Additional information: This tender is cancelled Participation in the tender can only take place electronically via the Contracting Entity's electronic tendering system. To access the tender material, the applicant must be registered or register as a user. If the application contains multiple versions of the same document, the latest uploaded version will be the valid one. All communication related to the tender procedure, including questions and answers, must take place via the electronic tendering system. The Contracting Entity prefers that questions regarding prequalification be submitted no later than 23.05.2025, at 12.00. Questions submitted after this date will be answered if they are received in time for the Contracting Entity to obtain the necessary information and provide answers no later than six days before the application deadline. Questions received later than six days before the deadline cannot be expected to be answered. Interested parties are advised to stay informed via the electronic tendering system. If the applicant experiences problems with the system, support can be contacted via email at
dksupport@eu-supply.com
or by phone. The applicant must submit an ESPD as its application as preliminary proof of the conditions mentioned in Section 148, paragraph 1, numbers 1-3 of the Public Procurement Act, cf. the regulation on procedures for entering into contracts within water and energy supply, transport, and postal services Section 11. It is not necessary for the applicant to sign its ESPD document. If the applicant is a consortium then the applicant must submit a consortium declaration. In the case of a consortium, a separate ESPD must be submitted for each participating economic operator. If the applicant is a consortium, each participant's ESPD document must be signed by the respective participant. It is not necessary for the leading applicant submitting the application to sign its ESPD document. If the applicant relies on the capacity of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for each entity on which it relies, and the ESPD document must be signed by the supporting entity. The applicant must also submit a support declaration in which the entity or entities on which the applicant relies declare to be jointly and severally liable with the applicant if awarded the contract. The template is attached as an appendix to the tender conditions. Before the award decision, the tenderer to whom the Contracting Entity intends to award the contract must provide documentation for the information given in the ESPD in accordance with Sections 151 and 152, paragraph 3 of the Public Procurement Act, cf. the implementation regulation Section 11. This documentation will consist of a Service Certificate "Serviceattest" (issued no earlier than six months before the tender deadline) and annual accounts/auditor's statement for Danish tenderers, cf. the tender conditions. Equivalent documentation will be provided for foreign tenderers. If the application is submitted by a consortium, a correctly completed consortium declaration must also be submitted for the consortium as a whole. If the applicant relies on the economic and financial or technical and professional capacity of supporting entities, the applicant must also submit a correctly completed support declaration in which the supporting entity/entities legally commit to making their resources available. In the event of changes to the composition of the tenderer, the rules in Section 147 of the Public Procurement Act apply in full. The estimated value of the services that can be delivered under the framework agreement is DKK 800 million. The Contracting Entity's estimate of the framework agreement's estimated value is based on the Contracting Entity's expectation of the offered prices, including price adjustments during the contract period. The total maximum value of the services to be delivered under the framework agreement amounts to DKK 1 billion. The difference between the estimated value and the maximum value is due to the uncertainty about the final value of the framework agreement. The estimated value thus reflects the Contracting Entity's estimate of the expected draw on the framework agreement, while the maximum value expresses the highest value of all contracts to be delivered within the framework agreement's duration. This takes into account both the Contracting Entity's expectations based on the most likely draw on the framework agreement and the expected uncertainty associated with this estimate. Regarding the estimated value, it should be noted that tenderers are not guaranteed any minimum draw on the framework agreement, and the stated estimate does not imply a commitment from the Contracting Entity for a minimum draw on the framework agreement. The Contracting Entity may request applicants to supplement, clarify, or complete the application in accordance with Article 76, number 4 of the Utilities Directive if applications or tenders do not meet the formal requirements of the tender material. For information on the negotiation process, refer to the tender conditions. The Contracting Entity will conduct negotiations as described in the tender specifications. The Contracting Entity reserves the right to award based on the initial tender. The tendered framework agreement is not divided into lots. The reason for this is that it is not considered commercially and economically advantageous due to the scope and nature of the framework agreement. Legal basis: Directive 2014/25/EU
