Framework agreement for the collection and analysis of road data.

Summary

Nye Veier shall be a challenger on how we operate and maintain our roads. In order to rethink and be able to challenge the current methodology, it is central to gain better knowledge about the road installations we operate by regularly mapping the condition of defined road objects, and then condition development on them. In this way, forecasts can be prepared for future condition development and plan the necessary maintenance, as well as reinvestment or renewal. Nye Veier AS would therefore like to enter into a contract with a tenderer who can collect defined road data from our stretches (mobile mapping) and deliver the required result data and raw data for our internal project and operations systems. Several of the requirements are expected to be in the limit for, or outside of what the current market can deliver. The contract therefore also includes the development of new technology to solve the requirements as described above. Nye Veier's assessment is that it is unlikely that all of the contract ́s ought-requirements (both in categories B and C) can be delivered at the time of the contract signing. We are therefore planning to fund the development of the named services for up to NOK 200,000 excluding VAT. NOK 500,000 per annum during the contract period. This is to be done by the contracting authority and the tenderer in cooperation agreeing on which services shall be developed for the individual contract year. Emphasis is put on the fact that grants for development are not a commitment for the contracting authority and it will not be to be considered as a purely basis for the work performed, but may be used to stimulate the further development of the services that are provided.
