Section II: Object
Acquisition of Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS) and related support services.
The Ministry of Taxation has established an Implementation Centre for Property Valuation (ICE), which has been tasked with developing a property valuation system. In connection with this work, the contracting authority needs to make use of Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS) and related support services. The contracting authority expects to use the Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS) and related support services to run the property valuation in its testing and development environment as well as in its production environment. The property valuation system is currently in development.
The quantitative usage of the individual cloud services and the related support services may vary substantially in the duration of the contract.
This tender is conducted as an open procedure, cf. section 56-57 of the Danish Public Procurement Act (udbudsloven) No 1564 15.12.2015 (i.e. the Danish implementation of Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council). This tender concerns the acquisition of Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and Faas) and related support services.
The contracting authority expects to use the Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS) and the related support services to run the property valuation system in its testing and development environment as well as in its production environment. The property valuation system is currently in development.
The property valuation system is expected to be put into production in early 2018, however, it should be taken into consideration, that this might be subject to change, e.g. due to political decisions in the Danish Parliament. The organisational set-up of the Ministry of Taxation will, gradually change as from early 2017. Some existing agencies will continue unchanged and some will in whole or in part be merged into other existing agencies or agencies to be established. Therefore, the contracting authority needs to ensure a great level of flexibility concerning the use of the Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS) and the related support services as well as the ability to assign the rights and obligations in whole or in part under the contract.
The quantitative usage of the individual services of the Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS) and the related support services may vary substantially in the duration of the contract. The contracting authority shall have the right to switch between various versions of the services and the related support services, such as geographical location of data centres and support tiers.
The tenderer shall provide updates and further developments of the Cloud Services (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS) and related support services.
In case the Supplier markets new functions and/or new individual services or updates of existing functions and/or individual services as part of the Cloud Services and/or related support services delivered under the contract, the contracting authority shall be entitled to purchase and use such new or improved functions and/or individual services as part of the Cloud Services and/or support services in accordance with the contract.
The contracting authority has chosen not to subdivide the contract into lots, cf. Instructions to Tenderers.
The contract involves the processing of personal data. The contract therefore contains far-reaching requirements concerning data protection and information security. The tenderer therefore must sign a data processing agreement. All data shall at all times remain in the EU and/or EEA.

Section VI: Complementary information
The tenderer must submit as part of the tender an ESPD as preliminary documentation of the circumstances set out in section 148(1)(i-iii) of the Danish Public Procurement Act (udbudsloven). For groups of economic operators (e.g. a consortium), a separate ESPD must be submitted for each participating economic operator. If the tenderer relies on the capacity of other entities, an ESPD must be submitted for each of the entities on which the tenderer relies. Reference is made to the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority's ESPD guide.
Before the decision to award the contract is made, the tenderer to whom the contracting authority intends to award the contract must provide documentation of the information submitted in the ESPD pursuant to sections 151-152, cf. section 153 of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
The tenderer shall at the request of the contracting authority provide the following documentation as evidence for the absence of grounds for exclusion, cf. section 135 (1) or (3) and section 137 (1) (2 or 7):
— An extract from the relevant register or a similar document issued by a competent judicial or administrative authority stating that the tenderer is not subject to the grounds for exclusions stipulated in section 135 (1);
— A certificate issued by the competent authority in the country referred to as documentation that the tenderer is not subject to the grounds for exclusion stipulated in the cases stated in section 135 (3) and in section 137 (1) (2 or 7).
Danish tenderers may submit a ‘serviceattest’ issued by the Danish Business Authority.
If the country in question does not issue the documents or certificates stated above, or if such documents or certificates do not cover fully all mentioned grounds for exclusion, those documents or certificates can be replaced by a statement provided on oath. If statements on oath are not provided for in the relevant country, a solemn declaration made before a competent judicial or administrative authority, a notary or a competent professional organisation in the country in which the candidate or tenderer is registered, can be applied, cf. section 153 (2) of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
The tenderer may rely on the capacities of other entities (e.g. a parent company or a sister company), regardless of the legal nature of the links between them. Where a tenderer wants to rely on the capacities of other entities the tenderer shall prove to the contracting authority that it will have at its disposal the resources necessary, for example, by producing a commitment or other documentation from those entities confirming their legal obligation to provide the necessary resources for the duration of the contract. If such documentation is not provided the contracting authority cannot take the other entities' capacities into account. The tenderer may use Enclosure 3 to the Instructions to Tenderers for this purpose.
The tenderer will be excluded from participation in the tender procedure if the tenderer is subject to the compulsory grounds for exclusion set out in sections 135 and 136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act, and the grounds for exclusion set out in section 137(1)(2 or 7) of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
The contracting authority reserves the right to initiate a self-cleaning procedure, should this prove relevant, cf. section 138 of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
As regards section II.2.6), please note, that the value represents a rough estimate of an expected contract value for a period of 48 months, cf. section 36 (3) of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
The tender procedure is subject to the necessary funding being available.
