5.1.10 Award criteria

Criterion :
Type : Price
Name : Price
Description : In order to determine which offer is the most economically advantageous, DALO will use a scoring model with fixed financial frame to compile the sub-criterion “Price”. The tenderers’ offer will be evaluated for price and will be given points on a scale from 0 to 10. 10 is the maximum points. DALO will calculate an Evaluation Price for each offer. The offer with the lowest Evaluation Price will be awarded 10 points. The lowest Evaluation Price refers to the lowest calculated Evaluation Price among all compliant offers. The lowest Evaluation Price will be used as reference point, awarding points on a linear model, where 0 points will be awarded for an Evaluation Price 100 % or more above the lowest Evaluation Price. The Evaluation Price of all other offers are awarded points through linear interpolation between the aforementioned absolute values. The awarded points are multiplied with the weighting of the sub-criterion. Points may be awarded as decimal numbers with one decimal place.
Category of award threshold criterion : Weight (percentage, exact)
Award criterion number : 30
Criterion :
Type : Quality
Name : Quality
Description : The offers’ fulfillment of the qualitative sub-criteria will be evaluated in accordance with the description below. The offers’ will be given points on a scale from 0 to 10. 10 is the maximum points. Points may be awarded as decimal numbers with one decimal place. When evaluating the sub-criterion "Quality" DALO will emphasize the extent to which: • The tenderer offers a SPC unit that is designed to enhance operational reliability o For example, it will be evaluated positively if the SPC unit can accept updates to support new capabilities without affecting the operation of the Multi-Link System. o For example, it will be evaluated positively if the SPC unit can accept updates to sup-port new waveforms without having to make any changes to the hardware. • The tenderer offers a compact and compatible technical setup. o For example, it will be evaluated positively if the SPC unit does not occupy a lot of space in the rack. o For example, it will be evaluated positively if the SPC unit supports interfaces for precise time and frequency transfer – for example the Time of Day (“TOD”) in the Extended Have Quick format as defined in STANAG 4430 or equivalent. • Measures are offered to support transparency and traceability in configurations and updates. o For example, it will be evaluated positively if supplied interfaces and manuals are configuration controlled for identification and changes are traceable through change control. The entire sub-criterion “Quality” will be presented as one single score on a scale from 0 to 10 points. The awarded points are multiplied with the weighting of the sub-criterion. The proposal should contain information that enables the contracting authority to evaluate the proposal.

It will also be evaluated positively if as many SPC units as possible are delivered quickly. o For example, it will be evaluated positively if the tenderer offers reliable initiatives to support DALOs implementation of the SPC units for example by instigating initial Government Over Private Equity (GOPE) for Third Party Transfer (TPT) or, if appro-priate for US companies, apply for a Technical Assistance Agreement (TAA) as early as possible. The entire sub-criterion “Delivery plan” will be presented as one single score on a scale from 0 to 10 points. The awarded points are multiplied with the weighting of the sub-criterion.

Approximate value of the framework agreements : 48 800 000 Danish krone
Direct award :
Justification for direct award : The contract can be provided only by a particular economic operator because of an absence of competition for technical reasons
Other justification : A LINK 22 system requires a combat management system which - through various components - enables the exchange of data on a radio network. The LINK 22 SPC's are one of the key components that enables the system to function as intended. The LINK 22 SPC specifications are owned by a single entity, and the SPC units are only being produced by a single commercial entity under license in the inner market. The SPC units needs to be interoperable with LINK 22 and the only supplier on the inner market is Elbit Systems Deutchsland. This assesment has been verified by the abovementioned owner of the SPC specifications. As a consequence, DALO may award the contract by a negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice, cf. Directive 2009/81, article 28, section 1, litra e.
