The Platform should support and enhance the existing DRTV applications for streaming but also upholds the unwavering DR’s public service commitment. DR aims to significantly bolster our competitive stance in the rapidly expanding landscape of TV and streaming services. DR seeks a Platform that not only fosters exceptional user experiences, but also offers a well proven and solid framework for personalization and content management. DR’s platform of choice must facilitate effortless configuration of design, navigation, and content based on audience behaviour as well as empowering DR’s editorial teams to tailor an exceptional DRTV-experience, to all types of End-Users, from children, youngsters, teens, adults to seniors. DR’s success metrics revolve around effectively attracting and retaining the users. To achieve this, the Platform must support best of breed in user engagement and focus on minimizing churn. It is DR’s vision to achieve greater flexibility, market adaptability, get enhanced decision-making capabilities, and heightened competitiveness. DR aims to strike for the perfect and harmonious balance between standardization and bespoke development. The goal is to have a Platform that provides a framework to create a personalized streaming product making the time worth spend on DRTV. This should be supported by the integration to external recommendation engines as well as orchestrating and manually curation of content. DR aims to utilize the Platform to empower the editorial teams, with tools to customize a tailored digital experience. DR wants a flexible Platform which makes it easy to configure design, navigation, layout and ingest content behaviour to increase engagement and decrease churn, within the Platform. The Platform needs to integrate easily via well-documented APIs with other systems as it will be part of our existing tech- and eco-environment stack. The Platform serves as a central hub for planning, ingesting, managing, and showcasing/distributing videos and content to the End-user. Thus, the Platform serves as a control center for the Platform-workflow, and it is DR's ambition to create a well-founded Platform to ensure better integration, flexibility, and adaptability of DR’s apps.The main services (A-C) under the Contract are:A. Delivery of a Platform: A complete delivery of the Platform (as described above), including the necessary functionality, API and integrations B. Implementation of the Platform; a complete implementation of the Platform with the underlying implementation activities, including complying with the time schedule, establishment of the cooperation and test of the Platform C. Continuing services: Delivery of Operation, Maintenance and Support of the Platform while complying with service levels and processes. Furthermore, the Supplier shall – if ordered by DR – deliver Ordered Services under the Contract, including Adaptions and Consultancy Services.servicesAn information meeting will be held at May the 7th 2024 at the address Emil Holms Kanal 20. For practical reasons, operators interested in participating in the meeting are asked to sign up via the electronic tendering system not later than 3 days before the meeting with indication of name of business and number of participants. The contracting entity may reduce the number of par-ticipants per business. The contracting entity will draw up brief minutes of the information meeting which will be announced to all tenderers participating in the tender procedure via the electronic tendering system. DR has assessed that the Platform and Related Services is connected services that aren’t suitable for division. The Platform is a single backend solution, and the Related Services is directly related to ensuring the operation and performance of the Platform. The contract is not divided into lots due to the objective of having a clear and unambiguous contractual relationship, where the overall responsibility for the Platform and the Services is placed with one supplier in order to ensure the highest possible quality, including efficient management, at the lowest possible price. Given that the Platform in ques-tion is relatively complex, DR believes that this objective would not be met by offering the services into lots. Instead, it is necessary to tender out the delivery and implementation of the Platform and the associated operation, maintenance, etc., to the same supplier. This approach, in the contracting authority’s assessment, ensures the most effective implementation and overall operation of the Platform. The contract has incorporated the corporate social responsibility considerations, as appropriate, as laid down in the conventions on the basis of which the principles of the UN Global Compact are worded and as laid down in the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. The contract furthermore lays down requirements pursuant to ILO Convention no. 94 on labour clauses in public contracts and Circular no. 9471 of 30 June 2014. The contract lays down requirements on compliance with the law on processing of personal data. If the contract is awarded to a group of operators (such as a consortium), the participants of the group must undertake joint and several liability and appoint a joint representative. Participation in the tender procedure may only take place by electronic means via the electronic tendering system used by the contracting entity. For access to the tender documents, the tenderer must be registered or register as a user. If the tender contains several versions of the same document, the latest uploaded version will apply. All communication in connection with the tender procedure, including questions and answers, must take place through the electronic tendering system. Questions must be submitted not later than the 22nd of May 2024. Questions asked after this date will be answered if they are received in time for the contracting entity to provide the information required and communicate the answers not later than six days before expiry of the application dead-line. Questions received later than six days before expiry of the deadline cannot expect to be answered unless the deadline is also postponed. Before the award decision is made, the tenderer to whom the contracting entity intends to award the contract must provide documentation of the information submitted in the ESPD pursuant to sections 151-152, cf. section 153 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. As an alternative to the documentation mentioned in sections 153-155, 157 and 158 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, the applicant and tenderer may submit to the contract-ing entity a certificate of registration in an official list of approved economic operators, see section 156 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, issued by the competent authority. The contracting entity only accepts certifi-cates of registration in an official list from applicants and tenderers established in the country holding the official list. The candidate must as its application submit an ESPD as preliminary documentation of the circumstances set out in section 148(1), paras 1-3 of the Danish Public Procurement Act (udbudsloven), and section 137(1) para 2 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. It is not necessary for the tenderer to sign the ESPD document. For groups of operators (e.g., a consortium), a separate ESPD must be submitted for each participating operator. Where the tenderer is a group of operators, the ESPD document of each participant in the group must be signed by the participant in question. The tenderer heading the group and submitting the tender is not re-quired to sign its ESPD document. If the tenderer relies on the capacities of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for and signed by each of the entities on which the tenderer relies. In this procedure, the candidate may rely on the technical and/or financial capacity of other operators to fulfil the suitability requirements, including for the purpose of selection. The operator(s) making its/their technical and/or financial capacity available to the candidate must sign a letter of commitment, see further in the tender specifi-cations. The form is enclosed as an attachment to the tender specifications. The candidate must also submit a letter of commitment in which the entity/entities on which the candidate relies has/have undertaken joint and several liability with the candidate if the candidate is awarded the contract. The form is enclosed as an attachment to the tender specifications. The candidate will be excluded from participation in the tender procedure if the candidate is subject to the compulsory grounds for exclusion set out in sections 134 a, 135 and 136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, and the exclusion grounds stated in the Danish Public Procurement Act, section 137(1), para 2, unless the candidate has submitted sufficient documentation of its reliability in accordance with section 138 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. The voluntary grounds for exclusion are applied while complying with the principle of proportionality. Hence, trivial matters cannot result in the exclusion of the candidate. Several matters which, individually, are less seri-ous in nature may, however, give rise to exclusion of the candidate. -o0o- It should be noted that the estimated contract value stated in this notice is an estimate of the expected contract price for the entire term of the contract. The estimate is based on the knowledge obtained during the market analysis and a following calculation of the needed services, including the knowledge from the existing contact.

In addition to the indicated duration of contract, an expiry phase that is flexible in time will be required when the contract is at an end in order to ensure an undisturbed continuation of the Platform in connection with a possible re-tender.480000007200000072210000722200007231000072320000anyw-eeaLOT-0000ef-standSpecific yearly turnoverThe candidate must submit the European Single Procurement Document ("ESPD") with the following information: The candidate's total annual turnover in the latest financial year available In this procedure, the candidate may rely on the economic and financial capacity of other operators to fulfil the suitability requirements. The operator(s) making its /their economic and financial capacity available to the candidate must sign a letter of commitment, see further in the tender specifications. The form is enclosed as an attachment to the tender specifications. If the candidate relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities in relation to the fulfilment of minimum requirements, see below, the candidate and the entities in question will be required by the contracting entity to undertake joint and several liability for the performance of the contract. The ESPD serves as provisional documentation that the candidate fulfils the minimum suitability requirements in respect of economic and financial capacity. Before the award decision is made, the tenderer to whom the contracting entity intends to award the contract must submit documentation that the information stated in the ESPD is accurate.Upon the contracting entity's request, the following documentation of economic and financial capacity must be submitted: A statement regarding the operator's overall turnover in the most recent annual report/financial statement available, depending on when the operator was set up or started trading if the figures for this turnover are available. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium), the information in the most recent annual report/financial statement available must be submitted for each participating operator in the group. Where an operator relies on the eco-nomic and financial capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent company, a sister company or a subcontractor), in-formation for such other entities must be provided as well. As a minimum requirement, a total annual turnover of at least DKK 10 million is required in the most recent annual report/financial statement available. If the candidate relies on the capacities of other entities, the turnover is to be calculated as the total turnover of the candidate and such other entities in the most recent annual re-port/financial statement available.

The information is to be stated in section IV.B of the ESPD.usedsui-actn-usedtp-abilFor service contracts: performance of services of the specified typeThe candidate must submit the ESPD with the following information: A list of the (up to) 5 most significant comparable services, that the candidate has carried out in the latest 3 years before the expiry of the deadline for application of tender. Only references relating to services carried out at the time of application will be given importance in the evalua-tion of which candidates have documented the most relevant deliveries. Hence, in the case of an ongoing task, only the part of the services already performed at the time of application will be included in the evaluation of the reference. Each reference is requested to include a brief description of the deliveries made. The description of the delivery should include a clear description of the services to which the delivery related and the candidate's role(s) in the performance of the delivery. The reference is furthermore requested to include the financial value of the delivery (amount), the date of delivery and the name of the customer (recipient). When indicating the date of the delivery, the candidate is requested to indicate the date of commencement and finalisation of the delivery. If this is not possible, for example if the tasks were performed on a continuous basis under a framework agreement, the candidate is asked to indicate how the date is specified.No more than 5 references may be stated, irrespective of whether the candidate is a single operator, whether the candidate relies on the technical capacity of other entities or is a group of operators (e.g. a consortium). Where more than five references are stated, only the most recent five references will be taken into account. Any addi-tional references will be disregarded. If it is not possible to decide which references are the most recent five references, the references will be selected by drawing lots. If the candidate relies on the professional qualifications or professional experience of other entities for the per-formance of specific parts of the services comprised by the contract, such specific parts of the services under the contract must be performed by the entity on which the candidate relies.The ESPD serves as provisional documentation of the candidate's compliance with the selection criterion and any minimum suitability requirements. Before the award decision is made, the tenderer to whom the contracting entity intends to award the contract must submit documentation that the information stated in the ESPD is accurate. No additional documentation of technical and professional capacity will be required from the candidate. However, the contracting entity reserves the right to contact the candidate or the customer stated in the reference for verification of the information stated in the reference, including the dates of the reference indicated.usedtp-abilusednot-allowedno-eu-funds2024/22non-restricted-documenthttps://www.ethics.dk/ethics/eo#/1fcfd246-39c1-47c0-9f87-98b93b34df8f/publicMaterialnonerequirednonot-allowedper-exa40qualityPlatformIs evaluated on the basis of an overall assessment of the offered Platform.

Questions asked after this date will be answered if they are received in time for the contracting entity to provide the information required and communicate the answers not later than six days before expiry of the application dead-line. Questions received later than six days before expiry of the deadline cannot expect to be answered unless the deadline is also postponed. Before the award decision is made, the tenderer to whom the contracting entity intends to award the contract must provide documentation of the information submitted in the ESPD pursuant to sections 151-152, cf. section 153 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. As an alternative to the documentation mentioned in sections 153-155, 157 and 158 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, the applicant and tenderer may submit to the contract-ing entity a certificate of registration in an official list of approved economic operators, see section 156 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, issued by the competent authority. The contracting entity only accepts certifi-cates of registration in an official list from applicants and tenderers established in the country holding the official list. The candidate must as its application submit an ESPD as preliminary documentation of the circumstances set out in section 148(1), paras 1-3 of the Danish Public Procurement Act (udbudsloven), and section 137(1) para 2 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. It is not necessary for the tenderer to sign the ESPD document. For groups of operators (e.g., a consortium), a separate ESPD must be submitted for each participating operator. Where the tenderer is a group of operators, the ESPD document of each participant in the group must be signed by the participant in question. The tenderer heading the group and submitting the tender is not re-quired to sign its ESPD document. If the tenderer relies on the capacities of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for and signed by each of the entities on which the tenderer relies. In this procedure, the candidate may rely on the technical and/or financial capacity of other operators to fulfil the suitability requirements, including for the purpose of selection. The operator(s) making its/their technical and/or financial capacity available to the candidate must sign a letter of commitment, see further in the tender specifi-cations. The form is enclosed as an attachment to the tender specifications. The candidate must also submit a letter of commitment in which the entity/entities on which the candidate relies has/have undertaken joint and several liability with the candidate if the candidate is awarded the contract. The form is enclosed as an attachment to the tender specifications. The candidate will be excluded from participation in the tender procedure if the candidate is subject to the compulsory grounds for exclusion set out in sections 134 a, 135 and 136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, and the exclusion grounds stated in the Danish Public Procurement Act, section 137(1), para 2, unless the candidate has submitted sufficient documentation of its reliability in accordance with section 138 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. The voluntary grounds for exclusion are applied while complying with the principle of proportionality. Hence, trivial matters cannot result in the exclusion of the candidate. Several matters which, individually, are less seri-ous in nature may, however, give rise to exclusion of the candidate. -o0o- It should be noted that the estimated contract value stated in this notice is an estimate of the expected contract price for the entire term of the contract.
