Radio, Television, Communication, Telecommunication And Related Equipment – ​​Partial Technical Renovation Of The Camera Robotics In Studio E At The Mainz Location. Südwestrundfunk (Swr) Broadcasts Its Daily News Program Swr Aktuell Rheinland-Pfalz From Studio E In Mainz. A Rail Camera Robotics System From The Manufacturer Ross Is Installed There. Some Parts Of This System Are Now End Of Life And As A Result Support Is Only Possible To A Limited Extent. In Order To Ensure An Operationally Safe Condition, The Corresponding Components Must Be Replaced. This Replacement Must Be Carried Out During Ongoing Operations, As Moving To An Interim Studio Would Be Too Time-Consuming. Thanks To The Camera Robotics System, Südwestrundfunk (Swr) Has The Opportunity To Carry Out Different Camera Positions And Tracking Shots For The News Broadcast Without Having To Use Extra Staff. The Positions Are Stored In The Robotics Control System And Are Accessed Via Automation (Mosart). This Way Of Working Has Proven Itself And Must Be Retained. For Economic Reasons, Only Those Components That Are End Of Life Are Replaced And All Other Components Must Be Preserved. The Aim Of The Procurement Process Is To Conclude A Contract With A Contractor To Carry Out The Delivery, Installation, Configuration And Commissioning Of The Technical Renovation Of Studio E With Camera Robotics From The Manufacturer Ross On The Premises Of The Swr In Mainz. It Is Essential To The Contract For The Client That The Contractor, With The Services For Integrating Components To Be Delivered And Provided By The Client, Establishes The Specified And Agreed Functionality Of All System Parts And Takes All The Necessary Steps For This.
