Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH
Do not bid as a standalone prime. The official deadline is 19 August 2026 at noon, not the earlier date implied by the Feedbax summary, but the remaining window is still only three days. The authority requires three recent EUR 50,000 water digital/web-application references, one recent MENA reference, a five-person organisation average and three highly specific GIS/water experts; those gates are not evidenced. A ready ArcGIS/water-sector partner is the only credible route.
Upgrade Jordan's existing ArcGIS Enterprise National Water Master Plan platform into a dynamic decision-support hub that integrates water-sector data, models supply-demand scenarios, visualises current and future resources, trains government staff and transfers the finished system.
Strong technical overlap with Mimir's geospatial decision intelligence, data integration, dashboards and climate planning, but the evidence pack does not establish the required three EUR 50,000 water-application references, MENA reference, three-person expert team, three-year headcount or ISO-aligned ISMS.
Mimir demonstrates GIS and climate-intelligence engineering, but Digital David has no existing product that is an ESRI ArcGIS Enterprise-based Jordanian national water-planning platform; this is a demonstrated-core-competency route further constrained by water-sector, MENA and expert-reference gates.
Portfolio evidence
Decision gates
Digital David AG and its address are verified, but the tender-ready self-declaration, tax data and current register evidence are not present.
Sections 123/124 GWB and section 22 LkSG declarations plus consortium/subcontractor forms where applicable must be executed; none is present.
The gate is EUR 100,000 averaged over three financial years. Verified 2024 and 2025 turnover exceeds the threshold, but 2023 is missing, so the three-year average is not inferred.
At least five employees and managers averaged over the last three calendar years are required. No headcount evidence exists and personnel expense is not used as a proxy.
At least three projects from the last three years, each worth at least EUR 50,000, must cover development of digital/web applications for water. Portfolio descriptions do not prove those attributes.
At least one qualifying MENA reference from the last three years is mandatory; none is verified in the evidence pack.
The Team Leader, Senior GIS Specialist and GIS Software Developer need role-specific degrees, English C1, water/GIS experience, three-to-five years of MENA experience and availability evidence. Expert-team evidence is deferred.
The contractor must operate a documented ISMS satisfying ISO/IEC 27001:2022 or a similar standard and appoint a qualified security officer; no ISMS or certification evidence is available.
The invitation requires the data-processing and TOM annex; no completed contract-specific annex is present.
Mimir demonstrates geospatial analytics and planning-platform capability, but not the exact ESRI water-sector stack, qualifying references or MENA deployment.
Official clarifications · selected by AI relevance
GIZ provides no special residence, social-security or tax exemption. The contractor covers those obligations. Jordanian authorities reimburse sales tax to the contractor; a sales-tax-exempt contractor does not pay it and only income tax applies.
Local compliance, staffing and tax treatment remain contractor responsibilities and must be validated in pricing; the answer does not remove Jordan establishment or payroll risk.
