01What is being requested
This is a German tender (opening date 24-Apr-2025) for a premium compute-time-plan for superconducting quantum processors. TNO requires access to experimental QPUs (Condor, Osprey) and the largest non-experimental QPU (Heron). It targets a service (negotiation without publication), CPV 72800000, without price specification and no deadline. The tender is closed.
The Quantum Platform is the provider's IaaS for the procurement of compute time from suppliers of superconducting Quantum Processing Units (QPUs). TNO is specifically looking for a premium plan because this also provides access to experimental QPUs. These are unique in the following aspects; • The experimental superconducting QPUs Condor (1121 qb) and Osprey (433 qb) are the largest on the market, with a factor of 10 difference compared to the next superconducting QPU, the Rigetti Ankaa-2 (84 qb) • The non-experimental QPU 'Heron' (133 qb) is also larger than the alternatives in the market.
02Exclusion grounds
- No specific exclusion grounds were extracted. In a European tender, the mandatory and discretionary grounds of art. 2.86/2.87 of the Dutch Procurement Act almost always apply — check the European Single Procurement Document (ESPD).
