Tilleggsinformasjon

The procurement is cancelled in accordance with the Public Procurement Regulations § 25-4 (1). The tender documentation point 1.2 states that the Embassy announced the tender competition in order to establish a contract for technical assistance to the Rural Energy Agency (REA) in connection with implementation and follow-up of ‘Rural Electrification Densification Program 2A’ (REDP 2A). REDP aims to electrify villages in Tanzania. According to point 1.2.4. ‘Assignment Scope’, the assistance in the implementation phase primarily concerns supervision of contractors and their work, as well as assisting REA in connection with receiving and certification of materials and payments. Some assistance was to be carried out after completion of construction (follow-up), but this was a secondary service. REA has now informed the Embassy that the construction, which should be monitored by the technical consultant, is well under way, and will according to the schedule be completed early in 2022. According to REA there is no longer a need for the technical assistance that was being procured in this contest. On this basis, there is justifiable reason to cancel the contest, cf. the Public Procurement Regulations § 25-4 (1).
