Beschreibung der Beschaffung
The supply of Neumayer Station III and Halley Station with goods for daily needs (provisions, fuel, spare parts) and scientific equipment is an essential part of the summer seasons to ensure the safe operation of the station during the winter months. A window of time between mid-December and mid-February is available for supplies, as this is the time when sea ice conditions are suitable for reaching the ice shelf edge.
All cargo will be taken on board the chartered vessel first in Bremerhaven (GER) and then in Felixstowe (UK) and transported directly to the two research stations with a refueling stop and pick-up of additional tank containers (and maybe staff) in Cape Town (ZA).
General requirements for the ship:
- At least ice class 1A
- Cabins for PAX (space for 5-8 PAX should be available on board, as BAS is planning to move PAX for the offloading to from Cape Town to Antarctica and back)
- Fuel pumping equipment for transferring fuel from tank containers to fuel storage shoreside
- Operations without using ice anchors
- Availability of fender
- Possibility to get enough flat racks for loading bulk cargo
- Vessel must be Polar Code fitted
General remarks on the charter:
- All port calls and costs associated with the port calls shall be arranged by and accounted for by Charterer.
- Loading and discharge to be made by Charterer vessel to pier only.
- The freight will be a mixture of containers and breakbulk, including active reefer container and tank container. The temperature stability (-20°C and +5°C – provision of Neumayer-Station III) has to be guaranteed. AWI provides a repair kit, repairs have to be conducted by the ship crew.
- Halley Station does not have machinery to unload containers so all containerised cargo must be able to be removed from containers by hand.
- Transportation of commercial freight should be possible to reduce the total charter costs.
- All shoreside unloading on shelf ice is carried out by the respective station personnel.
- All costs for stevedores and appointment of same for stowage on board, is the responsibility of the charterers.
- AWI will arrange for pre- and on-carriage.
Further informations will be given in the Specifications after the call for competition.

Objektive Kriterien für die Auswahl der begrenzten Anzahl von Bewerbern
The decisive criteria for assessing suitability are economic performance (economic and financial standing) and expertise (technical and professional ability). The above criteria will be evaluated on the basis of the documents to be submitted in accordance with Section III.1 of this notice.
The ratio of economic performance and expertise is 30% (economic performance) to 70% (expertise).
The information and evidence referred to in Section III.1.2 (WL1 and WL2) will be used to evaluate economic performance. A maximum of 300 points can be scored here. The information and evidence listed under Section III.1.3 (TL1 and TL2) are taken into account for the assessment of expertise. A maximum of 700 points can be achieved here.
With a total of 1,000 possible points, the individual items of information and evidence have the following value:
- WL1 and WL2: 300 points,
- TL1: 100 points,
- TL2: 600 points.
Economic performance and expertise will be evaluated in a relative comparison of applicants with each other based on the following scale/grade levels (weighting factor). The maximum achievable number of points per specification (WL1/WL2, TL1, TL2) is multiplied by the weighting factor achieved in each case. The scores thus determined are then added together.
- 100% = very good: Applicant meets the requirements with regard to the suitability criterion to the very highest degree,
- 80% = good: Applicant meets the requirements of the suitability criterion to the highest degree,
- 60% = fully satisfactory: applicant meets the requirements of the suitability criterion to a high degree,
- 40% = satisfactory: applicant satisfactorily fulfills the requirements with regard to the suitability criterion,
- 20% = sufficient: the applicant meets the requirements of the suitability criterion to a just sufficient degree.
In the range between 0% and 100%, intermediate grade levels can be formed (10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, 90%) to take into account a tendency towards the higher grade level in each case. An evaluation of a suitability criterion (economic performance or expertise) with 0% would correspond to a complete non-fulfillment of the respective suitability criterion, which would result in the exclusion of the participation application (knock-out criterion).
These are suitability criteria, not award criteria.
AWI reserves the right to obtain economic information about the applicant and to take this into account in the evaluation of economic performance. In this case, the economic information will be obtained from all applicants and taken into account in the evaluation.
Applications that do not achieve a minimum score of 50% of the total points (500 points in total) will be excluded and not considered for the negotiation procedure (knock-out criterion).
If several bidders achieve the same total score and the number of bidders exceeds the planned number of bidders to be invited to negotiate, AWI reserves the option to draw lots for the negotiation procedure among the remaining bidders with equal scores.
