Frame Agreement for Flow Computers

The tender covers a Framework Agreement of electronic Flow computers for Gas applications. The flow computer will be used for measuring volume flow (Nm³/h) as well as optionally temperature (^oC) and pressure (bar).

In addition to supply of the Flow Computers, the scope of supply also covers user training and after sales support.

The tender involves a joint procurement including the parties mentioned in section I.2. As an option the tendered frame agreement may also be entered by new entities within the Energinet group, cf. section II.2.11

Contracting Authorities are in the market to purchase Flow Computers for installations, measuring volume flow (Nm³/h) as well as optionally temperature (^oC) and pressure (bar) of Natural-/Bio Gas.

Energinet is entitled to extend the contract 3 times, each for duration of one year, meaning that the maximum total duration of the framework agreements is eight years including all options to extend.

The Contracting Authority will prequalify a maximum of 7 applicants who are evaluated as most qualified for the specific tender. Only these applicants will be invited to submit a tender. The selection of the applicants will be based on the submitted references. That is to which extend the reference(s) are similar to the tender assignment, cf. section II.2.4. As a result the number of references will not be the determining factor alone, but more importantly to which degree the specific forwarded references are comparable and relevant to the tender assignment regarding solution and scope, especially concerning the context to which the supply will be part of, such as biogas production, transmission and distribution of gas under the Danish regulation/legislation (and/or equivalent).

Companies in which Energinet SOV or another company in the Energinet group acquire half or more than half of the capital or have the authority to exercise half or more than half of the voting rights or has the right to manage the company’s business regardless of the official name during the term of the Frame Agreement will have an option to use the Frame Agreement.

Please note that Energinet is undergoing process for internal reorganization which may result in new company group structure within Energinet group. As a result the responsibility of the contract, including ownership, may be transferred to the company responsible for this type of procurement when the new structure is finalized. Reorganization will not affect the scope of the tendered contract.

The Contracting Authority will only enter into contract with economic solid companies. This to ensure that the company continues to exist through the whole contract period.
