Technical specification

1) “7 .1.1.2 The cardbody shall be made out from PC in a multilayer security structure, technologically assembled, with a thickness not exceeding 0,76 mm and rounded corners at the outer edges (radius 3, l 8±0,30mm). Note: Manufacturer shall provide to Beneficiary the information on the number of layers of the PC card, which must not be less than 6 layers.” We would like to ask PSA to allow the bidders to recommend different multi-layer structure and thickness of the polycarbonate data page, keeping the requirement of security features and the high-quality of the products.

Technical specification

2) “7.1.1.3 The hinge, made out of synthetic material, shall be partially inserted in a PC security card body.” We would like to ask PSA to allow the bidders to recommend a fully inserted hinge in the polycarbonate data page instead of the partially inserted one, thus this way the polycarbonate data page will own a better result in tensile strength, furthermore, it does not have any disadvantageous attribute nor on the graphics, nor on the quality of the product.

Technical specification

3) “The hinge shall be secured with enough security features of the level 1 (inspected without equipment) and level 2 (inspected with simple equipment), allowing its easy/instant identification and preventing the card body removing and/or replacement, namely: UV fluorescent inks/IR inks and/or other features embedded in the material; design features precisely aligned in a certain sequence etc.” Please allow to change the requirement of level 2 security feature of the hinge. It does not have a significant effect on the security of the product, thus, we would like to recommend other, additional security feature in the booklet (level 2 or level 3), which would protect the document with higher security.

Technical specification

As stated in the technical specification, the passport products differ in the color of the cover. Is there any other part which shall be different? For example, the color of the inside cover page, visa pages, data page, differences in design, serial numbering, etc.

Technical specification

“7.1.2.1. e) transparent window with color changing effect (transparent area will change color according to the color of the background on which it is viewed, using technology whereby the material used will have the effect of optical change):” Is there any specific requirement regarding the shape of the transparent window, or the bidders can recommend?

24 июн 2024, 15:21

Technical specification

“6.7 The serial number of the passport shall be applied: - to the bottom on the inside front cover - letterpress printing;” We would like to ask PSA to allow the bidders to recommend placing the letterpress numbering on the first page following the polycarbonate data page (first paper-based page). It is recommended from several points of view, like personalization, verification and technological points. On the other hand, the general production practice of the passports justifies this method of serial numbering.

Delivery times / contract

“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 passport is significantly short. Thus the contract shall be signed at least 6-7 months before the sample production of the passport booklets, due to the design preparation phase, raw material preparation, acceptance and order. For this reason, we would like to recommend to modify the requirement according to the above-mentioned time frame. 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.
