Contract / delivery times

“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.
