DSS currently has a telephony contract with an existing provider for landline and mobile telephony. The existing contract expires in April 2017 and DSS would like to use this procurement to sign a new framework agreement with a tenderer for the provision of telephony services.
Telephony is an important work tool for DSS and the other entities in the joint ministries. There are high requirements for security, quality and service availability, both for normal daily use and in times of crisis and stand-by. DSS has, thus, a need to enter into a new contract with a tenderer who can provide secure and stable access to the mobile and landline network.
The procurement of mobile terminals and landline telephones with the relevant accessories is not included in this contract.
The agreement must give flexibility in connection to changes of costs resulting from changes in user patterns and service scope.
Further specifications of the functional requirements will be in the tender documentation.
