Section VI: Complementary information

VI.3)Additional information:

Regarding section II.1.5): The estimated value of the framework agreement is kr. 8 mio. and the maximum value of the framework agreement is kr. 16 mio. The reason for the difference between the stated values is the uncertainty regarding the final value of the framework agreement, cf. below. Hence, the estimated value constitutes DALO’s most qualified estimate of the value of the framework agreement at the present moment, while the maximum value constitutes the maximum value of purchases under the framework agreement in its duration.

DALO does not provide remuneration for the participants in the tender.

The framework agreement contains requirements regarding labour clause, CSR requirements, international sanctions as well as provisions regarding risk assessment and follow-up actions; reference is made to ap-pendix B and appendix B.1 for further information. In the procurement of the framework agreement the risk profile is assessed to the following follow-up action (risk level): B.

Upon submission of an offer the tenderer is asked to sign a self-declaration on compliance with labour clauses, CSR obligations and international sanctions, cf. “Additional information”.

If the self-declaration is not signed, the tenderer will be excluded from participation in the procurement process.

DALO has uploaded a template (available in the ETHICS web portal) which must be used as a statement. See the "Additional information" document, which is available on the ETHICS web portal, for more information.

The tenderer must together with the tender submit an ESPD as preliminary evidence of the circumstances set out in § 148(1) (1-3) of the Public Procurement Act.

The tenderer and, if relevant, the participants in the group of entities or/and entities on which the candidate relies on, must use the electronic version of the ESPD available at ETHICS’ web portal. The ESPD shall be fulfilled and submitted at ETHICS’ web portal in accordance with the instructions given by ETH-ICS. The ESPD document must be signed by the supporting entity. It is not necessary for the tenderer to sign the ESPD document. If the tenderer is a group of entities (consurtiums), each participant’s ESPD document must be signed by the participant in question. It is not necessary for the participant submitting the tender to sign his ESPD document.

Prior to decision on award of the contract, DALO shall require that the tenderer to whom DALO intends to award the contract presents documentation for the information stated in the ESPD, cf. §§ 151-155 of the said Act. Please see the document “Additional information”, which is located at the ETHICS-webportal, cf. section I.3), for further information on the matter.
