Support for the further development and collection of the 2026 CO2 balance sheets ...

Such as stated in the Eignungskriterien, minimum qualification requirements cover several dimensions. Economically, the bidder’s average total annual turnover over the last three completed financial years (2023–2025) must be at least 150,000 EUR net, and turnover specifically in CO₂‑bilancing, life cycle analysis, sustainability or environmental assessment or comparable data‑analysis services must average at least 75,000 EUR net; these figures are to be declared in section III of the Eigenerklärung, and formally evidenced later if requested. Professionally/technically, the bidder must provide at least three reference projects (from 2021 onwards) per defined experience area, altogether covering: corporate Scope 1–3 GHG balances, data collection/consolidation across organisational units, and comprehensible, auditable documentation including data sources, emission factors, assumptions and calculation methods, with at least one full corporate Scope 1–3 balance and at least one public/infrastructure‑type client. On the personnel side, the project team must collectively cover specific method and reporting competences (Scopes 1–3, emissions factors, ESRS E1, dealing with data gaps, quality assurance, etc.), and the designated project lead must have at least two personal reference projects in corporate GHG balancing; these are documented via C‑F_Formblatt Team_EK_UVgO, C‑F4.2 and separate CVs/employee profiles.

Such as set out in the Leistungsbeschreibung, the scope of the contract comprises the methodical further development and preparation of Treibhausgasbilanzen for Autobahn GmbH for the reporting years 2026 and 2027. The contract begins with award (Zuschlag) and all services must be fully delivered by 31 December 2029; the bidder must start work immediately after award and organise multi‑year project activities, including data collection, consolidation, calculation and documentation. Expected deliverables include: two full corporate GHG balances (Scopes 1, 2, 3) for 2026 and 2027; structured calculation files; a clear description of system and reporting boundaries; an overview of data sources, data responsibilities, emission factors and key assumptions; documentation of data gaps, estimates and uncertainties; analysis of main emission drivers and changes year on year; a structured compilation of supporting evidence for audit; a “prüffähige” documentation for the statutory auditor; reporting‑ready outputs for sustainability reporting; and a final report with recommendations for further development. Place of performance is essentially at/for Autobahn GmbH (Germany), with the contractor responsible for its own data‑protection compliance as controller under the DSGVO and BDSG.

Such as indicated in the Aufforderung zur Angebotsabgabe and the weighting form reference, award criteria consist of price plus further qualitative criteria. The price is calculated from the checked offer sum, considering cheaper options and unconditional discounts. Additionally, “Preis und weitere Zuschlagskriterien gemäß Anlage Vordruck HVA L‑StB Gewichtung der Zuschlagskriterien” apply; the specific weighting and qualitative criteria (e.g. quality of concept, team qualifications) are set out in that separate weighting sheet, which must be attached and answered on a separate annex where requested (section 3.3). Nebenangebote (variants) are explicitly not permitted for this procedure (box “Nebenangebote sind nicht zugelassen” ticked), so only main offers meeting all minimum requirements are evaluated.

Such as in the Bewerbungsbedingungen and the Compliance‑Klausel, there are several risks and special conditions. Bids not submitted on time, not using the official forms or not meeting minimum requirements are excluded. The bidder must promptly notify the contracting authority of any ambiguities in the documents; alleged breaches of procurement rules may be addressed to Autobahn GmbH’s legal department. Subcontracting and Eignungsleihe are tightly regulated: the bidder must identify subcontracted parts, present obligation letters from subcontractors, and replace subcontractors if exclusion grounds or lack of suitability arise. In the case of economic Eignungsleihe, the third‑party company must jointly and severally liable with the bidder (per the Verpflichtungserklärung wirtschaftliche Eignungsleihe). Insurance is mandatory (at least 1,000,000 EUR per claim for personal and for property/financial damage, simply maximised per year) and must be maintained throughout the contract term; proof is due at contract start. The compliance clause introduces contractual penalties: in the event of serious law violations (corruption, money laundering, human‑rights or environmental breaches, anti‑competitive collusion) the client may terminate for cause, and a contractual penalty of 5% of the contract price may be imposed if the violation is attributable to the contractor; further damages may be claimed. The documents also reference preferred‑bidder status rules and note that certificates for such status must be produced on request. Deadlines for questions and site visits are not explicitly described in the extracted text, but general practice and section 1 (duty to point out ambiguities) imply that questions must be submitted in good time before bid submission via the procurement platform; no site visit requirements appear.

Contradictions or corrections in the documents are largely resolved by specific markings: such as where the standard templates allow options (e.g. Nebenangebote, reference periods, required proofs), the binding statements are those where the contracting authority has ticked or inserted a choice (e.g. “Nebenangebote sind nicht zugelassen”; references accepted beyond three years; minimum turnover figures). In case of any perceived conflict between generic HVA L‑StB boilerplate and the specific “Aufforderung zur Angebotsabgabe”, “Eignungskriterien” or Leistungsbeschreibung, the procedure‑specific information (e.g. the explicit minimum turnover values, required numbers of references, prohibition of variants, contract period until 31.12.2029) prevails, and bidders are expressly obliged to request clarification from Autobahn GmbH before submission if they identify discrepancies.
