### Selection Criterion Descriptions

- The candidate must submit the following information as preliminary proof that the candidate meets the minimum requirements for suitability in relation to economic and financial standing: - Shareholders’ equity for the last financial year available. The minimum requirement is that the candidate’s shareholders’ equity for the last financial year available must be at least 100 million DKK. If the candidate relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities, shareholders’ equity will be calculated as a total amount for the undertaking and such other entities for the last financial year available. For a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium), shareholders’ equity will be calculated as the undertakings’ overall shareholders’ equity for the last financial year available. This information is to be provided in section IV.B of the ESPD. Banedanmark will accept the following documentation of compliance with minimum requirements: Shareholders’ equity for the last financial year available: The undertaking’s balance sheet or extracts thereof for the last financial year available, if publication of the balance sheet is compulsory in the country where the undertaking is established, or other documentation of the amount of the undertaking’s shareholders’ equity. For a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium), the information must be provided for each undertaking participating in the group. If the undertaking relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent company, a fellow subsidiary or a sub-supplier), the information must also be provided for these entities.
- The candidate must submit the following information as preliminary proof that the candidate meets the minimum requirements for suitability in relation to economic and financial standing: - Solvency Ratio for the last financial year available. The minimum requirement is that the candidate’s solvency ratio for the last financial year available must be at least 20%. The solvency ratio is calculated on the basis of this formula: Solvency ratio = (equity / total assets ultimo) * 100 If the tenderer relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities, the sum of the equity of the business participants and the sum of their total assets is first calculated. The ratio between these two figures is then calculated. In the case of an association of businesses (e.g. a consortium), the sum of the equity of the business participants and the sum of their total assets is first calculated. The information must be provided in ESPD section IV.B. Solvency ratio for the last financial year available Presentation of annual accounts or extracts thereof, or a statement of the solvency ratio for the latest available financial year, depending on when the company was established or started its business, if the figures for this solvency ratio are available. In the case of an association of companies (e.g. a consortium), the information must be provided for each of the participating companies in the association. If the company relies on the economic and financial capacity of other entities (e.g. a parent company, sister company or subcontractor), the information must also be provided for these entities.
- A list of the candidate’s most significant, comparable references for fasteners for monoblock sleepers within the last 3 years, see sections 5.1.9 of the contract notice. One reference is defined as a contract covering deliveries to one customer. The list of references cannot contain more than three (3) references, regardless of whether the candidate is an individual undertaking, whether the candidate relies on the technical and professional ability of other entities, or whether the candidate is a group of economic operators (e.g. a consortium). If more than three (3) references are listed, only the first three (3) references listed in the ESPD will be considered. Any additional references will be disregarded. Each reference must include the following information : • A description of the relevant supply. The description of the supply should also contain a description of the scope of the supply. The description must include confirmation that the fastener holds either an EC-declaration or EC-verification according to TSI on UIC60 rails • The economic value of the supply (amount) • The date of the supply (start and end dates). Only references relating to deliveries performed at the time of submission of the request for prequalification will be considered. This means, for ongoing references, only the deliveries performed up until the time of submission of the request for prequalification will be included in the assessment of the reference • The name of the customer (recipient). It is a minimum requirement that the candidate specifies minimum one (1) and no more than three (3) references within the last 3 years covering delivery of fastening systems, that hold an EC-verification or EC-declaration according to TSI on UIC60 rails. This information is to be provided in section IV.C of the ESPD. If the candidate provides the information in an appendix to the ESPD, Banedanmark will only consider text and not images, illustrations, etc. Banedanmark will accept the following documentation of compliance with minimum requirements: The list of references specified by the candidate in the ESPD will serve as final documentation of the information provided as regards the candidate’s technical and professional ability. However, Banedanmark reserves the right to contact the candidate or the customer named in the reference with a view to verifying the information provided about the reference, including the dates specified for the reference.
- If more than four (4) compliant requests for pre-qualification are submitted, Banedanmark will select the four (4) candidates who are deemed to be the most suitable to supply the goods required under the contract. The selection of candidates will be based on an assessment of which candidates have submitted the most relevant references relative to the goods to be supplied under the framework agreement. In its assessment of the relevance of references, Banedanmark will put most emphasis on references delivered to and put into operation under similar climatical conditions as in Denmark – especially concerning application of fasteners in corrosive environments, and how recent the deliveries have been made.
