Procedure

Title : Negotiated procedure of Contract regarding the construction of electric ferries

Description : This procedure concerns the procurement of five (5) Shipbuilding Contracts for the construction and acquisition of one (1) electric standard ferry for each of the five Danish municipalities (Contracting Entities), according to a standardised ferry concept, as further specified in the Contract Appendix 1.1 (General Technical Requirements) and sub-appendices. The ferries will operate in the following Municipalities and be of the following types: - Aalborg Municipality (type: 40/12) for the ferry crossing Hals to Egense. - Svendborg Municipality (type: 37/10) for the ferry crossing Svendborg to Skarø and Drejø. - Slagelse Municipality (type: 37/10) for the ferry crossing Stigsnæs to Omø. - Odder Municipality (type: 37/10) for the ferry crossing Hou to Tunø. - Faaborg-Midtfyn Municipality (type: 37/10) for the ferry crossing Faaborg to Lyø and Avernakø. The type designations 40/12 and 37/10 indicate the respective length and width of the ferry in question. Each municipality will enter into an individual Shipbuilding Contract; however, each municipality reserves the right not to enter a Shipbuilding Contract due to political decisions within the municipality.

Procedure identifier : 86d67ca8-1400-4442-843a-d90750e7d47e

Type of procedure : Negotiated with prior publication of a call for competition / competitive with negotiation

The procedure is accelerated : no

Main features of the procedure : The procurement procedure will be conducted as a negotiated procedure and will be carried out in two phases 1) a prequalification phase, and 2) an initial tendering and negotiation phase, including up to two negotiation rounds with subsequent submission of a final tender. Only prequalified applicants will be invited to submit an initial tender in the tendering and negotiation phase. The Contracting Entities intend to prequalify up to five (5) applicants. The Contracting Entities will arrange for an information meeting where they will present the scope of the Contract, cf. the Tender Condtion section 1.11.2. The Contracting Entities reserve the right to extend the negotiations so that the procedure comprises more than one round of negotiations and/or more tendering rounds. The Contracting Entities will notify the Tenderers about any such further procedure. The Contracting Entities will not reduce the number of tenderers during the negotiation procedure. The Contracting Entities also reserve the right to move the process forward, if possible. However, the Tenderers will always be given an appropriate deadline for submitting the final tender. The final tenders are legally binding for 4 months from the day of the deadline for submission of the tender (validity period). The Contracting Entities will not pay a remuneration to applicants/tenderers who participate in the procurement procedure. The Contracting Entities have decided not to divide the Contract into separate lots, cf. section 49(2) of the Danish Public Procurement Act. Based on the financial circumstances, the Contracting Entities have estimated that more favourable prices can be achieved with one tenderer being awarded the entire Contract (all five Shipbuilding Contracts). The Contracting Entities have assessed that – due to the market conditions, including the quality and especially the coherence of the five Shipbuilding Contracts – dividing the Contract into separate lots will not give more companies, including SMEs, the opportunity to submit tenders.

Section 151(2) of the Danish Public Procurement Act. The Contracting Entities are entitled, but not obliged, to request the tenderer, the association’s participants or other entities to supplement or specify the received documentation, see Section 151(4) of the Danish Public Procurement Act. To document that the tenderer is not subject to the grounds for exclusion stipulated in sections 135-137 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, the Contracting Entities expect to ask the Tenderer to submit the following: - An extract from the relevant register or a similar document issued by a competent judicial or administrative authority stating that the tenderer is not subject to the grounds for exclusion stipulated in section 135(1), and - A certificate issued by the competent authority in the country referred to as documentation that the tenderer is not subject to the grounds for exclusion stipulated in the cases stated in section 135(3).

If the tenderer, one or more of the participants in the association or other entities is established outside of Denmark, the types of documentation stated in e-Certis must generally be submitted. E-Certis is an online information system which is to be used to find the right documentation to be used by EU Member States in connection with procurement procedures. If the country in question does not issue the relevant certificates or documents, or if the issued certificates or documents do not cover all the relevant cases, they can be replaced by a sworn declaration on oath. If such a sworn declaration on oath is not used in the country in question, a solemn declaration. The official certificate may not be older than six months at the deadline for submission of the prequalification application. The tenderer shall not provide documentation for not being subject to the mandatory ground for exclusion set out in section 134 a. ------------------------------------------- In relation to documentation of the economic and financial standing, the applicant is required to provide the following: Concluded annual reports or equivalent documentation stating the tenderer's economic and financial standing in accordance with the minimum requirements for the three (3) most recently concluded financial years at the deadline for submission of the application for prequalification. If an annual report is not required under the law of the country in which the applicant is established or if the applicant’s annual report doesn’t contain the required information, a declaration from the tenderers’s external accountant is accepted as equivalent documentation. ------------------------------------------------ The Contracting Entities shall exclude economic operators, which are subject to EU sanctions in accordance with EU regulation 833/2014 with later amendments, Article 5k. The tenderer must submit a completed, dated and signed Appendix C – Solemn Declaration concerning Russia.
