Objektive kriterier for udvælgelse af det begrænsede antal ansøgere
For the purpose of achieving the best possible competition, DALO will choose a number of candidates for participation in the tender procedure based on the candidate’s size. Thus, the candidates will be divided into the following groups of enterprises based on information about the candidates’ number of full time employees, turnover and balance sheet total: (1) micro and small enterprises and (2) medium-sized and large enterprises. The definition of the said groups are partly based on the Commission Recommendation of 6 May 2003 (2003/361/EC) and is described in full detail in the document “Additional information”, which is located at the ETHICS-webportal, cf. section I.3). It is underlined that it is the definition described in the said document that is applicable.
Thus, it is DALO’s intention to choose:
-up to 2 candidates which are micro or small enterprises (group 1);
-up to 3 candidates which are medium-sized or large enterprises (group 2).
The number of candidates assigned to each group is based on a market survey that DALO has conducted.
If DALO receives fewer applications for participation within a group than the number of candidates DALO has assigned to that particular group, DALO will not invite additional candidates from other groups.
However, DALO will deviate from this rule if this is necessary to be able to invite (3) three candidates to the tender procedure. In this case, DALO will apply the principles for limitation of candidates as described below within each group and then by priority choose a number of the remaining candidates from group 1 and group 2 until a total of three candidates are invited to participate (only one additional candidate will be chosen from each group, unless there are no remaining candidates in the other groups). For illustration purposes see example hereof in the document “Additional information” available on the ETHICS-webportal, cf. section I.3).
-
The candidate must in the ESPD, Part V: Reduction of the number of qualified candidates, state in the textbox for further information, which group of enterprise the candidate is defined as. Furthermore, the candidate should in the textbox submit the most relevant information for determining which group of enterprise the candidate is defined as. As a minimum, the following data should be stated: Number of full time employees, annual turnover and balance sheet total. If the candidate is relying on other entities, cf. above, these entities must also submit an ESPD. However, they shall not provide information about which group of enterprise the entity is, number of full time employees, annual turnover or balance sheet, since this information is already included in the determination of which group of enterprise the candidate is defined as, and this information shall thus instead be stated in the candidate’s ESPD, cf. the document “Additional information” available on the ETHICS-webportal, cf. section I.3).
-
The candidate must on DALO’s request provide documentation establishing that the candidate at the time of application for participation was defined as the specific group of enterprise. Documentation may be annual reports or excerpts thereof, an auditor’s statement or equivalent forms of documentation.
-
The limitation of candidates within each group of enterprises will be based on an evaluation of which candidates have documented the most relevant previous deliveries in comparison to the contract/purchases described in section II.1.4) above. In the evaluation, DALO will take into account the nature and quantity of the previous deliveries and the time of delivery so that more recent deliveries will be deemed more relevant than older deliveries. The evaluation will be based on the list submitted by the candidates in the ESPD according to section III.1.3). Please note that any ambiguities and/or incomprehensibilities in the information submitted may be regarded negatively in the evaluation when selecting the limited numbers of candidates.

The candidate must use the European Single Procurement Document (electronic version, hereafter ESPD –) and provide the following information in the ESPD:
Its equity ratio (calculated by dividing the candidate's equity with the candidate' total assets (equity/total assets x 100) at the end of the last 3 (three) financial years, to the extent such information is available, cf. Part IV, section B.
Upon request from DALO, the candidate must submit the following documentation:
-
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 (three) financial years, to the extent such information is available. When groups of entities (e.g. consortiums), including temporary joint ventures, participate in the tender procedure together, the documentation must be provided for each of the participating entities. If the candidate relies on the economic and financial standing of another entity or entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a sub supplier), the documentation must equally be provided for each entity or entities.
Be advised that DALO at any time during the procurement procedure can request that the candidate presents the abovementioned documentation if this is deemed necessary to secure that the procurement procedure is conducted correctly. In this situation, DALO will set an appropriate time limit for the submission of the documentation.
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. In this case, the candidate shall ensure that an ESPD from the entity or entities on which the candidate relies is submitted along with the candidate’s own ESPD. The entity or entities’ ESPD must equally provide the information listed above.

The candidate must have had positive equity ratio in 2 (two) out of 3 (three) latest 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 (three) 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 (three) financial years available.

Liste og kortfattet beskrivelse af udvælgelseskriterier
The candidate must use the European Single Procurement Document ( ESPD) and provide the following information in the ESPD:
A list of the most important similar deliveries (references), cf. section II.1.4) carried out prior to the deadline for the request to participate cf. Part IV, section C.
The list should preferably include a short description of each delivery. The description should include a clear indication of which specific parts of the deliveries that are similar to the supplies described in section II.1.4) The description should include a description of the candidate’s participation/role in the performance of the deliveries. The description should contain information on; the date of the deliveries, the size/quantity/volume 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 of commencement and completion. 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.
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 II.2.9). If the delivery in question is ongoing, it is only the part of the supplies 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 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). Therefore, it is 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.
The list must contain a maximum of 5 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 5, DALO will only consider the first 5 deliveries on the list. Deliveries beyond this number will be disregarded.
DALO will evaluate positively if the candidate has experience with; punched items made of brass and German silver, 24 k gold plating, 999 fine silver plating, experience in producing enameled products, which will be deemed more relevant than working with other materials/processes. Furthermore, experience with delivering to organisations similar to DALO e.g.; defence, police, emergency management agencies, etc. will be more relevant than delivery to other not alike organisations.
A candidate may rely on the technical and professional capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or sub supplier), irrespective of the legal nature of the relations between the candidate and the entity or entities on which the candidate relies. In this case, the candidate shall ensure that an ESPD from the entity/entities on which the candidate relies is submitted along with the candidate’s own ESPD. The entity/entities’ ESPD must equally provide the information listed above
The candidate will not be required to present further documentation for the technical and professional capacity (ie. the information in the ESPD is considered sufficient). However, DALO reserves the right to contact the candidate and/or the recipients of the deliveries in order to verify the information stated in Part IV, section C in the ESPD, including details on the specified dates of the performance of the deliveries.

“Regarding section II.1.5): The estimated value of the framework agreement is 13 mio. DKK and the maximum value of the framework agreement is 19 mio. DKK....”
Regarding section II.1.5): The estimated value of the framework agreement is 13 mio. DKK and the maximum value of the framework agreement is 19 mio. DKK. The reason for the difference between the stated values is the uncertainty regarding the final value of the framework agreement, cf. below. Hence, the estimated value constitutes DALO’s most qualified estimate of the value of the framework agreement at the present moment, while the maximum value constitutes the maximum value of purchases under the framework agreement in its duration.
The uncertainty regarding the final value of the framework agreement is primarily caused by uncertainty regarding exactly how extensively the deliverables of the framework agreement will be distributed in the Danish Defence. If decision is made that the deliverables in question shall be utilized by more groups of personnel than what is actually decided for now, this will lead to a significant larger expenditure on the framework agreement than what is expected at the moment.
DALO demands that the candidate and each of the legal entities whose economic and financial capacities the candidate relies on undertake joint and several liability for the performance of the contract.
Regarding section IV.2.4): The request to participate shall be in the language stated in section IV.2.4. Please see the document “Additional information”, which is located at the ETHICS-webportal, cf. section I.3), for further information regarding language requirements in the tender procedure.
The framework agreement contains requirements regarding labour clause, CSR requirements, international sanctions as well as provisions regarding risk assessment and follow-up actions. Upon prequalification application, the applicant is asked to sign a self-declaration on compliance with labour clauses, CSR obligations and international sanctions, cf. “Additional information”. If the self-declaration is not signed, the applicant will be excluded from participation in the procurement process. DALO has uploaded a template (available in the ETHICS web portal) which must be used as a statement. See the "Additional information" document, which is available on the ETHICS web portal, for more information.

The candidate must together with the application submit an ESPD as preliminary evidence of the circumstances set out in § 148(1) (1-3) of the Public Procurement Act.
