If more than 5 applicants fulfill the minimum requirements, cf. Section III, the Contracting Authority will pre-qualify the 5 applicants who are evaluated as most qualified for the specific tendered assignment. Only these applicants will be invited to submit a tender. The selection of the applicants will be based on the submitted references. That is to which extend the reference(s) are assed to be similar to the tendered assignment, cf. Section II.2.4, in terms of comparability and relevance. As a result, the number of references will not be the determining factor alone, but more importantly to which degree the specific forwarded references are comparable and relevant to the tendered assignment regarding solution and scope, especially concerning:

— type of towers,

— scale of consignment.

The supplier must be able to deliver extra towers and stools.

Please note that this is a negotiated procedure. With the exception of mandatory parts, the tender documents may as a result undergo changes as part of the negotiation process.

As part of the request for pre-qualification, the applicant must deliver a ‘European Single Procurement Document’ (also referred to as the ESPD) in which the applicant must provide declarations on the following matters:

— whether the applicant is subject to grounds for exclusion in section 135(1) - (3) of the Danish Public Procurement Act (mandatory grounds for exclusion on participation in criminal organisation, bribery, fraud, terrorist acts, money laundering, child labour, unpaid outstanding debt etc.),

— whether the applicant is subject to grounds for exclusion in Section 136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act (mandatory grounds for exclusion of interest, distortion of competition, gross misrepresentation, etc.).

Request for pre-qualification may only be taken into consideration if the above declarations have been provided in the ESPD. Therefore, declarations cannot be provided in any other manner.

In the case of groups of applicants (consortium), each individual participant in the group must enclose a separate ESPD which includes the abovementioned declarations.

If the applicant relies on the economic and financial standing of other entities (e.g. entities within the same group, including parent companies, affiliates or subsidiaries), each individual entity must enclose a separate ESPD document which includes the abovementioned declarations.

The applicant must submit a completed version of the ESPD. Please see Section VI.3 ‘Additional information’ for further information regarding the ESPD. The application must be submitted through EU-Supply, cf. link in Section I.1 in this TED announcement. Applications not submitted via EU-supply or received after the deadline will not be accepted.

The Contracting Authority reserves the right to request the applicant to supplement, specify or complete the information submitted.

The applicant must confirm the economic ability in the ESPD part IV.B: ‘Economic and financial standing’ with information from the latest annual report regarding the following economic indicators:

1) Equity (total equity incl. share capital, reserves, revaluation, retained earning, etc.);

2) Equity ratio (equity/total assets).

If the applicant is relying on the capacities of one or more other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a subcontractor) or the applicant is a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium) the information for the ESPD part IV.B must also be given in a separate ESPD from each of these entities, cf. Section VI.3 ‘Additional information’. It is the sole responsibility of the applicant to secure that the minimum level(s) of standards required are reached when the applicant is relying on the capacity of other entities or when the applicant is a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium).

Concerning 1: Equity from the latest annual report must be at least 33 pct. of the total expected amount of the contract;

Concerning 2: Equity ratio from the latest annual report must be at least 20 pct. If the equity ratio is between 15 pct. and 20 pct. the applicant can qualify, if Equity exceeds the total expected amount of the contract.

The applicant must include the up to 5 most comparable and relevant references undertaken in the past three (3) years as part of the application. The references must be stated in the ESPD part IV.C: ‘Technical and professional ability’. Undertaken in the past three (3) years implies that the reference must not have been completed prior to the date reached when counting 3 years backwards from the submission date for pre-qualification. References older than this will not be taken into consideration. References which have not yet been fully completed can be included as part of the application, but if this is the case, the applicant must describe the parts which have not yet been delivered, and this may affect the evaluation of the applicant, cf. Section II.2.9.

The references should include:

— a specific description of the work performed for each reference, including: voltage level and scale of consignments,

— contract value (if possible),

— contact information for the entity in question (including contact person),

— date of initiation and final delivery (day, month, year).

Any ambiguities and/or incomprehensibilities concerning the above information may have a negative effect on the selection of candidates, cf. Section II.2.9. Please note the ‘description’ box can contain more text than is visible. I.e. it is possible to copy paste text into the box.

If the applicant is relying on the references of one or more other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a subcontractor) or the applicant is a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium) the information for the ESPD part IV.C must also be given in a separate ESPD from each of these entities.

The number of references should not surpass a maximum of the 5 most comparable and relevant references. If the applicant is relying on the capacity of one or more other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a subcontractor) or the applicant is a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium) the maximum number of references to be submitted must still be respected and cannot exceed 5 when combined. If more than 5 references are submitted, the Contracting Authority will only consider the 5 most recent references determined by date of final delivery (in this case not yet finished references will not be included).

The applicant must submit a completed version of the ESPD. Please see Section VI.3 ‘Additional information’ for further information regarding the ESPD. The application must be submitted through EU-Supply, cf. link in Section I.1 in this notification. Applications not submitted via EU-supply or received after the deadline will not be accepted.

The information is stated in the tender documents.

The applicant must submit a completed ESPD to apply for pre-qualification for this tender procedure. The ESPD for this tender can be found via EU-supply. The ESPD must be completed in EU-Supply and submitted via ‘My Response’.

Please note:

— an applicant participating on its own, but relying on the capacities of one or more other entities (e.g. a parent or sister company or a subcontractor), must ensure that the application includes the applicants own ESPD together with a separate ESPD from each of the entities it relies on with a completed Part II: ‘Information concerning the economic operator’ and Part III: ‘Exclusion grounds’ of the ESPD as well as the relevant information regarding Part IV: ‘Selection criteria’ and Part V: ‘Reduction of the number of qualified candidates’. The ESPD from each of the entities should be duly filled and signed by the entities concerned.

Further where an applicant wants to rely on the capacities of other entities, it shall prove to the Contracting Authority that it will have at its disposal the resources necessary, for example, by producing a commitment by those entities to that effect, which must be submitted as part of the final documentation.

— where groups of economic operators, including temporary associations, participate together in the procurement procedure, a complete separate ESPD for each of the participating economic operators must be submitted.

Further, the final documentation must include a signed declaration by all parties of the group of economic operators (joint venture, consortium or other) stating that all economic operators assume joint and several liabilities towards the Contracting Authority for the performance of the contract as a whole.
