2.1.4 Generelle oplysninger

Yderligere oplysninger: Section 134a of the Danish Public Procurement Act shall apply to this tender procedure.

Participation\n in the tender procedure may only take place by electronic means via the electronic\n tendering system used by the contracting entity. For access to the procurement documents,\n the candidate must be registered or register as a user. If the application contains\n several versions of the same document, the latest uploaded version will apply.

All\n communication in connection with the tender procedure, including questions and answers,\n must take place through the electronic tendering system. Reference is made to the\n tender specifications and appendix B for information concerning questions and answers.

Interested\n operators are requested to keep updated via the electronic tendering system. If the\n candidate encounters problems with the system, please contact support by e-mail, dksupport@eu-supply.com,\n or telephone (+45) 70 20 80 14.

As its application, the candidate must submit\n an ESPD as preliminary documentation of the circumstances set out in section 148(1),\n paras (1)-(3) of the Danish Public Procurement Act (udbudsloven). It is not necessary\n for the candidate to sign the ESPD document. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium),\n a separate ESPD must be submitted for each participating operator. Where the candidate\n is a group of operators, the ESPD document of each participant in the group must be\n signed by the participant in question. The candidate heading the group and submitting\n the application is not required to sign its ESPD document. If the candidate relies\n on the capacities of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for and signed by each\n of the entities on which it relies.

Before the award decision is made, the\n tenderer to whom the contracting entity intends to award the contract must provide\n documentation of the information submitted in the ESPD pursuant to sections 151-152,\n cf. section 153 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. As an alternative to the documentation\n mentioned in sections 153-155, 157 and 158 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, the\n applicant and tenderer may submit to the contracting entity a certificate of registration\n in an official list of approved economic operators, see section 156 of the Danish\n Public Procurement Act, issued by the competent authority. The contracting entity\n only accepts certificates of registration in an official list from applicants and\n tenderers established in the country holding the official list.

The candidate\n must also submit a letter of commitment in which the entity/entities on which the\n candidate relies has/have undertaken joint and several liability with the candidate\n if the candidate is awarded the contract. The form is enclosed as an attachment to\n the tender specifications.

The contracting entity will select the number\n of candidates by applying the selection criteria stated in this contract notice, unless\n the contracting entity receives no more than the stated number of compliant requests\n for participation.

It should be noted that the amount is an estimate of the\n expected contract price for the entire term of the contract, including the price of\n all options. The estimate is based on historical consumption combined with an estimate\n of future resource needs.

It should be noted that each candidate may only\n submit one application for prequalification.

The contracting entity may use\n the procedure of section 159(5) of the Danish Public Procurement Act in the event\n that applications or tenders do not comply with the formal requirements of the tender\n documents.

Attention is drawn to Article 5k in Regulation (EU) No 833/2014,\n as amended, which applies to the tender procedure. The provision contains a prohibition\n against award of contracts to Russian companies and Russian-controlled companies etc.\n (reference is made to Article 5k, section 1, for the precise definition of the operators\n that are subject to the prohibition). The contracting entity reserves the right to\n require at any time during the tender process that the economic operators prove that\n they are not subject to the prohibition, for example by requiring a declaration to\n this effect and/or documentation regarding the place of establishment and ownership\n of the economic operators and any subcontractors.

It should be noted that\n the indicated term of the agreement is calculated from the Acceptance Date.

In\n addition to the indicated duration of contract, an expiry phase that is flexible in\n time will be required when the contract is at an end in order to ensure an undisturbed\n continuation of the stations in connection with a possible re-tender.

The\n contracting entity expects to conduct 1 negotiation with each tenderer based on the\n initial offer. For further information on the process of the negotiations, reference\n is made to the tender specifications.

The contracting entity will pay no\n remuneration for participating in this tender procedure.

Kriterium: Referencer på specificerede leverancer

Beskrivelse: The candidate must submit the ESPD with the following information:

A list\n of the 5 most significant comparable supplies, see description of main services in\n this notice, that the candidate has carried out in the latest 3 years before the expiry\n of the deadline for application.

Only references relating to supplies carried\n out at the time of application will be given importance in the evaluation of whether\n the requirements regarding technical and professional capacity have been complied\n with, see below. Hence, in the case of an ongoing task, only the part of the services\n already performed at the time of application will be included in the evaluation of\n the reference.

Each reference is requested to include a brief description\n of the deliveries made.

No additional documentation\n of technical and professional capacity will be required from the candidate. However,\n the contracting entity reserves the right to contact the candidate or the customer\n stated in the reference for verification of the information stated in the reference,\n including the dates of the reference indicated.

Minimum requirement:

The\n tenderer must demonstrate at least 1 reference stating that the candidate, within\n the last 3 years, has provided biometric stations for capture of biometrics, i.e.\n photo, fingerprint, and signature, as well as support for the provided stations.

2.1.4 General information

Additional information: Section 134a of the Danish Public Procurement Act shall apply to this tender procedure.

Participation\n in the tender procedure may only take place by electronic means via the electronic\n tendering system used by the contracting entity. For access to the procurement documents,\n the candidate must be registered or register as a user. If the application contains\n several versions of the same document, the latest uploaded version will apply.

All\n communication in connection with the tender procedure, including questions and answers,\n must take place through the electronic tendering system. Reference is made to the\n tender specifications and appendix B for information concerning questions and answers.

Interested\n operators are requested to keep updated via the electronic tendering system. If the\n candidate encounters problems with the system, please contact support by e-mail, dksupport@eu-supply.com,\n or telephone (+45) 70 20 80 14.

As its application, the candidate must submit\n an ESPD as preliminary documentation of the circumstances set out in section 148(1),\n paras (1)-(3) of the Danish Public Procurement Act (udbudsloven). It is not necessary\n for the candidate to sign the ESPD document. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium),\n a separate ESPD must be submitted for each participating operator. Where the candidate\n is a group of operators, the ESPD document of each participant in the group must be\n signed by the participant in question. The candidate heading the group and submitting\n the application is not required to sign its ESPD document. If the candidate relies\n on the capacities of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for and signed by each\n of the entities on which it relies.

Before the award decision is made, the\n tenderer to whom the contracting entity intends to award the contract must provide\n documentation of the information submitted in the ESPD pursuant to sections 151-152,\n cf. section 153 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. As an alternative to the documentation\n mentioned in sections 153-155, 157 and 158 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, the\n applicant and tenderer may submit to the contracting entity a certificate of registration\n in an official list of approved economic operators, see section 156 of the Danish\n Public Procurement Act, issued by the competent authority. The contracting entity\n only accepts certificates of registration in an official list from applicants and\n tenderers established in the country holding the official list.

The candidate\n must also submit a letter of commitment in which the entity/entities on which the\n candidate relies has/have undertaken joint and several liability with the candidate\n if the candidate is awarded the contract. The form is enclosed as an attachment to\n the tender specifications.

The contracting entity will select the number\n of candidates by applying the selection criteria stated in this contract notice, unless\n the contracting entity receives no more than the stated number of compliant requests\n for participation.

It should be noted that the amount is an estimate of the\n expected contract price for the entire term of the contract, including the price of\n all options. The estimate is based on historical consumption combined with an estimate\n of future resource needs.

It should be noted that each candidate may only\n submit one application for prequalification.

The contracting entity may use\n the procedure of section 159(5) of the Danish Public Procurement Act in the event\n that applications or tenders do not comply with the formal requirements of the tender\n documents.

Attention is drawn to Article 5k in Regulation (EU) No 833/2014,\n as amended, which applies to the tender procedure. The provision contains a prohibition\n against award of contracts to Russian companies and Russian-controlled companies etc.\n (reference is made to Article 5k, section 1, for the precise definition of the operators\n that are subject to the prohibition). The contracting entity reserves the right to\n require at any time during the tender process that the economic operators prove that\n they are not subject to the prohibition, for example by requiring a declaration to\n this effect and/or documentation regarding the place of establishment and ownership\n of the economic operators and any subcontractors.

It should be noted that\n the indicated term of the agreement is calculated from the Acceptance Date.

In\n addition to the indicated duration of contract, an expiry phase that is flexible in\n time will be required when the contract is at an end in order to ensure an undisturbed\n continuation of the stations in connection with a possible re-tender.

The\n contracting entity expects to conduct 1 negotiation with each tenderer based on the\n initial offer. For further information on the process of the negotiations, reference\n is made to the tender specifications.

The contracting entity will pay no\n remuneration for participating in this tender procedure.

If the\n candidate relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities in relation\n to the fulfilment of requirements, see below, the candidate and the entities in question\n will be required by the contracting entity to undertake joint and several liability\n for the performance of the contract.

The ESPD serves as provisional documentation\n that the [tenderer/candidate] fulfils the require-ments in respect of economic and\n financial capacity.

Before the award decision is made, the candidate to whom\n the contracting entity intends to award the contract must submit documentation that\n the information stated in the ESPD is accurate.

Upon the contracting entity's\n request, the following documentation of economic and financial capacity must be submitted:

A\n statement regarding the operator's overall turnover in the latest annual report/financial\n statement available, depending on when the operator was established or started trading\n if the figures for this turnover are available. For groups of operators (e.g. a consortium),\n the information in the latest annual report/financial statement available must be\n submitted for each participating operator in the group. Where an operator relies on\n the economic and financial capacity of other entities (e.g., a parent company, a sister\n company or a subcontractor), information for such other entities must be provided\n as well.

Minimum requirement:

As a minimum requirement, a total\n annual turnover of at least DKK 5 million is required in the latest annual report/financial\n statement available. If the candidate relies on the capacities of other entities,\n the turnover is to be calculated as the total turnover of the candidate and such other\n entities in the latest annual report/financial statement available. For groups of\n operators (e.g., a consortium), the turnover is calculated as the total turnover of\n the operators in the latest annual report/financial statement available. The information\n is to be stated in section IV.B of the ESPD.

Criterion: Other economic or financial requirements

Description: The candidate must submit the European Single Procurement Document (\"ESPD\") with the\n following information:

- The candidates equity in the latest financial year\n available.

In this procedure, the candidate may rely on the economic and\n financial capacity of other operators to fulfil the suitability requirements. The\n operator(s) making its/their economic and financial capacity available to the candidate\n must sign a letter of commitment, see further in the tender specifications. The form\n is enclosed as an attachment to the tender specifications.

If the candidate\n relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities in relation to the\n fulfilment of requirements, see below, the candidate and the entities in question\n will be required by the contracting entity to undertake joint and several liability\n for the performance of the contract.

The ESPD serves as provisional documentation\n that the candidate fulfils the requirements in respect of economic and financial capacity.

Where an operator relies on the economic and financial capacity of other\n entities (e.g., a parent company, a sister company or a subcontractor), information\n for such other entities must be provided as well.

Minimum requirement:

As\n a minimum requirement, a positive equity is required in the latest annual report/financial\n statement available. If the candidate relies on the capacities of other entities,\n the equity is to be calculated as the total equity of the operator and such other\n entities in the latest annual report/financial statement available. For groups of\n operators (e.g., a consortium), the equity is calculated as the total equity of the\n operators in the latest annual report/financial statement available. The information\n is to be stated in section IV.B of the ESPD.

Criterion: References on specified deliveries

Description: The candidate must submit the ESPD with the following information:

A list\n of the 5 most significant comparable supplies, see description of main services in\n this notice, that the candidate has carried out in the latest 3 years before the expiry\n of the deadline for application.

Only references relating to supplies carried\n out at the time of application will be given importance in the evaluation of whether\n the requirements regarding technical and professional capacity have been complied\n with, see below. Hence, in the case of an ongoing task, only the part of the services\n already performed at the time of application will be included in the evaluation of\n the reference.

Each reference is requested to include a brief description\n of the deliveries made. The description of the delivery should include a clear description\n of the supplies (see description of main services in this notice covered by the agreement)\n to which the delivery related and the candidate's role(s) in the performance of the\n delivery. The reference is furthermore requested to include the financial value of\n the delivery (amount), the date of delivery and the name of the customer (recipient).
When\n indicating the date of the delivery, the candidate is requested to indicate the date\n of commencement and finalisation of the delivery. If this is not possible, for example\n if the tasks were performed on a continuous basis under a framework agreement, the\n candidate is asked to indicate how the date is specified.
No more than 5 references\n may be stated, irrespective of whether the candidate is a single operator, whether\n the candidate relies on the technical capacity of other entities, or is a group of\n operators (e.g. a consortium). Where more than 5 references are stated, only the most\n recent 5 references will be taken into account. Any additional references will be\n disregarded. If it is not possible to decide which references are the most recent\n 5 references, the references will be selected by drawing lots.
In this procedure,\n the candidate may rely on the technical capacity of other operators to fulfil the\n suitability requirements. The operator(s) making its/their technical capacity available\n to the candidate must sign a letter of commitment, see further in the tender specifications.\n The form is enclosed as an attachment to the tender specifications.
The ESPD serves\n as provisional documentation of the candidate's compliance with the selection criterion\n stated in this no-tice.
Before the award decision is made, the tenderer to whom\n the contracting entity intends to award the framework agreement must submit documentation\n that the information stated in the ESPD is accurate.
No additional documentation\n of technical and professional capacity will be required from the candidate. However,\n the contracting entity reserves the right to contact the candidate or the customer\n stated in the reference for verification of the information stated in the reference,\n including the dates of the reference indicated.

Minimum requirement:

The\n tenderer must demonstrate at least 1 reference stating that the candidate, within\n the last 3 years, has provided biometric stations for capture of biometrics, i.e.\n photo, fingerprint, and signature, as well as support for the provided stations.

Criterion: References on specified deliveries

Description: Criteria for selection among the suitable candidates.

The shortlisting of\n candidates invited to tender will be based on an evaluation of which candidates have\n documented the most relevant deliveries, in relation to the main services put up for\n tender.

The relevance assessment will be made on the basis of the extent\n to which the references, combined, document experience in the provision of services\n that are comparable to the main services put up for tender.

In the evaluation\n of which candidates have documented the most relevant supplies, the contracting entity\n will award points to the candidates on a scale from 1-5 for each main service, based\n on the extent to which the references, combined, document relevant experience in providing\n the main services. On this basis, the candidate will be awarded a total score calculated\n as the average number of points awarded for the main services.

The criteria will be used to select the candidates to be invited for the second stage of the procedure

Information about the second stage of a two-stage procedure:

Minimum number of candidates to be invited for the second stage of the procedure: 3

Maximum number of candidates to be invited for the second stage of the procedure: 3
