18/01060 — Procurement of design / engineering design of a new coastal research vessel

The background for this procurement is that the government has decided to allocate money to the design and construction of a new coastal research vessel in the national budget for 2017/2018. This is part of the follow up of Havforsknings instituttets [the Norwegian Institute of Marine Research’s] report nº 17/2015 — Review of.

The Norwegian Institute of Marine Research’s future infrastructure need for the collection of marine data, where the need for a new coastal research vessel is highlighted as one of the needs.

The Norwegian Institute of Marine Research has received the task of initiating and implementing the procurement of a new coastal research vessel.

It has been decided that the procurement of a new coastal research vessel shall be divided into 2 procurements, 1 procurement for design (design contract) and 1 procurement for construction, equipping, testing and delivery of the vessel (Ship Building Contract). This procurement comprises only procurement of design / engineering design of a new coastal research vessel.

The Norwegian Institute of Marine Research shall procure the design / engineering design of a new coastal research vessel.

The objective of the procurement is to develop a design (initial design) for a new coastal research vessel in accordance with set requirements in the prepared functional requirement specification, cfr. Annex 1: Functional Requirement Specification.

“Initial design” means the vessel arrangement, dimensions, form, type and construction and which describes the vessel in sufficient detail that the shipyard can calculate the price and delivery time, and submit binding offers on construction, building, equipment, testing and delivery of a new coastal research vessel.

The construction documentation (design delivery), that shall be delivered by the tenderer to the shipyard under a separate contract, shall include all drawings and technical documentation that is necessary for construction, building, furnishing and equipment of a new coastal research vessel, refer to the attached tender documentation.

The prepared design as stated above will be part of the tender documents for the Notice of a competition for the procurement of a contract for building, equipping, testing and delivery of the vessel (Ship Building Contract).

The above given start and end dates are tentative dates for contract award notification and contract signing.
