Framework agreement for the supply of double-deck buses

Summary

The tender concerns framework agreements for the supply of double-deck buses. The contracting authority plans four frameworks: a single-supplier and a multi-supplier framework for double-deck battery-electric two-axle buses, a single-supplier framework for double-deck battery-electric three-axle buses, and a single-supplier framework for double-deck regional buses. Up to 1,500 two-axle battery-electric buses, up to 200 three-axle battery-electric buses and up to 100 regional buses may be purchased under the frameworks. The authority may order fewer or more buses and may decide not to place call-off orders under one or more framework lots. The initial term of each framework agreement is 30 months, with a possible extension of up to 66 additional months at the authority’s discretion.
