About this tender

The tender covers the technical services mandate "Umweltbaubegleitung" (UBB, environmental construction supervision) for the Zukunft Bahnhof Bern project, which is part of the wider procurement titled "Technical services – Zukunft Bahnhof Bern, Bausteine 1, 2, 4, 3a, 3b, Umweltbaubegleitung: 3'000 h externe Projektleitung". It is run as a public procurement procedure by the Fachstelle Beschaffungswesen of the City of Bern. The contractor acts as the environmental construction supervisor. Its duties include monitoring and advising on environmental matters during construction, ensuring compliance with environmental laws, ordinances, guidelines and permit conditions, and assessing environmental problems on site. It advises the client on environmental questions and keeps the enforcement and conditions control (Vollzugs- und Auflagenkontrolle, VAK) up to date and documented, for example in a list or database. It also produces evidence of compliance for the authorities and maintains a register of open environmental items, ideally integrated into the site meeting's action list. The UBB is responsible for all environmental aspects of the project, including planning, tendering, construction logistics, installation areas, transport routes, material flows, construction execution, and protection and reclamation measures. It includes soil-related construction supervision where required. The wording of the building permit is decisive for implementing the conditions. Environmental conditions not yet known when the specification was drafted must also be fulfilled or checked by the contractor. Any demonstrably additional work is compensated under the base contract terms. Detailed services are set out in Annex 01 (Leistungsbeschrieb), and the permit conditions are in Annex 03 (Auflagen Gesamtbauentscheid zu ÜO ZBBS dated 30.10.2025). Product, brand or type references are avoided, and equivalent alternatives are accepted if the bidder demonstrates equivalence. The stated effort is 3,000 hours of external project management, and the contract duration is not stated on the page.
