Intention notice vehicle barriers

CPV codes

Description

Technical or professionally unique product STAUT is an innovation product, which was developed through a separate project managed by Statsbygg, as an alternative in connection with. the establishment of the perimeter security in the new government block. STAUT was developed based on a requirement specification prepared by The Directorate of Public Construction and Property with input from DSS, where previous experience related to service and maintenance of vehicle barriers was emphasised together with the desired resistance/robustness of the driveways. STAUT is developed as a user friendly plug and play system, where the customer shall easily be able to lift up a defect/non functioning bollard and put down a new one in a reasonable time (a couple of hours). This ensures security/perimeter security, as improvements (replacement of bollards) can be carried out quickly by the customer and thus contribute to reducing the downtime at the entry/exit point against other products, where the customer is dependent on ordering a supplier beforehand. The plug and play system, where the entire product is easily replaced for a new/functioning one, is not something we are aware of other suppliers offering as of today. Exclusive intellectual property rights Ulmatec has sole rights to STAUT, including the software, the patent/copyright, as they are the ones who developed this bollard. This means that there are no other suppliers who can deliver this bollard or service and maintenance on it. Compatibility with existing systems Replacing STAUT with a different type of bollard will incur major reconstruction costs. As a result of other types of bollards not being able to use the board cabinets for STAUT, a new board cabinet must be established if other bollards are to be inserted than STAUT. The perimeter protection is currently divided into outer and inner perimeters, where the different entry/exit points function as separate environments. All bollards must be identical/of the same manufacturer for each environment, either YP or IP. A bollard consists of 2 or 3 bollards and these are controlled as one unit, from the stern bollard provider's control cabinet. One will not be able to control an IP or YP where there are different bollards, as the different suppliers will have different board cabinets for control of their products. In addition, it will visually look unspoilt/messy if an IP or YP should consist of different types of bollards. This means that if one is to put down a different type of bollard than STAUT, all bollards (varies between 3- 8 bollards depending on the IP/YP) in the IP or YP, including the control cabinet, must be replaced. There will, therefore, be considerable costs if STAUT is to be replaced with a different type of bollard. Disproportionately high costs in exchange The perimeter security around the new government block, where the majority of the bollards are of the type STAUT, has just been established. It has cost many millions of kroner to establish this, and it will require major investments both in relation to integrations or replacement of equipment if another type of bollard is already to be acquired. Complexity and special adaptation It is currently only Ulmatec who has the knowledge and competence to be able to service and maintain STAUT. As this is an innovation product, efforts are still being made to make the product function optimally, and there will continue to be a need going forward to deal with Ulmatec to ensure that the product function properly, get access to spare parts including extra bollards that replace broken bollards. As well as the necessary training being given to those who shall administer and operate the bollards. Operational continuity The perimeter security around the government block shall regulate traffic into the ministry buildings. There is and will be a lot of traffic in the area around the government quarter and into the various ministry buildings, where traffic has to go through the perimeter security. This applies to both vehicles to neighbours, who have landed within the outer perimetum and vehicles that shall be within the inner perimeter/into the ministry buildings. The new government block has just been opened and the perimeter security is being used. It will be very unfortunate (reputation, costs, traffic flow) if another supplier was to be given who delivers another product, and thus had to temporarily close all entry/exit points in turn in order to have other bollards switched. A change of supplier can cause delays and interruptions in the operation of the government block.
