EU procurement selection of executing parties for the reconstruction of Talland College Zaandam
EU non-public procurement for the phased reconstruction of two wings of Talland College in Zaandam, where the award is based on the lowest price.
Works · Restricted · European procedure
01What is being requested
The assignment concerns the reconstruction of building parts A and D of Talland College in Zaandam, including building works, site landscaping, mechanical and electrical installations. Execution will take place in phases, during which the building remains partially in use.
Talland College faces a large-scale reconstruction task for the location at Cypressehout in Zaandam. The current location offers sufficient space considering student projections and educational concepts, but no longer fully meets the requirements regarding types of rooms, layout, and building technology. After considering several scenarios, it has been decided to thoroughly remodel and renovate two wings of this location, namely wings A and D, to adapt the location to the current requirements and wishes of this era for modern vocational education.
02Strategic insight
When applying, focus on demonstrating the four specific competencies (GFA > 4,500m2, educational function, partially in use, and coordinating role) through relevant reference projects. Ensure a solid financial substantiation of the last three financial years to meet the financial capacity requirement. Take into account the lowest price as the sole award criterion in phase 2; technical quality will no longer be used as a selection criterion in this phase.
