Meter container units for measurement of the gas mass flow are part of the reverse flow plant design. Therefore, the Contracting Authority intends to purchase meter container units for measurement of the gas mass flow are part of the reverse flow plant design.

For further details regarding the purchase, reference is made to the tender documents.

The tendered framework agreement has a duration of 4 years. The framework agreement can be extended for 2x2 years. Orders under the framework agreement will be allocated directly to the supplier which, in the view of the Contracting Authority, has submitted the most economically advantageous tender, see section 4.1.

The estimated consumption during the term of the framework agreement is expected to amount to seven (10) meter container units in total. The estimated number of units is the following: 
- Two (2) meter container units each for ID 1, ID 2, and ID 3.b
- One (1) meter container unit each for ID 3.c, ID 4, ID 6, and ID 7

The framework agreement consists of an initial call-off of two (2) meter container units, each of the following: ID 2, ID 3.b or ID 3.c. The initial call-off of two (2) meter container units will be awarded on the basis of the award of the framework agreement to the tenderer that achieves the highest score, cf. section 4.2. 

Following the abovementioned orders, four (4) meter container units are expected to be ordered, which is expected to be one of each of the following: ID 4, ID 6, ID 1, and ID 7.

The value of the framework agreement is expected to amount to EUR 6.500.000.

The consumption figures are estimates only and are consequently not binding for the Contracting Authority. During the specified period, the Contracting Authority has the right to purchase the services and/or goods comprised by the framework agreement from the selected tenderer, but is not obligated to do so, cf. the framework sec. 1.3.</cbc:Description><cbc:ProcurementTypeCode listName="contract-nature">supplies</cbc:ProcurementTypeCode><cbc:Note languageID="ENG">It should be noted that this is a negotiated procedure. With the exception of basic elements, changes may be made to tender documents and their contents as a consequence as part of the negotiation process. The tenderer's legal form is not required.

If you wish to apply to participate in this tender process, the corresponding ESPD must be filled in. The ESPD for this tender process can be found in EU-Supply. 

The ESPD must be filled in in EU-Supply, after which it is submitted via "My answer". Guidelines for completing the ESPD can be found on the website of the Konkurrence- og Forbrugerstyrelsen, www.kfst.dk (The contracting entity does not take responsibility for the content of the guidance). 

Please note the following: - An applicant who participates alone, but relies on the capacity of one or more other entities (e.g. a parent company or sister company or subcontractor) shall ensure that the application is accompanied by both the applicant's own ESPD and a separate ESPD for each entity on which it wishes to rely, with a completed Part II "Information on the economic operator" and Part III "Grounds for exclusion" as well as relevant information concerning Part IV "Selection criteria" and Part V: "Limiting the number of qualified applicants".

The attached ESPD from those other entities should be duly completed and signed.

In addition, the submission of final evidence must also be accompanied by evidence of the commitment of these entities/subcontractors in this respect in the form of a statement of support. - Where groups of economic operators, including temporary associations, apply together, a full ESPD shall be filled in separately for each participating economic operator containing the required information. 
The final documentation must also be accompanied by a Consortium Declaration, by which the parties declare to be a consortium or other form of association jointly and severally, unconditionally, and directly liable for the fulfilment of the contract tendered.</cbc:Note><cac:ProcurementAdditionalType><cbc:ProcurementTypeCode listName="contract-nature">services</cbc:ProcurementTypeCode></cac:ProcurementAdditionalType><cac:RequestedTenderTotal><ext:UBLExtensions><ext:UBLExtension><ext:ExtensionContent><efext:EformsExtension><efbc:FrameworkMaximumAmount currencyID="EUR">9100000</efbc:FrameworkMaximumAmount></efext:EformsExtension></ext:ExtensionContent></ext:UBLExtension></ext:UBLExtensions><cbc:EstimatedOverallContractAmount currencyID="EUR">6500000</cbc:EstimatedOverallContractAmount></cac:RequestedTenderTotal><cac:MainCommodityClassification><cbc:ItemClassificationCode listName="cpv">44610000</cbc:ItemClassificationCode></cac:MainCommodityClassification><cac:AdditionalCommodityClassification><cbc:ItemClassificationCode listName="cpv">44613300</cbc:ItemClassificationCode></cac:AdditionalCommodityClassification><cac:AdditionalCommodityClassification><cbc:ItemClassificationCode listName="cpv">51210000</cbc:ItemClassificationCode></cac:AdditionalCommodityClassification><cac:RealizedLocation><cbc:Description languageID="ENG">Danmark:

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, however the applicant must describe the parts which have not yet been delivered, and this may affect the evaluation of the applicant, cf. section 2.3.

The references should include:
o A specific description of the work performed for each reference, including: A description of the modified standard containers delivered, including the number of units delivered along with services delivered as part of the reference
o Reference to directives used for authority approval
o Contract value (if possible)
o Contact information for the entity in question (including contact person)
o Date of initiation and final delivery (day, month, year)

Any ambiguities and/or incomprehensibilities may have a negative effect on the selection of applicants. Please note the “description” box in ESPD part IV.C. can contain more text than is visi-ble and it is possible to copy paste text into the box.

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).

If the applicant relies on other entities capacity or is part of a group of economic operators the information concerning ESPD part IV.C must be submitted in separate ESPD’s for each entity.

For Danish applicants/tenderers the documentation is entailed in the “Serviceattest” which can be acquired from the Danish Business Authority. The time frame from request of a Serviceattest until receipt is usually two weeks. 

For foreign applicants/tenderers it is the experience of the Contracting Authority that the time frame for receipt of this documen-tation varies within the individual member states. As a result, The Contracting Authority strongly advises foreign applicants/tenderers to obtain this documentation as early as possible. Preferably the documentation should be ready and available already in connection with the prequalification. 

The EU Commission has launched e-CERTIS, a free, on-line source of information to help companies and contracting authorities to deal with different forms of documentary evidence required when tendering for public contracts. Information regarding relevant certificates can be obtained from:

Meter container units for measurement of the gas mass flow are part of the reverse flow plant design. Therefore, the Contracting Authority intends to purchase meter container units for measurement of the gas mass flow are part of the reverse flow plant design.

For further details regarding the purchase, reference is made to the tender documents.

The tendered framework agreement has a duration of 4 years. The framework agreement can be extended for 2x2 years. Orders under the framework agreement will be allocated directly to the supplier which, in the view of the Contracting Authority, has submitted the most economically advantageous tender, see section 4.1.

The estimated consumption during the term of the framework agreement is expected to amount to seven (10) meter container units in total. The estimated number of units is the following: 
- Two (2) meter container units each for ID 1, ID 2, and ID 3.b
- One (1) meter container unit each for ID 3.c, ID 4, ID 6, and ID 7

The framework agreement consists of an initial call-off of two (2) meter container units, each of the following: ID 2, ID 3.b or ID 3.c. The initial call-off of two (2) meter container units will be awarded on the basis of the award of the framework agreement to the tenderer that achieves the highest score, cf. section 4.2. 

Following the abovementioned orders, four (4) meter container units are expected to be ordered, which is expected to be one of each of the following: ID 4, ID 6, ID 1, and ID 7.

The value of the framework agreement is expected to amount to EUR 6.500.000.

The consumption figures are estimates only and are consequently not binding for the Contracting Authority. During the specified period, the Contracting Authority has the right to purchase the services and/or goods comprised by the framework agreement from the selected tenderer, but is not obligated to do so, cf. the framework sec. 1.3.</cbc:Description><cbc:ProcurementTypeCode listName="contract-nature">supplies</cbc:ProcurementTypeCode><cbc:Note languageID="ENG">It should be noted that this is a negotiated procedure.
