Supply of drinking water, dispensers, water containers and cups to the Port Authority of Las Palmas

Summary

The contract covers continuous drinking-water supply to the Port Authority of Las Palmas workplaces using dispensers and reusable 18–20 litre water containers, plus biodegradable cardboard cups supplied on request. The contractor must rent or provide the dispensers, install them, deliver containers regularly and collect empties, maintain, clean and sanitise the dispensers, repair faults, and remove the equipment at the end of the contract. Dispensers must be bottom-loading and serve workplaces at the ports in Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. The contractor must also substantiate water quality through laboratory analyses. Normal deliveries are weekly on working days between 9:00 and 14:00; urgent orders must be delivered within 48 hours. Dispenser faults must be repaired within 48 hours of notification or, if repair is not possible, the unit must be replaced within 72 hours. Preventive maintenance is required at least quarterly, filters must be replaced at least four times a year, and dispensers must be sanitised at least every six months. The bid must state three unit prices, none above the tender ceilings: €6 per dispenser per month, €0.33 per litre of water and €0.050 per cup. Price is the sole award criterion. Estimated annual quantities are 65,124 litres of water and 295,000 cups, with 30 dispensers to be installed and up to 10 additional units available if needed. These figures are estimates, not guaranteed minimum consumption; payment is only for quantities actually delivered and units actually put into service. The initial contract term is two years, with three possible one-year extensions. The estimated contract value is €195,604.60 excluding IGIC. The procurement documents contain inconsistent budget and IGIC figures: the administrative documents state a total of €87,488.66 including IGIC, while the technical specification states €82,177.97; bidders should verify the applicable figure in the official documents. Participation requires evidence of the stated financial and technical capacity and the team and logistics information required by the technical specification. Offers are assessed on price alone.
