The Municipality of Utrecht intends to amend the existing advertising concession for bus stop facilities and free-standing display cases. The changes include exercising an extension option, expanding digital advertising surfaces, reducing paper surfaces, and increasing the size of digital screens. These adjustments fall within the current concession conditions and do not require a modification of the concession assignment, making a new procurement unnecessary. The contracting authority nevertheless chooses transparency and is publishing the intention, partly in response to a potential objection. The focus is on maintaining the concession, digitizing advertising objects, and optimizing screen formats, without significant modification of the assignment.

01What is being requested

The Municipality of Utrecht intends to amend the existing advertising concession for bus stop facilities and free-standing display cases. The changes include exercising an extension option, expanding digital advertising surfaces, reducing paper surfaces, and increasing the size of digital screens. These adjustments fall within the current concession conditions and do not require a modification of the concession assignment, making a new procurement unnecessary. The contracting authority nevertheless chooses transparency and is publishing the intention, partly in response to a potential objection. The focus is on maintaining the concession, digitizing advertising objects, and optimizing screen formats, without significant modification of the assignment.

The contracting authority states at the outset that its intention, materially speaking, amounts to making agreements by itself and the concessionaire that fit within the framework of the awarded assignment and therefore, formally speaking, do not constitute a modification of the concession assignment, and certainly not a substantial modification of that concession assignment. Consequently, strictly speaking, a publication pursuant to Art. 4.16 Aw is not necessary. However, the contracting authority believes that transparency is desirable and chooses to make an announcement of the intention any

06Frequently asked questions

Why is this announcement being published if there is no new procurement?
The proposed agreements fit within the framework of the awarded assignment and formally do not constitute a modification of the concession assignment. The contracting authority chooses publication to provide transparency and in response to a potential objection from a stakeholder.
What does the proposed exercise of the extension option entail?
The contracting authority intends to exercise the extension option already included in the concession agreement at this time. This option is a revision clause that does not only have to be invoked at the end of the term or at a specific moment.
What changes are being implemented in the advertising surfaces?
An expansion of the number of digital surfaces is planned, combined with a simultaneous reduction in the number of paper surfaces. Additionally, the incumbent concessionaire intends to improve the existing digital screens in the free-standing advertising display cases with screens that are slightly larger.
Are changes to the number and type of advertising objects permitted?
Yes, the concession conditions do not prescribe an exact number of surfaces and expressly allow numbers to change due to the placement or removal of objects. The digitalization of paper objects is also explicitly permitted within the current framework.
