“1. The Buyer shall submit the Design projects of the Goods to the Supplier and provide support and advice in their usage. The transmission of the Design projects to the Supplier is carried out by drawing up an Act of delivery-receipt signed by both Parties. The Design projects for Lot No.1 will be submitted in Quarter 1 of 2025, and for Lot No.2 within 5 (five) calendar days from the contract signature date. 2. Within 60 calendar days from the signing of the Act of delivery-receipt of Design projects, the Supplier shall ensure the adaptation of the Design and the adjustment of the color range, the printing approval and the production of 5 (five) assembled models for each type of blank. Every step will be coordinated and approved by the Buyer. 3. Within 30 calendar days from the Buyer’s final approval of the assembled Blank models, the Supplier is obliged to produce and deliver to the Buyer, free of charge, Blank-specimens for technological needs according to the Delivery Plan. At the same time, the Supplier shall transmit to the Buyer the Design of the Goods, developed in digital format (PDF format, on electronic support), which contains graphic information (vector and high-quality raster in the corresponding layers).” a) Please provide the definition of “Design projects of the Goods”, and what steps it includes. b) Depending on the response for the previous question, and the exact date of signing of the contract, the given time for the preparation for the production of the cards is significantly short. Thus if the design will be provided 5 days after the signature of the contract, and the Successful Bidder will have 60 days to produce samples, it is not possible to purchase nor the raw materials, nor the chip, nor the hologram within this short period of time. Please note that in case of starting a new project, in general several months are needed to purchase the raw materials after the signature of the contract. For this reason, we would ask to implement an additional preparatory period of 5-6 months after the signature of the contract. This way, this condition is a significant advantage of the current provider, but other companies would also have the chance to provide a competitive offer in time.

7.2.6 Transparent window
Întrebare:
(7.2.6 Transparent window with color change (the transparent area will change its color according to the color of the background on which it is viewed, using technology with which the material used will have the effect of optical change): - on light background: the window will have a primary color (blue); - on dark background: the window will change its hue to a second color (red), and an image will appear as a third color (yellow-green) as an embedded image; NOTE- The same effect is created when the transparent window is illuminated with an artificial light source (ex. Torch). - the embedded image will also be reactive to UV light (yellow-green fluorescence). Area size: 10 mm x 12 mm. The transparent window will accept laser engraving at the personalization stage.) • Should the window that changes color according to the color of the background on which it is viewed (from blue to red) fluoresce under UV light illumination? • Should the embedded image appear only on the dark background? • Is it a requirement for the window to contain one or two OVM – Optical Variable Material (color changing material)? If the answer is: two, then is it required for the OVM that changes color from blue to red to have cut outs which would allow for the second OVM to show through it creating a graphic design that would consist of three colors? (first color being that of the first OVM (the blue/red background), second color being the color of the first OVM (the blue/red background) combined with the color of the second OVM and third color being the color of the second OVM showing through the cut out in the first OVM (the blue/red background)) • Would it be possible to receive a graphic design for this element?
Răspuns (27 iun 2024, 13:41):
1) The fluorescence under UV light illumination for the transparent window is allowed but not mandatory. 2) The embedded image should appear on the dark background, under UV light and when window is illuminated with an artificial light. 3) The bidder should ensure the color shifting of the transparent window according to p. 7.2.6., using the technology up to their discretion. 4) For better understanding of the expected effect of colour shifting for the transparent window please access the appendix ,,Colour shifting of the transparent window.signed.pdf,, The answer to the question can be found in the document ,,Colour shifting of the transparent window.signed.pdf,, uploaded on electronic platform.

These elements will form inlays of foils without any residual materials between them, in order to allow the perfect fusion of the polycarbonate layers during the lamination process.

DOVID items will display the following feature: - maintained in the same plane and angle of light reflection, the two distinct reflective colors of the DOVID will interchange at any 90° rotation. - by tilting DOVID up and down, part or the entire surface of the two colored reflective areas will simultaneously display animations in opposite directions. - a part of one of the two colored reflective areas forms an object that renders a positive 3D relief effect on the "DOVID" surface. - the DOVID will be applied to a layer of polycarbonate to ensure adhesion with the body of the card, being placed in the structure of the card above the layer of biographical data engraved by laser.

Întrebare:
Regarding the request that the sewing must be done through the chip inlay located in the cover to prevent the inlay from being removed from the passport booklet, we would like the customer to kindly consider making optional. First, it adds no security: the risk of inlay removing from a booklet is not a threat. Most forgeries involve disabling the inlay by cutting the connection between the antenna and the module, not removing the whole inlay (it would leave many visible marks like creases or air bubbles on the inner cover). Secondly, it is not standard and requires adaptation that will increase the price of the document.

According to ST MD 35-37603221-231:2024, Annex B on the Passport of citizen of the Republic of Moldova, 8 Binding of the passport booklet, clause 8.3, the sewing method that stitches the sheets into the booklet must be done through the chip inlay located in the cover to prevent the inlay from being removed from the passport booklet and must prevent the pages from being removed without leaving clear traces of this. Question: It is a very uncommon requirement to have stitching trough the chip inlay located in the cover. Normally, the chip inlay is a part of the ecover fixed with reactive or non-reactive bond and there is no way to stitch through it as it would also stitch the cover through. Usually the inlay has a gap in the stitching area. The common practice is bonding the inlay to the cover and the sewn pages secures it from being removed from the booklet while the reinforcement tape secures the pages from being removed from booklet without the trace. Please confirm that the above mentioned practice without stitching though the ecover is acceptable.
