Danish term

miniudbud

Danish to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s)
This term appears multiple times in a framework agreement for a consultancy firm that I am translating.
The consultant is to provide advice on construction and design work etc within the railway industry.

Aftalegrundlaget ved gennemførelse af miniudbud

Opgaver igangsættes ved direkte tildeling eller ved gennemførelse af miniudbud.

Hvis der gennemføres miniudbud kan der i forbindelse med aftaleindgåelsen aftales bod for nøglemedarbejdere, som beskrevet herunder.

I thought "mini tender" but upon googling this appears to mean something else in English (an offer to buy a small amount of stock).
Anybody got any ideas?

Nikolaj Widenmann Apr 24, 2019:
I would go with mini-competition The term "mini-competition" is described in https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/docserver/5js4vmnmnhf7-en.pdf?... and it seems to mean the same as the definition for "miniudbud". You are right about not using "mini-tender".

mini-competition; de minimis subcontract tendering

Mini-tender in English might be ambiguous for the size of the invitation to tender or the small size of the lots put out to public procurement, but query: whether the Danish term is wholly unequivocal.


Example sentence:

: Mini-Competition Request Form ... the review of the Subcontract Management Framework. Subcontract part or all of the delivery.

Peer comment(s):

agree Nikolaj Widenmann : I would go with mini-competition - like the Danish, it refers to a tender that has been reopened to the parties to a framework agreement

Tusen takk! I tried to get in the 'de minimis' though, as an erstwhile chapter of an English law magazine.

Hvad er et miniudbud og hvornår bruges det?

Spørgsmål / Svar

Miniudbud vedrører tildeling af kontrakter på grundlag af en rammeaftale, der er indgået med flere leverandører. Miniudbud er en tildelingsmetode, hvor der genåbnes for konkurrencen mellem de leverandører, der er indgået rammeaftale med.

Proceduren ved miniudbud er at ordregiver, for hver kontrakt der skal indgås under rammeaftalen, skriftligt og på samme tid skal opfordre de leverandører, der er i stand til at udføre kontrakten til at afgive tilbud.

Leverandører der fx ikke kan tilbyde levering af en eller flere af de efterspurgte varer, behøver således ikke at modtage en opfordring.

Den skriftlige opfordring til afgivelse af tilbud skal indeholde følgende:
•Angivelse af passende frist
•Nødvendige oplysninger evt. præcisering af vilkår
•Kriterier for tildeling og evalueringsmetode
