Work Detail

Research And Experimental Development Services – Pre-Commercial Procurement Of Innovative Personal Protective Equipment For First Responders (Active Pcp). The Pre-Commercial Procurement Of Innovative Personal Protective Equipment For First Responders (Active Pcp) Project Addresses Critical Gaps In Personal Protective Equipment (Ppe). It Responds To The Need To Keep First Responders Safe And Operationally Effective During Evolving Threats, From Cbrn Incidents And Hazmat Situations To Terrorism, Industrial Accidents, Natural Disasters, And Other Complex Emergencies. Active Pcp Involves Public Safety Buyers And End-Users In Defining Unmet Needs And Guiding Industry R&D Towards Solutions. Active Pcp Procures R&D Services Through Pre-Commercial Procurement (Pcp). // Tenderers Are Invited To Propose Innovative Ppe Solutions For First Responders, Police, Firefighters, And Emergency Medical Services Operating In Complex Cbrn And Hazmat Environments. Following The Phased Pcp Model, The Procurement Supports R&D Up To The Development Of A Limited Volume Of First Products. It Comprises 3 Competitive Phases, With Fewer Tenderers Progressing At Each Stage So That Those Offering The Strongest Response To The Pcps Technical Challenge Are Selected. // The Pcp Will Be Implemented By Means Of A Framework Agreement (Fa) With Call-Offs For Specific Contracts For Each Of The 3 R&D Phases (Altogether ‘Contracts’). Greek Law Governs The Contracts. The Gdpr Processing Agreement – If Applicable – Will Be Governed By The Law Of The Member State In Which Each Pilot Will Take Place During Phase 3. The Fa Will Remain Binding For The Duration Of All Phases For Which Contractors Remain In The Pcp. There Will Be No Renegotiations. // Kemea Will Be The Lead Procurer Throughout All The Phases Of Active Pcp. // Tenderers That Are Awarded A Fa Will Also Be Awarded A Specific Contract For Phase 1 (Evaluation Of Tenders For The Fa And Phase 1 Are Combined). Tenderers Are Therefore Asked Not Only To Submit Their Detailed Offer For Phase 1, But Also To State Their Goals, And To Outline Their Plans (Including Price Conditions) For Phases 2 And 3. // The Three Phases Are: (I) Phase 1: Solution Design. A Fa And A Specific Contract For Phase 1 Will Be Awarded To At Least Six (6) Contractors; (Ii) Phase 2: Prototyping. A Call-Off Will Be Organised For Phase 2, With The Aim Of Awarding At Least Three (3) Phase 2 Contracts. Only Offers From Contractors That Successfully Completed Phase 1 Will Be Eligible For Phase 2. The Procurers Will Validate The Phase 2 Prototypes; And (Iii) Phase 3: Original Development And Testing.
