DALO has decided not to divide the contract into lots due to the fact that the tender is limited in scope of supplies and further subdivision into lots is not relevant.
The tenderer must use the European Single Procurement Document (electronic version, hereafter ESPD) and provide the following information in the ESPD:
A list of the most important similar deliveries (references), cf. section II.1.4) and II.2.4), carried out within the past 3 (three) years, prior to the deadline for the submission of the offer, 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 as described in section II.1.4) and II.2.4). The description should also include a description of the tenderers 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 tenderer is asked to provide as much generic information as possible about the delivery). When specifying the date for the deliveries, the tenderer 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 submission of the offer will be considered when assessing if the minimum requirement for suitability stated below is ful-filled. If the delivery in question is ongoing, it is only the part of the supplies carried out within the past 3 (three) years and completed at the time of the deadline for submission of the offer which will be included in the assessment of the delivery (reference). Consequently, if a part of the supplies has not been carried out within the past 3 (three) years, or if a part of the supplies has not been completed at the time of the deadline for submission of the offer, this particular part will not be included in the assessment of the delivery (reference). Therefore, it is important that the tenderer clearly states which part (e.g. with regards to size, value, quantity or volume etc.) of an ongoing delivery (reference) that has been carried out within the past 3 (three) years.
The list must contain a maximum of 5 previous deliveries whether the tenderer 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.
A tenderer may rely on the technical and professional capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a sub supplier), 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 shall ensure that an ESPD from the entity or entities on which the tenderer relies is submitted along with the tenderers own ESPD. The entity or entities’ ESPD must equally provide the information listed above. The tenderer will not be required to present further documentation for the technical and professional capacity (i.e. the information stated in the ESPD is considered sufficient). However, DALO reserves the right to contact the tenderer 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.
The tenderer must demonstrate experience with as a minimum 1 similar delivery within the past 3 years, prior to the deadline for submission of the offer. A similiar delivery meaning delivery of SAD system.
Reference is made to the tender documents regarding payment terms. Invoicing must be done in accordance with the applicable Danish legislation on public payments. At present, this is Danish consolidation act. no. 798 of June 2007 which requires electronic invoicing. Exact terms are stated in the contract.
No particular legal form is required. If the contract is awarded to a group of suppliers (e.g. a consortium), the participants shall undertake joint and several liabilities and to appoint one supplier to represent the group. The contract must be conducted in consideration of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and it contains a labour clause, please see the contract clause 3.10 for further information.
The use of the ESPD is a precondition for participation in the procurement procedure, cf. § 148 of the Public Procurement Act. DALO shall require that the tenderer apply the ESPD as preliminary evidence that the tenderer is not subject to the grounds of exclusion stipulated in §§ 135 and 136 of the said Act and that the tenderer fulfils the minimum requirements for suitability fixed in accordance with § 140, cf. section III.1.3).
The tenderers and, if relevant, the participants in the group of entities and/or supporting entities, must use the electronic version of the ESPD. DALO has prepared an ESPD (an XML-file) available at Ethics. DALO strongly encourages the tenderer to use this XML-file when completing the ESPD. The tenderer must upload the XML-file to this website https://ec.europa.eu/growth/tools-databases/espd/welcome where the ESPD can be completed and later exported. No other versions than the EPSD must be used.
Prior to decision on award of the contract, DALO shall require that the tenderer to whom DALO intends to award the contract presents documentation for the information stated in the ESPD, cf. §§ 151-155 of the said Act. If a tenderer relies on the capacity of other entities, cf. section III.1.3, the tenderer shall upon request provide statements of support or other documentation proving that the tenderer has access to the necessary technical and professional capacity, and that the entity referred to has a legal obligation to the tenderer. If such documentation is not provided, DALO cannot consider the technical and professional capacity of the other entity or entities. DALO has prepared a template to be used to confirm the legal obligation which is available at Ethics. DALO strongly encourages the tenderers to use this form. However, it is emphasized that it is the sole responsibility of the tenderer that the information provided fulfils the requirements
DALO shall exclude a tenderer from participation in the procurement procedure, if the tenderer is subject to one of the compulsory grounds for exclusion in §§ 135 and 136 of the said Act unless the tenderer has provided sufficient documentation that the tenderer is reliable in accordance to § 138 of the said Act. Please note that certain voluntary exclusion grounds in Directive 2014/24/EU on public procurement have been made compulsory in § 136 of the said Act.
