The applicant must confirm the economic ability in the ESPD part IV.B with information from the latest annual report regarding the following economic indicators: 1. Equity (total equity incl. share capital, reserves, revaluation, retained earning etc.) 2. Equity ratio (equity/total assets). This must be stated with two decimals. If the applicant relies on the capacities of other entities or the applicant is a group of economic operators the information for the ESPD part IV.B must also be given in a separate ESPD from each of these entities. It is the sole responsibility of the applicant to secure that the minimum requirements are reached based on consolidation when the applicant is relying on the capacity of other entities or when the applicant is a group of economic operators. Minimum requirement: Lot 1: Equity from the latest annual report must at the time limit for receipt of tenders be at least EUR EUR 2.500.000 Equity ratio from the latest annual report must, at the time of prequalification, be at least 20 pct. If the equity ratio is between 15 pct. and 20 pct. the applicant can qualify if Equity exceeds EUR 7.500.000

The suitability of applicants fulfilling the minimum requirements to economic and financial standing will be assessed based on technical and professional ability. The ability will be assessed based on references which can be filled in ESPD part IV.C. The applicant shall submit three (3) to five (5) most comparable and relevant references un-dertaken in the five (5) years as part of the application. By "undertaken in the past 5 years” implies that the reference must not have been completed prior to the date reached when counting five (5) years backwards from the submission date for prequalification. References older than this will not be taken into consideration. References which have not yet been fully completed can be included as part of the application, however the applicant must describe the parts which have not yet been delivered, and this may affect the evaluation of the applicant, cf. section 2.3. The references may include a description of the work involving glass insulators and indicate whether the supply covered the complete insulator string (glass insulators and fittings) or whether the glass insulators and fittings were supplied separately, and include - Quantity: Comparable to the quantities specified in Appendix 3A– Pricelist Substations and Appendix 3B – Pricelist Power Lines. - Contract Value: Approximately equivalent to the value of the current contract, where possible. - Weather Conditions: The reference projects should be located in areas with weather and environmental conditions comparable to those in Denmark. Please describe the relevant conditions where applicable. - Country: Specify the country in which the reference project was carried out. - Customer Reference: Name of the recipient/customer, including the name of the contact person and their contact details (e-mail address and telephone num-ber).Project Timeline: Date of contract award/initiation and date of final delivery (day, month, year). Glass insulators are supposed to be delivered in both of the lots why demands for references are applicable for both lots. Any ambiguities and/or incomprehensibilities may have a negative effect on the selection of applicants. Please note the “description” box in ESPD part IV.C. can contain more text than is visible and it is possible to copy paste text into the box. The number of references should not surpass a maximum of the five (5) most comparable and relevant references.
