Betingelser for deltagelse
Egnethed til at udøve det erhverv:

When submitting the offers (but not the request for participation), the tenderers must submit a solemn declaration stating to which degree the tenderer has unpaid overdue debt in relation to tax, duties or social security contributions under Danish law or under the law of the country in which the tenderer is established. A template for the declaration will be provided with the tender documents, and the tenderer is encouraged — but not obliged — to use it.

Be advised, that DALO shall exclude a tenderer which has unpaid overdue debt of 100 000 DKK or more to public authorities in relation to tax, duties or social security contributions under Danish law or under the law of the country in which the tenderer is established.

However, DALO may not exclude a tenderer which has provided sufficient documentation that the tenderer is reliable. DALO will decide whether the documentation is sufficient, hence the tenderer is considered reliable, based on the guidelines equal to the guidelines provided for in Section 138(1-4) of the Danish Act nº 1564 of 15.12.2015 — The Public Procurement Act.

Økonomisk og finansiel stilling:

Annual reports or excerpts hereof or other documentation stating the candidate's equity ratio (calculated by dividing the candidate’s equity with the candidate’s total assets (equity/total assets x 100) at the end of the last 3 financial years, to the extent such information is available.

Mindstekrav til niveauet:

The candidate must have had a positive equity ratio for each of the last 3 financial years. The equity ratio is calculated by dividing the candidate's equity with the candidate's total assets (equity/total assets x 100).

If the candidate is composed of a group of entities (e.g. consortium), including temporary joint ventures, the equity ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of all the participants’ equities with the sum of all the participants’ total assets (sum of equity/sum of total assets x 100) in each of the last 3 financial years available.

If the candidate relies on the economic and financial standing of an entity or entities, the equity ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of the candidate’s and the entity or entities’ equity with the sum of the candidate’s and the entity or entities’ total assets (sum of equity/sum of total assets x 100) in each of the last 3 financial years available.

Please note that a candidate may rely on the economic and financial standing of other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a sub supplier), irrespective of the legal nature of the relations between the candidate and the entity or entities on which the candidate relies.

Teknisk og faglig kompetence:

A list of the most important similar deliveries (references), cf. section II.1.5), carried out within the past 5 years prior to the deadline for the request to participate.

Only the deliveries (references) performed at the time of the deadline for the request to participate will be considered when assessing which candidate has documented the most relevant previous deliveries, cf. section IV.1.2). If the delivery in question is ongoing, it is only the part of the supplies carried out within the past 5 years and completed at the time of the deadline for the request to participate, which will be included in the assessment of the delivery (reference). Consequently, if a part of the supplies has not been carried out within the past 5 years or if a part of the supplies has not been completed at the time of the deadline for the request to participate, this particular part will Not be included in the assessment of the delivery (reference). It is therefore important that the candidate clearly states which part (e.g. with regards to size, value, quantity or volume) of an ongoing delivery (reference) that has been carried out within the past 5 years.

The reference list should preferably include a short description of each delivery. The description of the deliveries should include:

— a clear indication of which specific parts the deliveries are similar to the supplies, described in section II.1.5,

— a description of the candidates participation/role in the performance of the deliveries,

— information on the date of the deliveries,

— the size and value of the deliveries,

— the recipients of the deliveries (specific names/countries are preferred, but not necessary; if no country specific information is included, the candidate is asked to provide as much generic information as possible about the delivery).

When specifying the date for the deliveries, the candidate should state the date for the commencement and completion of the deliveries. If this is not possible, e.g. because the delivery in question is performed on an ongoing basis according to a Framework Agreement, the description of the deliveries should nonetheless contain information on how the date is set.

The list must contain a maximum of 10 previous deliveries, whether the candidate is one entity, composed of a group of entities (e.g. consortium), including temporary joint ventures, or relies on the technical and professional capacity of other entities. If the list contains more than 10, DALO will only consider the first 10 deliveries on the list. Deliveries beyond that will be disregarded.

Please note that a candidate may rely on the technical and professional capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a sub supplier), irrespective of the legal nature of the relations between the candidate and the entity or entities on which the candidate relies.

Mindstekrav til niveauet:

The candidate must demonstrate experience with as a minimum 3 similar deliveries within the past 5 years prior to the deadline for the request to participate.
