Lot #1The primary objective of this Framework Agreement is to get the necessary support for…

The primary objective of this Framework Agreement is to get the necessary support for HVDC studies for NGIH and Elia for a common Project (the Nautilus project). These studies might be procured either jointly or separately by Elia and NGIH.

However, this Framework Agreement could also be used solely by Elia for other HVDC projects (not joint projects with NGIH) like for example the MOG II Project. Additional information: This Contract Notice replicates the one published within TED under the title Simulation Studies for HVDC Systems and can be found under the Main CPV code 71320000 (Engineering design services).

Elia will be leading the Tender Process with close support of NGIH. It is therefore preferred to send any requests to participate to Elias Aragonés-Melhem (E-mail: elias.aragonesmelhem@externel.be )

Delivery listed: Belgium (BE), UK
Extensions: A potential extension of the contract is considered of twice two years and once 1 year ( + 2 + 2 + 1). If other options would be applicable, they will be described in the Tender DocumentsVariant bids: not allowed
