Award criteria: The most economic tender

Technical requirements: This tender comprises the provision of a team of site supervision engineers to perform the Site Supervision for all Structures and foundations for the construction of the new Storstrøm Bridge.
The new 4 km Storstrøm Bridge between Masnedø and Falster will replace the existing bridge from 1937, which is in poor condition and does not have the capacity to carry the increased railway freight traffic resulting from the opening of the Fehmarn Belt Connection.
The bridge comprises approximately 45 viaduct spans of 80 m in length, and 2 navigational spans of 160m each. The main bridge is a cable-stayed bridge, with a single pylon, carrying a double-track electrified railway(200 km/h) for passenger trains) and a two-lane road (80 km/h), as well as a combined cycle and pedestrian path on a single cross section.
This tender comprises the provision of a team of site supervision engineers to perform the Site Supervision for all Structures and foundations.
Submission of a list of the most significant equivalent tasks, see section II.1.4) and II.2.4), II.1.5), carried out by the applicant- commenced, in progress or completed — in the course of the last 5 years according to the date when the applicant was established or started up its business activities.
The requirement for references has been extended from 3 to 5 years to ensure sufficient competition, as the Employer has assessed that only a limited number of similar tasks have been carried out within the last 3 year period.
The Contracting Authority would prefer that the list includes the following: project name, whether the task was carried out as a turnkey contract, a brief description of the task and the role undertaken by the applicant in connection with its performance (including the value of the part of the task for which the applicant was responsible, and information about the applicant's professional contribution to the project), employer (inc. contact details), contract sum and the time of performance of the task. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium), the information is requested to be submitted for each participating operator in the group. If the applicant relies on the capacity of other entities (such as subcontractors, a parent company or sister company etc. or other entities in the group), regardless of the legal nature of the links between the applicant and such other entities, the applicant must provide proof that the applicant has at its disposal the necessary resources from such other entities by producing an undertaking from such entities regarding their obligations in this respect. It must be documented that the entities in question are legally bound towards the applicant. Failing this, the Contracting Authority will not take into account the capacity of other entities. The Contracting Authority has drawn up a template for the undertaking of support that the applicant may use.
As a minimum requirement, the tenderer must have experience in site supervision on a similar construction project within the last 5 years.
In order to constitute a similar construction project the project must concern the construction of a rail or road bridge across open waters, rivers or lakes with a minimum length of 1 km of the part of the bridge over the water.
If the contract is awarded to a group of operators (e.g. a consortium), each participant of the group must undertake joint and several liability and appoint a joint representative.
The candidate must submit as its application 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 candidate relies on the capacity of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for each of the entities on which the candidate relies. Reference is made to the Contracting Authority's ESPD guide.
The candidate will be excluded from participation in the tender procedure if the candidate 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) of the Danish Public Procurement Act, unless the candidate has submitted sufficient documentation of its reliability in accordance with Section 138 of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
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.
As regards section II.1.5), it should be noted that the amount is an estimate of the expected contract price for the entire duration of the contract, including the price of all options.
