Yderligere oplysninger:

It is stressed that the voluntary grounds for exclusion in section 137 of the Danish Public Procurement Act do not apply for this procurement, irrespective of whether the text in 'Participation' (which is system-generated) may suggest this. No particular legal form is required. If the agreement is awarded to a group of suppliers (e.g. a consortium), the participants shall undertake joint and several liability and appoint one supplier to represent the group. The agreement is not divided into lots since a division of the agreement will undermine the economies of scale obtainable by one agreement. It is DALO’s assessment that the conclusion of the agreement may be subject to a permit requirement according to the Investment Screening Act (Act No. 842 of 10 May 2021, as amended). For further information in that regard, see the Instructions to Tenderers. It is pointed out that this procedure is subject to Article 5k of Regulation (EU) no. 833/2014, as amended. The provision contains a prohibition against award of contracts to Russian companies and Russian-controlled companies etc. (reference is made to Article 5k, section 1 for the exact delimitation of the operators that are subject to the prohibition). DALO reserves the right at any time during the tender process to require tenderers to prove that they are not subject to the prohibition, for example by requiring documentation regarding the tenderers’ and any subcontractors’ place of establishment and ownership. As part of the submission of offer, the tenderer must submit a self-declaration on compliance with labour clauses, CSR obligations and international sanctions. In this connection, DALO reserves the right, at any time during the tender process, to let the tenderer rectify a missing or inadequately completed self-declaration. DALO has uploaded a template (available in the electronic tender system) which must be used as declaration. Where groups of entities (e.g. consortiums), including temporary joint ventures, participate jointly in the tender procedure, the self-declaration must be submitted separately for each of the participating entities. DALO reserves the right – but is not obliged – to use the remedies provided for in section 159(5) of the Danish Public Procurement Act if offers do not fulfil the requirements of the tender documents. It should be noted that irrespective of the wording of the requirements of the tender documents to the effect that information, declarations and documentation must be submitted, e.g. concerning a description of the deliverables put up for tender, DALO is not prevented from obtaining additional information, etc., pursuant to section 159(5), cf. section 159(6) of the Danish Public Procurement Act. Prior to decision on award of the agreement, DALO requires that the tenderer to whom DALO intends to award the agreement presents documentation for the information stated in the ESPD, see sections 151-155 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. It is a requirement to indicate the names and professional qualifications of the staff responsible for the execution of the service in the offer. It is a requirement, that the currency of the tenderers offer, shall be etiher DKK or EURO.

Hovedpunkterne i proceduren:

As part of its offer, the tenderer must submit the European Single Procurement Document (ESPD). Please note that a tenderer may rely on the capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a subcontractor), irrespective of the legal nature of the relations between the tenderer and the entity or entities on which the tenderer relies. In this case, the tenderer must ensure that an ESPD from the entity or entities on which the tenderer relies is submitted along with the tenderer’s own ESPD. The ESPD of the entity or entities in question must include equivalent information. A tenderer may only submit one offer. The tenderer and, if relevant, the participants in the group of entities and/or entities on which the tenderer relies, must use the ESPD, see section 148 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, as preliminary evidence that the participants are not subject to any of the exclusion grounds set out in sections 135 and 136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, and that the tenderer fulfils the suitability requirements. It is not necessary for the tenderer to sign the ESPD document. If the tenderer is a group of entities (consortiums), the participants not submitting the offer must sign their ESPD document. Any entities relied on must also sign the ESPD.
