Denmark – Pumping station construction work – Udbud af pumpestationer (centraliseringsprojekt) for AquaDjurs A/S

The assignment concerns pump supply in connection with AquaDjurs’ overall centralisation project in Syddjurs Municipality. The project involves establishing a new separating transport system with approximately 95 km of pressure pipes, associated pump stations and basin facilities, as well as the decommissioning of a number of existing treatment plants. The contract awarded includes project optimisation, contractor project management, supply, execution, testing, documentation, delivery and commissioning of selected major pump stations and booster pump stations, which must be carried out as an integrated part of the overall transport system. Furthermore, the work will involve coordination with the existing pump supplier for smaller pumps for use in approximately 6-7 pump stations. The task will be carried out in phases as the main contractor and requires close coordination with the Contracting Authority, the total consultant, pipeline contractors, construction contractors, the client's SRO programmer and other suppliers. The contractual basis will consist of an overarching cooperation agreement and a conditional main contract, which is entered into individually per phase. Each phase is divided into stages, where the conditional main contract will be updated after the completion of stage 3, and the conditional status will be removed. The contractual basis is based on AB18 with the Contracting Authority's specifications, and the Tenderer's attention is drawn to the requirement to use trainees during execution. The current tender is taking place at an extremely early stage in the project with a view to involving the future main contractor in the further initial project management of the centralisation project. This will practically mean that at this point in time it is not possible for the Contracting Authority to determine which types of pump solutions should be tendered. Specification of the service will only take place as the project progresses in cooperation with the future main contractor. It has been decided that the future main contractor must provide complete technical solutions for their own services and actively contribute to the clarification of interfaces, system design, hydraulics, control, co-control, working environment, commissioning and future operation based on their project optimisation and later detailed project. The tender is carried out as a negotiated procedure with prior call for competition pursuant to Article 47, pursuant to Directive 2014/25/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 ("Public Sector Directive"). The tendering process consists of a pre-qualification phase and a tendering phase, which includes the possibility of several rounds of negotiations, after which the Tenderer will have the opportunity to submit a final tender.
