Tender procedure regulations and Recovery agreement 2013 - 2016 revised

Wednesday 27 June 2012
On 25 June last, the Court of Amsterdam banned the bonus-penalty scheme contained in the Tender procedure regulations 2013 - 2016 of Stichting Incident Management Nederland. As a result of this judgement, Stichting Incident Management Nederland has been forced to revise the Tender procedure regulations 2013 - 2016 and the Recovery agreement 2013 - 2016. The bonus-penalty scheme has been scrapped entirely. As in previous years, the awarding of recovery districts will be undertaken on the basis of the weighted average of the charges offered by all qualified providers in the given district. In the Recovery agreement 2013 - 2016, the minimum requirements contained in article 7.3 relating to the number of callouts to be undertaken within the standard time period will be raised from 80% to 90%. In all other respects, both documents will remain unaltered as compared to the versions published on 14 June last.

The corrected versions of the Tender procedure regulations 2013 - 2016 and the Recovery agreement 2013 - 2016 are available online. Copies of both documents, in which the changes are marked, have been sent by Stichting Incident Management Nederland to all known recovery companies. Stichting Incident Management Nederland advises all interested parties to take note of the changes and to delete previously published versions of the Tender procedure regulations 2013 - 2016 and the Recovery agreement 2013 - 2016 from their documentation. The previously published versions of the Tender procedure regulations 2013 - 2016 and the Recovery agreement 2013 - 2016 are no longer valid. All valid versions bear the date 27 June 2012 on the title page.
