Tenders Are Invited For Laser Printers Framework Agreement For Printer Systems Over Two Years

Laser Printers Framework Agreement For Printer Systems Over Two Years. The Procurement Project Includes The Tendering Of The Printer Environment For The Floor And Workplace Printers For 2 Years. The Existing Contract Expires On January 31, 2025. Limiting The Contract Term To 2 Years Was Deliberately Chosen For The Following Reasons: - Economical: The Kvbw Is Currently Working Very Intensively In The Business Areas On The Digitalization Of The Administration. The Changes Are Very Extensive And The Effects Will Be Noticeable In The Current Year 2024. The Transformation Process Is Proceeding At A High Intensity And It Is Currently Not Possible To Foresee What Printing Capacity Will Still Be Needed Within The Kvbw. From A Strategic And Economic Point Of View, It Is Currently Not Expedient To Enter Into A Contract Term > 2 Years, As The Requirements Cannot Yet Be Clearly Defined. From The Kvbws Perspective, At The End Of 2024 We Will Be Much Further Along In Being Able To Evaluate This And Also Set Up Appropriate Analyses. For This Reason, A Contract Term Of 2 Years Is Required As The Basis For An Economical And Future-Oriented Solution. - Technically: Currently, New Requirements For Printers Due To Organizational Changes And Changes To The It Infrastructure Due To Advancing Digitalization Are Not Yet Foreseeable. It Therefore Makes Sense To Reassess This In A Year And Include It In The Following Call For Proposals. If A Longer Contract Term Is Currently Chosen, Technically Relevant Functions Could Be Missing In The Future. - Organizational: In Order To Obtain The Best Possible Solution - Economically And Technically - Comprehensive Preparation Of A New Tender Is Necessary. It Is Expected To Take Around 1 Year Until The Contract Is Awarded, As A Fundamental Revision Of The Printer Concept Should Be Carried Out As Part Of The Tender. The Revision Of The Printer Concept Is Necessary In Order To Be Able To Work Economically Even In Times Of Hybrid Work. It Should Also Be Noted That Due To Implementation And Test Times, The Award Must Be Made Approximately 6 Months Before Implementation. In Addition To New Devices, Used Devices Should Also Be Permitted As Part Of The Tender Due To The Short Contract Period, As The Economic, Technical And Organizational Reasons Mentioned Are Not Restricted By This. Further Advantages Of Approving Used Devices Result From The Following Points: - Technically: Used Devices Meet All Of Our Requirements At The Current Time And For At Least Two More Years. There Are No Risks Associated With The Approval Of Used Devices, As The Same Service Level Agreements (Sla) With The Same Recovery Times Apply As For New Devices. - Economical; Due To Significantly Higher Product And Delivery Prices On The World Market Due To A Shortage Of Raw Materials And Goods, The Overall Costs Are Significantly Higher
