The tendered framework agreement has not been divided into lots, see section 49(2) of the Danish Public Procurement Act, as it is the Contracting Authority's assessment that the tendered tasks have a character and interrelationship that makes them best handled by one Supplier for reasons of optimization regarding quality, responsibility, and resources.

List and brief description of selection criteria:

The Tenderer must submit the European Single Procurement Document (“ESPD”) with the following information:

When required by the Contracting Authority, the Tenderer must submit the following documentation of economic and financial capacity:

A statement regarding the operator's overall turnover in the most recent financial year available, depending on the date when the operator was set up or started trading, as far as the information on these turnovers is available. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium), the information must be submitted for each participating operator in the group. Where an operator relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent company, sister company or a sub-contractor), the information must be submitted for these entities also.

Minimum level(s) of standards possibly required:

The minimum requirement for a Tenderer's economic and financial capacity is:

- overall turnover of at least 3 000 000 DKK in the most recent financial year available,

A Tenderer to whom a ground for exclusion applies is excluded from participating in the tender, unless the Tenderer has provided sufficient documentation of its reliability in accordance with section 138 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. The Contracting Authority may only exclude a Tenderer if the contracting authority has informed the Tenderer that a ground for exclusion applies to it and if it has not within an appropriate time limit provided sufficient documentation of its reliability (self-cleaning). For information on what constitutes sufficient documentation, see section 138(3) of the Danish Public Procurement Act.

By way of documentation that a Tenderer does not fall within the scope of one of the grounds for exclusion set out in section 135(1) and (3) and section 137(1)(ii) and (vii), the following must be provided in accordance with section 153 of the Danish Public Procurement Act:

- where the country in question does not issue such documentation, or where these do not cover all the cases specified in section 135(1) or (3) and section 137(1) (ii) and (vii), they may be replaced by a declaration on oath or, in countries where there is no provision for declarations on oath, by a solemn declaration made before a competent judicial authority etc.

For Danish tenderers, documentation may be provided in the form of a service certificate. Where a Tenderer, one or more members of a group or other entities are from another EU/EEA country, such entity must generally provide the types of documentation specified in e-Certis.

Section 134 a in the Danish Public Procurement Act has been made mandatory from the 1th of July 2022. Section 134 a has the following wording (translation by the Contracting Authority):

“A contracting authority must exclude an applicant or tenderer from participating in the tender if the applicant or tenderer is based in a country listed in the EU list of uncooperative tax juridictions and has not acceded to the WTO's Government Procurement Agreement or other trade agreements that oblige Denmark to open up the market for public contracts to tenderers established in the country in question.”

The estimated total price is the contracting entity’s best estimate and includes both optional years.

(2) 30 calendar days, calculated from the date after the date when the contracting authority notified the affected tenderers that a contract based on a framework agreement with reopening of competition or a dynamic purchasing system has been entered into, if the notification contained a statement of the reasons for the decision.

(3) six months of the contracting authority having entered into a framework agreement, counted from the date after the date when the contracting authority notified the affected candidates and tenderers, see section 2(2) of the Act, or section 171(4) of the Danish Public Procurement Act.

(4) 20 calendar days calculated from the date after the contracting authority has announced its decision, see section 185(2), second sentence, of the Danish Public Procurement Act.

If a contracting authority has complied with the procedure outlined in section 4 of the Act to ensure that a contract is not declared void, see section 7(3) of the Act, an application for a review of whether the contracting authority has entered into a contract in contravention of the Public Procurement Directive without prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union must be filed with the Danish Complaints Board for Public Procurement within 30 calendar days calculated from the date after the date when the contracting authority has published a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union stating that the contracting authority has entered into a contract, provided that the notice contains the reasons for the contracting authority’s decision to award the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Not later than on the date of the filing of an application for a review procedure with the Danish Complaints Board for Public Procurement, the applicant must notify the contracting authority in writing that an application for a review procedure has been filed with the Danish Complaints Board for Public Procurement, see section 6(4) of the Act.
