The subject matter of the present award procedure is a framework agreement with an economic operator pursuant to Paragraph 21(3) of the VgV for the procurement of endpoint security for the hospitals of Sana Kliniken AG as clients entitled to call (Annex 3 to the contract).

The existing security infrastructure of the call-off clients is to be expanded and supplemented by endpoint security.

Classic virus scanners are to be supplemented by machine learning, which is used to create behavioral profiles and thereby detect anomalies (deviations from normal behavior at endpoint level). This is intended to increase protection against known and unknown threats on clients and servers.

The software to be procured should also be maintained; a comprehensive service should also be available during the term of the contract.

In addition, the software is to be installed by the contractor in the clinics authorized to call and implemented in their security architecture.

The framework agreement is a contract concluded for the term specified in the notice which obliges the contractor(s) to perform the services called up with individual contracts under the conditions laid down in the framework agreement and the respective individual contract.

These individual contracts shall be awarded exclusively by the contracting entities referred to in Appendix 3 "List of contracting entities" to the undertaking(s) which is(or are) party to the framework agreement at that time.

The clients entitled to call (Annex 3) are recipients of subsidies from the Hospital Future Act and are obliged to comply with procurement law by the funding decision. Some contracting authorities are bound by (antitrust) procurement law as contracting authorities within the meaning of the GWB.

The KHZG is driving digitization forward. In the course of continuous digitization, IT security must also be further expanded so that critical IT infrastructures are protected in the best possible way.

In compliance with the legal requirements of the procurement regulations, the planned projects for the introduction or expansion of endpoint security in the clinics entitled to access are put out to tender in order to protect computer workstations.

The details of the specific procurement project can be found in the procurement documents.
