K-AK-WF-2025-0003

The district of Altenkirchen is currently being expanded by a self-economic expansion of network operators, partly with broadband networks and bandwidths of up to 1 Gbit/s. The self-economic expansion is not comprehensive and there are gaps in supply afterwards. The Landkreis Altenkirchen performs the task of providing broadband coverage for the entire district, with the exception of the Alt-Verbandsgemeinde Betzdorf, and intends to close parts of these gaps and to implement the construction and operation of an FTTH network within the service area that is the subject of these proceedings, including the provision of retail services on the basis of a service concession in the economic gap model pursuant to point 3.1 of the Gigabit Directive 2.0. The expansion is to be implemented in a total of 3 lots with the help of funding from the federal government, the state of Rhineland-Palatinate and the municipalities in connection with the respective grant decisions. The basis for this is in particular the guideline "Promotion to support the gigabit expansion of telecommunications networks in the Federal Republic of Germany" - Gigabit guideline of the Federal Government 2.0 (Gigabit guideline 2.0) - of 31.03.2023 in the version of 13.01.2025 as well as the framework regulation of the Federal Republic of Germany to support the nationwide deployment of gigabit networks of 01.08.2024. The funding decisions of the federal and state governments have already been submitted to the client. The tenderer is obliged to acknowledge the content of all grant notices and to comply with the requirements resulting from the grant notices and to pass them on to his subcontractors. Subcontractors are obliged to continue to oblige their subcontractors accordingly. The grant notices are attached to the procurement documents. The services are to be carried out in conjunction with any self-economic expansion already undertaken in the area in order to exploit synergies. The planned completion date is December 2028, which must be taken into account by the bidders when calculating the bid. On this basis, the tenderer may also indicate a different date in the procurement documents, which is only binding if an extension can be achieved vis-à-vis the grantor. The aim is to achieve a uniform date in all lots. By this date at the latest, market-standard broadband services should be available throughout the relevant project area. Own networks, if any, are to be introduced and used by the future concessionaire for the planning and construction of the network, as well as existing public infrastructure or power supplies to be rented from third parties (where economically feasible). The concessionaire assumes the following rights and obligations: (1) Establishment of the corresponding broadband infrastructure (2) Installation of the active components (3) Commissioning of the gigabit network (4) Operation of the gigabit network over the duration of the purpose limitation (5) Provision of corresponding services and offers (telephony, Internet, value-added services such as IP TV, as well as wholesale products on an open access basis) to end customers and interested third-party providers at market and/or normative conditions. The benefits must be completed in each lot no later than six months before the end of the approval period specified in the respective grant notice/amendment notice. For the rest, see procurement documents. Text automatically translated in your browsing language Automatically translated
