Zusätzliche Angaben

This procedure is a Qualification Procedure. The Employer will evaluate incoming applications latest at the end of each quarter.

The outcome of this procedure is a pool of qualified suppliers.

The Employer reserves the right to update any document for qualification, especially HSE documents. The interested party will need to take the updated document into consideration and base the application and bid on it.

When the Employer has a specific project demand, the RFQ will be sent to the qualified suppliers. With this RFQ the awarding criteria and project specific requirements will be announced.

The suppliers will quote based on these RFQs.

The Employer will reduce the amount of bidders invited to negotiations to 3 - 5 bidders according to the Awarding Criteria.

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Interested companies can contact the contracting authority with questions via the ARIBA platform. If the questions or answers are of general interest, they will be made available in anonymized form via the message function of the ARIBA platform. All interested companies or applicants are obliged to take the questions and answers into account when drafting their application. Non-compliance may lead to exclusion from the procedure.

--------------------------

---------------

General explanations of the contents of the request for participation:

- The Employer reserves the right to request the last audited annual report or a financial statement (not older than 6 months) available from the applicant.

- Bidding consortia: Together with the request to participate, these must submit a joint bidder declaration signed in a legally binding manner by all members and completed in full.

Particular attention must be paid to the aspect of compliance of the formation of the bidding consortium with antitrust law. Each member of the bidding consortium must submit the declarations and evidence required under items III.1.1) and II.1.2). This applies to a limited extent to the declarations and evidence under III.1.3) if the joint bidding arrangement provides for a division of tasks and, in this respect, e.g. certain references can only be submitted by one member of the joint bidding arrangement; any limited submission of declarations and evidence must be explained exhaustively by the joint bidding arrangement in an annex to the joint bidding arrangement declaration. In all other respects, the same rules apply to joint applicants as to applicants.

- Other companies: Applicants may use other companies to prove their suitability (suitability loan).

In this case, the other company must submit a declaration of commitment stating that it will provide a specifically defined partial service for the applicant in the event of an order. Both companies which lend suitability to the applicant (suitability lender and subcontractor) and - insofar as such information is already possible with the application - such other companies which the applicant would otherwise like to provide for the performance of the service (subcontractor) shall be summarized in a list where the name and registered office of the other company as well as the part of the service for which the other company is intended is formulated.
