Kort beskrivelse:

Denmark has been a prominent donor to the Mozambican development process since independence in 1975, and Mozambique has for many years been a priority country for Danish Development Cooperation. Denmark has provided a large range of support to Mozambique. In the early years post-independence, as Mozambique experienced a protracted civil war lasting over 17 years, the support focused on humanitarian assistance. After the signature of the Rome Peace Agreement in 1992, marking the end of the civil war, Denmark has been an active and engaged partner to the democratisation and state-building process in Mozambique. With the decision to focus Danish development assistance and reduce the official ODA to 0,7 % of GDP, Denmark has decided to phase out its development cooperation with Mozambique by 2019, ending over 40 years of development cooperation with Mozambique.

Mozambique has historically been the recipient of large amounts of international aid, and given the size of the Danish contribution and engagement vis-à-vis the Mozambican government and other development partners, it is not expected that the evaluation can attribute direct results at higher levels of outcome to the specific Danish Cooperation. However, the evaluation seeks to shed light on the added value of the Danish partnership approach to development cooperation in Mozambique, with a specific focus on how Denmark has supported the transition from conflict to peace and relative stability and development.

In order to document results of this long engagement and to provide accountability to the Danish as well as the Mozambican people, Denmark is commissioning an independent evaluation of the Danish support provided to Mozambique. The evaluation will serve as a basis for dissemination of results to the public and other interested parties, thus documenting the results and experiences gained from Danish-Mozambican development cooperation.

The 3 overall objectives of the evaluation are therefore to:

1. Results: Document the changes and results achieved through Danish-Mozambican cooperation from 1992-2016, with a specific focus on data collection from the period 2006-2016 (1992-2006 covered in previous evaluation and can be used as source of documentation);

2. Value Added: Assess the specific value added of the Danish approach to partnership, including the choice of modalities, engagements the ability of Denmark as a donor to adapt to changing contexts ranging from post-conflict to a more stable situation;

3. Lessons learned: To provide potential lessons learned based on the findings on partnerships and how to support the transition from fragility to development.

The focus of the evaluation — and thus the allocation of the major part of the resources for the evaluation — will be on question 2, focusing on the effectiveness of the Danish contribution to the transition and development process and the larger development cooperation effort as well as the Danish approach applied in this process.

The maximum budget for the assignment is 1 350 000 DKK.

Expected start date for the assignment is 2.1.2017.

A signed electronic version of the ESPD (pdf file) along with documentation for the information provided in the ESPD, unless it is publicly and electronically accessible free of charge, must be received by the Contracting Authority at the address stated in Section I.1) before the time limit stated in Section IV.2.2) of this Contract Notice.

The Contracting Authority shall exclude an economic operator from participation in a procurement procedure where they have established that the applicant is covered by the exclusion grounds listed in the Danish Procurement Law, (Udbudsloven) § 135 and 136 (Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, article 57(1)-(3) and article 57 (4)(e), (f) and (h)) (i.e. Grounds relating to criminal convictions, grounds relating to the payment of taxes or social security contributions, Grounds relating to conflicts of interests or distortion of competition from the prior involvement of the economic operators in the preparation of the procurement procedure, if this cannot be remedied by other, less intrusive measures, guilty of serious misrepresentation of information).

The Contracting Authority will exclude an applicant from the procurement procedure if the applicant is in a situation covered by the Danish Procurement Law (Udbudsloven) § 137, stk. 1, no 2. (Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, article 57 (4) (b)) (i.e. Grounds relating to insolvency).

Applicants shall with the ESPD include, documentation for the information given in the ESPD regarding the exclusion grounds listed in the Danish Procurement Law § 135, stk. 1 and 3, and §137 stk. 1, no 2 (Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, article 57 (1), article 57 (2), and article 57 (4)(b)) (i.e. Grounds relating to criminal convictions, the payment of taxes or social security contributions and grounds relating to insolvency). For Danish applicants documentation can be presented in the form of a ‘serviceattest’.

Entities from other EU member countries may identify the relevant certificate(s) using the online e-Certis, if it is updated.

The Ministry reserves the right — but is not obliged — to use the remedies provided for in the Danish Procurement Law, §159, stk. 5, if applications or tenders do not fulfil the formalities of the tender documents. (Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, article 56 (3)).

Rationale for not splitting the contract up into lots (cf. Danish Procurement Law §49, stk. 2): This contract has not been split into lots due to market and economic considerations. The size and character of the services to be provided makes it unsuitable for distributing over several lots. (This text may need to be adapted depending on the type and size of contract).

The Client opposes exclusive agreements with sub-consultants, be they organisations or individuals.
