DALO has prepared a pre-qualification questionnaire which applicants are strongly encouraged to use when submitting their applications for pre-qualification. The pre-qualification questionnaire can be obtained by emailing a request to the contact person stated in Section I.1. However, it is emphasized that it is the sole responsibility of the candidate that the information fulfils the requirements in this Contract Notice.

All requests for participation should be send to the address stated in Annex A, III. Request for participation is NOT accepted by e-mail. The application should preferably be marked ‘CWI transmitters — Confidential, att. Jens Henrik Simonsen — must not be opened in the postal receipt.

Re. Section III.2) According to directive 2004/18, art. 47(2) and art. 48(3) and directive 2009/81, art. 41(2) and 42(2), a candidate may rely on the economic, financial and/or technical capacity of other entities, regardless of the legal nature of the links with the entities. If a candidate wants to rely on other entities and wishes that the capacity of other entities is included when establishing the suitability of the candidate, the candidate must prove that the other entities will and shall put the relevant resources at the disposal of the candidate. For instance this is fulfilled if the candidate submits a co-operation agreement clearly stating that the candidate has the relevant resources at its disposal (conversely, it is not sufficient to submit a declaration stating that the candidate is entitled to sell products on behalf of another entity if the candidate wishes to rely on the capacity of this other entity). The pre-qualification questionnaire can be used in this regard.

When submitting the bids (but not the application for participation) the tenderers must submit a solemn declaration stating to which degree the tenderer has fulfilled its obligations relating to the payment of direct and indirect taxes and social security contributions in accordance with the legal provisions of the country in which the candidate is established and in Denmark in accordance with consolidation act no. 336 of 13 May 1997 regarding public payments. A form that the tenderers can use will be submitted with the tender material.

Negotiations

Negotiations will be focused on the strengths and weaknesses of the submitted tenders and will be based on the contract award criteria as well as possible reservations to the terms of the tender. DALO reserves the right — based on the award criteria — to short-list the candidates after the evaluation of the indicative offers (i.e. to reduce the number of candidates even if the tenderer in question fulfils the mandatory requirements).

After having conducted the negotiations, a revised set of tender documents may be submitted based on the experiences from the negotiations. Hereafter, the candidates are requested to make any alteration (if any) to the indicative offer necessitated by the negotiations and to submit either af new indicative offer that leads to further negotiations or a best and final offer (BAFO). After receipt of the BAFO, DALO will evaluate all the best and final offers in order to identify the most economically advantageous offer, using the award criteria as further described in the tender conditions.

When submitting contact details the candidates are encouraged to submit as much information as possible and preferable also the e-mail address of the candidate's contact person.

As part of the INDO1 phase, DALO will set up a site survey and information meeting, which is expected to be held in March 2015. The exact date of the site survey and information meeting will be informed the tenderers in the tender material following the pre-qualification phase.

The funding of the contract is conditioned upon approval from the Danish parliament.
