DEMA needs
to be able to erect different configurations and combinations of prefabricated
houses/units at short notice, typically in disaster-affected countries with
relatively poor or wiped-out infrastructure.
The
anticipated response time when deploying DEMA’s capacities is between 48 hours
and 7 weeks. During the initial phase, tent-based solutions will typically be
put up; these will continuously be replaced with prefabricated units if the
assignment is foreseeably set to last for a lengthy period. A lengthy period is
defined as an assignment lasting no less than six months.
DEMA has
identified a need for prefabricated houses/units for several types of missions:
-
A
base camp concept which must be able to accommodate 60 people, with office,
meeting/teaching facilities, bathroom/toilet, laundrette, kitchen and canteen
(approx. 72 units of varying type and size)
-
Reception
centers (40 workplaces) for refugee camps, consisting of office,
meeting/teaching facilities, and bathrooms/toilet facilities (approx. 40 units
of varying type and size)
-
Support
functions for the Emergency Management Agency’s Mobile Hospital concept,
including stores for medicine, office, meeting/teaching facilities, as well as
bathroom/toilet, laundrette, kitchen and canteen (approx. 20 units of varying
type and size)
-
Other
types of missions including education and training (approx. 5 – 20 units of
varying type and size)
In order to
accommodate a growing requirement from the UN, International Humanitarian
Partnership (IHP) and other parties requesting prefabricated houses/units, DEMA
wishes to conclude a framework agreement that enables DEMA to be supplied with any
of the above requested houses/units-scenarios necessary for a specific mission
within 45 days ex works at DEMA’s logistics center in Herning.
