Technical requirements: Danmarks Nationalbank is the central bank of Denmark and is a self-governing, independent institution. Danmarks Nationalbank's 3 main objectives are to contribute to ensuring stable prices, safe payments and a stable financial system. In order to ensure these objectives, Danmarks Nationalbank is using the Calypso system front-to-back across assets as the portfolio management system, and as collateral management system for monetary policy loans. The continuous improvement of the system is handled internally.
As part of the continuous improvement of the Calypso system, configuration in the Calypso system is performed. The Customer is using Calypso version 14 and planning to upgrade to version 16. Documented knowledge on one of these versions is required.
An urgent service is required, and an re-opening of the competition will be initiated between the three suppliers immediately after signing of the framework agreement on the delivery of 2 Calypso Business Analysts preferable from mid February 2019 or soon thereafter. More information is described in the tender documents.
The tenderer must submit the European Single Procurement Document ("ESPD") with the following information:
If the tenderer relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities, the tenderer and the entities in question will be jointly and severally liable for the performance of the contract, see s.144(6) of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
The ESPD serves as provisional documentation that the tenderer fulfils the minimum suitability requirements in respect of economic and financial capacity.
Before the decision to award the Framework Agreement is made, the tenderer to whom the contracting entity intends to award the agreement must submit documentation that the information stated in the ESPD is accurate.
Upon the contracting entity's request, the tenderer must submit the following documentation of economic and financial capacity:
The operator's balance sheet or extracts thereof in the most recent financial report/financial year available if publication of the balance sheet is required under law in the country in which the operator is established, or other documentation of the size of the equity. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium), the information in the most recent financial report/financial year available must be submitted for each participating operator in the group. Where an operator relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent company, a sister company or a subcontractor), information for such other entities must also be provided.
As a minimum requirement, a positive equity is required in the most recent financial year available. If the tenderer relies on the capacity of other entities, the equity is to be calculated as the total equity of the operator and such other entities in the most recent financial year available. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium), the equity is calculated as the total equity of the operators in the most recent financial year available. The information is to be stated in section IV.B of the ESPD.
The Framework Agreement has to the relevant extent incorporated the corporate social responsibility considerations as laid down in the conventions on the basis of which the principles of the UN Global Compact are worded and as laid down in the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.
The Framework Agreement contains requirements that relevant staff who handle tasks in connection with the performance of the agreement must be able to pass security clearance.
Participation in the tendering procedure may only take place by electronic means via the electronic tendering system used by the contracting entity, see the address set out in Section I.3). The tendering procedure is accessed under "Ongoing public procedures". For access to the procurement 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 take place through the electronic tendering system. Questions must be submitted not later than 18.12.2018. 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 answers not later than 6 days before expiry of the application deadline. Questions received later than 6 days before expiry of the deadline cannot expect to be answered.
