Technical requirements: The selected tenderer must, in cooperation with Energinet's supervisory authority and project organization, ensure quality assurance of all written documentation in connection with the construction work for compressor station Everdrup. The consultant must assist in planning all quality assurance activities. The consultant's primary activities are carried out during the construction phase from March 2020 until all construction activities have been completed by the end of 2021. The consultants must also ensure that the contractor prepares the necessary as-built documentation as a basis for issuing a commissioning permit from the Everdrup compressor station. The consultant must supervise the following main activities:
The contract for engineering support Baltic Pipe D1 can be extended until the constructions are finalized. Construction contracts are expected to be completed during Q4 2021.
If more than 3 applicants fulfill the minimum requirements, cf. Section III), the contracting authority will pre-qualify the 3 applicants who are evaluated as most qualified for the specific tendered assignment. Only these applicants will be invited to submit a tender. The selection of the applicants will be based on the submitted references. That is to which extend the reference(s) are assessed to be similar to the tendered assignment, cf. Section II.2.4), in terms of comparability and relevance. As a result, the number of references will not be the determining factor alone, but more importantly to which degree the specific forwarded references are comparable and relevant to the tendered assignment regarding solution and scope, especially concerning:
— that the references submitted — collectively or separately — document relevant experience with the execution of design and quality assurance services within 4 main activities (Process safety engineering, process engineering, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering),
— that the references provided document the experience of supervisory activities on larger, complex construction projects,
— that the references provided document experience with design and quality assurance activities on projects relating to the establishment of compressor station.
Please note that this is a negotiated procedure. With the exception of mandatory parts, the tender documents may as a result undergo changes as part of the negotiation process.
The applicant must confirm the economic ability in the ESPD part IV.B: ‘Economic and financial standing’ with information from the latest annual report regarding the following economic indicators:
If the applicant is relying on the capacities of 1 or more other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a subcontractor) or the applicant is a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium) the information for the ESPD part IV.B must also be given in a separate ESPD from each of these entities, cf. Section VI.3 ‘Additional information’. It is the sole responsibility of the applicant to secure that the minimum level(s) of standards required are reached when the applicant is relying on the capacity of other entities or when the applicant is a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium).

The references must be stated in the ESPD part IV.C: ‘Technical and professional ability’. Undertaken in the past 5 years implies that the reference must not have been completed prior to the date reached when counting 5 years backwards from the submission date for pre-qualification. References older than this will not be taken into consideration. References which have not yet been fully completed can be included as part of the application, but if this is the case, the applicant must describe the parts which have not yet been delivered and this may affect the evaluation of the applicant, cf. Section II.2.9).
— a specific description of the work performed for each reference, including: design and quality assurance work, including what specific activities within the 4 main areas (process safety engineering; process engineering; mechanical engineering and electrical engineering) the applicant has carried out under the reference,
— indication of whether the reference relates to design and quality assurance services for a construction project concerning: compressor station,
