. If there are any objections or questions regarding the legality of this approach, they should be communicated to the customer as soon as possible.
