Electronic Tender System:
Participation in the tendering procedure may only take place by electronic means via the electronic tendering system used by the Contracting Authority, see the address set out in section I.3). The tendering procedure is accessed under the tab “Ongoing public procedures”. For access to the tender documents, the tenderer must be registered or register as a user.
If the tender contains several versions of the same document, the latest uploaded version will apply.
All communication in connection with the tender procedure, including questions and answers, must be through the electronic tendering system. Questions must be submitted no later than 5.11.2018. Questions asked after this date will be answered if they are received in time for the Contracting Authority to provide the information required and communicate the answer no later than six (6) days before expiry of the application deadline. Questions received later than six (6) days before expiry of the deadline cannot expect to be answered.
Interested operators are requested to keep updated via the electronic tendering system.
If the tenderer encounters problems with the system, please contact Technical Support at either mail
dksupport@eu-supply.com or by telephone on (+45) 70 20 80 14.
The European Single Procurement Document - ESPD:
The tenderer must submit as part of the tender an ESPD as preliminary documentation of the circumstances set out in section 148(1)(i-iii) of the Danish Public Procurement Act (udbudsloven). For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium), a separate ESPD must be submitted for each participating operator. If the tenderer relies on the capacity of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for each of the entities on which the tenderer relies.
The XML file required for generating the electronic ESPD (the eESPD) is available via the electronic tender system. Please refer to the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority’s guidance paper regarding the ESPD.
Before the decision to award the contract is made, the tenderer to whom the Contracting Authority intends to award the contract must provide documentation of the information submitted in the ESPD pursuant to sections 151-152, cf. section 153 of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
The tenderer will be excluded from participation in the tender procedure if the tenderer is subject to the compulsory grounds for exclusion set out in sections 135 and 136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, and the grounds for exclusion set out in section 137(1) No. 2 and 7 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, unless the tenderer has submitted sufficient documentation of its reliability in accordance with section 138 of the Danish Public Procurement Act
Please note that some of the voluntary grounds for exclusion in Directive 2014/24/EU are mandatory grounds for exclusion in the Danish Public Procurement Act.
The voluntary grounds for exclusion are applied while complying with the principle of proportionality. Hence, no trivial matters may result in the exclusion of the Tenderer. Several matters, which, individually, are trivial in nature, may, however, give rise to exclusion of the tenderer.
As regards section II.1.5) and II.2.6), it should be noted that the amount is an estimate of the expected contract price for a four-year (48 months) duration of the contract. The estimate is based on the historical use of Social Media Marketing Software in the last couple of years.
