Belgium-Wilrijk: Feasibility study, advisory service, analysis
Subject matter of these services: preparation of a preliminary study, preliminary design and design of a waste-power plant.
Remarks: Isvag intends to build a new waste-power plant on the site on which the current plant is located. The new installation will eventually replace the current one.
The complexity of the contract and the high expectations regarding the choice and design of the project justify the division of the contract into a fixed and conditional part.
Given the nature of the contract, the qualifications and experience of the persons who make up the technical team and who will actually be entrusted with the contract may be decisive for the assessment of the economic value of the tender and therefore constitute one of the award criteria. In the context of the contract (provision of intellectual services), the technical team presented by the tenderer is an aspect substantially linked to the design of the contract and, in particular, to its qualification. Since the purpose of that assessment is not, in any way, to assess the abstract skills or suitability of the tenderer, but rather those of the tender, the human resources actually allocated to that performance will be included as an award criterion.
The execution of the contract depends on the searches to be carried out in the context of the site’s new-build project and BAT in the area of waste incineration. This includes an analysis of, inter alia, administrative, environmental, energy technical, spatial and financial and budgetary constraints, before different possible solutions can be proposed in order to be balanced against each other. The specifications are divided into three tranches, each divided into 2 stages. The first tranche (Stage 1 and 2) is a fixed band. The second (Phase 3 and 4) and the third (Phase 5 and 6) are conditional discs.
Preliminary studies:
The first (fixed disk) is the preliminary study and consists of Phase 1 and Phase 2. Phase 1 of the contract consists of understanding the context of the project and drawing up a list of obligations and solutions. Phase 2 includes defining the different possibilities for a new installation with the pros and contras in the light of the Phase 1 study. The options that are possible in the new installation should be examined. It shall be concluded with a comparative table and reasoned proposal to the Governing Council, including an outline draft estimate.
Preliminary design:
The second tranche (conditional disk) is the preliminary draft and consists of phases 3 and 4. Phase 3 includes the preparation of a responsible preliminary draft. The fourth phase involves consultation and integration of the preliminary draft into the architectural design.
Design:
Third disk (conditional disk) is the design and the layout of specifications consists of phases 5 and 6. The fifth phase includes a definition of the programme, the layout and development of the final design with layout plans.
Phase 6 concerns the preparation of the specific specifications for the execution of the work on the basis of the final design, the provisions of the selection and award criteria with a proposal of weighting and evaluation methodology.
Performance and performance of the contract depends on the tenderer’s proposals. This is an evolving element in which a decision will be taken by the contracting authority at various times after the termination of the first tranche (Phase 1 and Phase 2) and after the end of the second tranche (Phase 3 and 4).
Full performance of the contract is currently uncertain, taking into account the decision-making process of the client and cooperation with architects and public authorities, among others, and will be evaluated after the first tranche (Phase 1 and 2) and after the second tranche (Phase 3 and 4)
The final objective of the contract is to draw up the final draft plans for a waste power plant. Account will have to be taken, inter alia, of BAT, state of the art, environmental cross-compliance, energy, functionality, technical reliability, sustainability, spatial planting and architectural added value. The design to be drawn up must comply with all environmental, energy and spatial requirements and provide for the treatment of residual household waste and equivalent waste from all members of the isvag, ensuring safe, sustainable, performant and permanent treatment. The contract also includes, inter alia, drawing up the specifications with a view to awarding the contract for the actual implementation of the proposal which has been withheld, proposing selection and award criteria, and the way in which the contract is to be procured.
The contract as described in this specification is closed for the whole contract (band 1, 2 and 3), but is bound only for fixed parts, in particular band 1. The execution of each conditional part is subject to a decision of the Board of Governors of isvag and is communicated to the designer in accordance with the procedures laid down in the specifications (Article 37 (1) of the Public Procurement Act): in other words, the assignment has been phased in. This means that the tenderer may claim only the performance of the first instalment (preliminary study). Implementation of the second (preliminary draft) and third tranche (design and guidance) depends on the decision of the Governing Council. If the conditional part cannot be carried out or can only be carried out in part, it shall not give rise to any right on the part of the tenderer to compensation for damage or loss of income.
Summary:
— band 1 (fixed band); preliminary studies:
• phase 1: knowledge of the context of the project (technical, environment, spatial, environmental, financial, etc.) and the establishment of a list of administrative, technical, financial, environmental and budgetary constraints, problems and solutions;
• phase 2: definition of the different possibilities for a new installation with each of the pros and contras in the light of the Phase 1 study. A preliminary study should examine, on the basis of the preconditions laid down in this specification, the different options that are possible for the new installation. On the basis of these options, the contractor will, in agreement with the Client, select the best option whereby this option will include a detailed proposal including outline and estimation in a report in order to allow the Governing Council to take an informed decision on the proposed concept;
* evaluation and Governing Council decision on concept:
— disc 2 (conditional disk): preliminary design:
• phase 3: drawing up preliminary draft estimates, including estimates;
• phase 4: drawing up, in consultation with an architect to be designated, a design including estimation integrating the technical and architectural elements;
* decision of the Governing Council isvag:
— disc 3 (conditional disk): design:
• phase 5: layout of the final draft with layout of the plans and estimate, taking into account previous findings;
• phase 6: drawing up the specific specifications (s) for carrying out the work on the basis of the final draft.
