The Danish Defense Acquisition and Logistics
Organization (DALO) needs to acquire at least three types of backpacks for military use. The
acquisition will be structured as one framework agreement covering all three types
of backpacks. The framework agreement will have only one supplier, cf. section
II.1.4) above. Furthermore, the tenderers will have the possibility to offer a
wider range of relevant backpacks to DALO, but the vast majority of the
purchases under the framework agreement will be comprised of the following three
types of backpacks.
Firstly, DALO needs to acquire a 3 Days Backpack (approx.
70L) with
a high level comfort and therefore be designed in such a way, that it is
adaptable to the individual soldiers anatomy. The 3 Days Backpack must be
capable of carrying between 25-35 kg and up to 60 kg for shorter periods of
time.
Secondly, DALO needs to acquire a modern, ergonomic
correct designed Day Backpack (approx. 35L) which should have a high comfort
and therefore be adaptable to different soldier’s anatomy. The Day Backpack
must by capable of carrying between 15-20 kg.
Thirdly, DALO needs to acquire a modern, ergonomic
correct designed Heavy Load Carrier Backpack. The Heavy Load Carrier Backpack should have a high comfort
and therefore be adaptable to different soldier’s anatomy. Furthermore the heavy
load carrier Backpack should be suitable for carrying heavy and bulky items
such as jerry cans, ammunition boxes and a heavy machine gun, the nozzle gun
and other supplies and therefore be capable of carrying 60 kg.
Both the 3 Day Backpack and the Heavy Load Carrier shall be able to be integrated with the body armor system (TYR), and shall be able to transfer a considerable part of the weight to the hip region on the body armor Brokos belt.
The tenderers will, as
stated above, also have the opportunity to offer other types of backpacks than
the three types of backpacks mentioned above, provided that these backpacks
comply with a number of requirements. Further details will be given in the
tender material.
