Qualicifation system - Procurement of Goods & Services to 20-0,4 kV for N1 A/S

The purpose of the qualification system is to establish a list of qualified suppliers capable of supplying Goods & Services to 20-0,4 kV for N1 A/S to the Contracting Entity. The qualification system comprises several types of categories of products and services. The qualification system is thus divided into several categories, each category comprising one type of products and/or services. In the duration of the qualification system, the Contracting Entity may add additional categories and/or add additional products and/or services to an existing category if needed. Norlys Holding A/S is the central purchasing body and is thus responsible for establishing and operating the qualification system as well as for the subsequent contract management on behalf of N1 A/S. Being a group company, Norlys Holding A/S handles procurement and warehouse facilities for N1 A/S. Admission to the qualification system does not imply that the Supplier will be awarded a contract. Admission to the qualification system means that the Supplier may be invited to tender for the contracts which the Contracting Entity may offer under the qualification system. Qualified Suppliers may only be invited to submit tenders within the category for which the Supplier has qualified. The Contracting Entity may choose to divide the contract into lots, which at the time of the call for competition are most suitable with respect to division in units, categories and products/services. In connection with the Contracting Entity's procurement based on the qualification system, the Contracting Entity will decide whether the individual contract should be awarded by restricted or negotiated procedure. The Contracting Entity may also conclude a framework agreement based on the qualification system. As a general rule, the Contracting Entity will invite all Suppliers qualified in the individual category to submit tenders for the specific procurements conducted under the qualification system. However, the Contracting Entity reserves the right to limit the number of Suppliers and only issue the tender material to the Suppliers that the Contracting Entity considers best qualified in relation to the specific tender. In the selection, emphasis will be placed on the most relevant and comparable references in accordance with section 4.10 in the tender conditions. Likewise, the Contracting Entity may limit the number of Suppliers based on the types that the Suppliers have indicated they can supply within the individual category. Further information is stated in the tender conditions.
