Beschrijving van de aanbesteding
This tender procedure — reference number PRJ-2218 — is aimed at the installing of a last resort air traffic situation display at the Riekerpolder centre. In 2012 ATC-NL opened a contingency centre to be able to handle atleast 70 % of the traffic of Schiphol in a situation where its main centre at Schiphol-Oost is compromised. The contingency centre, situated at the Riekerpolder facility, is not equipped with the main flight and surveillance data processing system of ATC-NL, the so-called Advanced Amsterdam ATC (AAA) system, but with Phoenix.If Phoenix at the Riekerpolder fails, the last resort would be to use paper flight strips printed with yet another system. As the ATC-NL controllers work completely stripless for more than a decade, it is difficult to keep them sufficiently trained in using paper strips to build situational awareness. Furthermore it is expected that the traffic density and therefore the controller work load for handling traffic in the TMA will be very high even in a contingency situation, making the use of paper flight strips impractical. Therefore ATC-NL is considering installing a last resort air traffic situation display at the Riekerpolder centre.
Goal of this public procurement is to sign an Agreement with one supplier. The awarded Agreement will consist of Prototyping/Design, Implementation, Installation, Training of personnel, Maintenance and Support and Development of a Last Resort Air Traffic Situation Display. ATC-NL procures the LR-ASD from and obtains the ownership to the license(s) to use the Software as delivered with the LR-ASD under the terms set forth in the Agreement. The Agreement shall probably enter into force on 1.10.2017 and will have an initial duration of 10 years. The Agreement includes the option for 2 unilateral extensions of 5 years each by ATC-NL for a maximum of 10 years. The general purchase conditions with the title "ATC-NL General Procurement Terms and Conditions" dated 4.9.2013 shall in conjunction with the Agreement apply to the execution of the assignment.
Scope of Supply.
The scope of supply consists of prototyping and subsequent implementation of a last resort air traffic situation display (LR-ASD). The scope includes both deliverables and services. ATC-NL wishes to contract a party that is able to deliver a functional prototype based on system specifications and subsequently an operational Last Resort Air Traffic Situation (LR-ASD) display that meets SWAL 4 requirements.
Deliveries:
— Licenses: ATC-NL wants to have the licenses to use the Software LR-ASD within ATC-NL premises for an unlimited number of working positions. In first instance the software LR-ASD will be installed at the present contingency centre only. In the framework of the replacement of the main ATC-system at ATC-NL expected in 2022, it is considered to install the LR-ASD at the main operations centre too. The expected initial number of working position are as follows:
— 19 operational working positions at the Riekerpolder,
— 2 simulator working positions,
— test system, number currently unknown,
— System documentation.
Services:
— Development and configuration of a prototype system in a number of iterations,
— Development of an operational system based on the prototype,
— System Acceptance Tests,
— Support for initial installation,
— Maintenance Services of the operational system,
— Any further development of the system on demand,
— Training.
