The carefully estimated value of the assignment for the Audiovisual services for the Defense Media Center is estimated at € 3,966,942.15 excluding VAT for the entire duration of the assignment of 4 years. During the term of the Framework Agreement, the financial value of the calls/actual quantity may exceed the originally carefully estimated financial value. This may be because the Contracting Authority needs more effort to carry out its task. However, as a result of the turbulent developments in Europe and the dynamics this brings about for the Dutch armed forces, it must be noted that this expectation may turn out differently. For example, geopolitical tensions, the budgets of the Ministry of Defense and the way in which they are deployed, the further course of the war in Ukraine and the possible emergence of other sources of conflict, can have an impact on the volumes. This could result in more, but possibly also less, being purchased. There is also a chance that a higher budget will be made available during the term of the agreement to comply with the NATO standard. In addition, policy choices within the Contracting Authority or from national politics may lead to more or less need covered by this tender. To deal with this uncertainty and other possible unforeseen circumstances, the maximum contract value has been set at 50% above the carefully estimated value, which amounts to € 5,950,413.22 (excluding VAT) over the entire term of the Framework Agreement (maximum 4 years). Please note: This amount has not yet been made available or released internally by the Client.
