N/A Is the tenderer aware of breaches of provisions on social conditions as stated in national law, the relevant notice or procurement documents or Article 18 (2) of Directive 2014/24/EU. Has the tenderer or an entity associated with the supplier advised the contracting authority or in another way been involved in the planning of the competition? Quality Assurance System Is the tenderer himself or a person, who is a member of the tenderer's administration, management or supervisory body, or has the competence to represent or control or make decisions in such bodies, in the event a legal verdict has been convicted of acts of terrorism or criminal acts connected to terrorist activities by a verdict handed down no more than five years ago, or a rejection period set directly in the judgement that still applies? Acts of terrorism or criminal acts relating to terrorist activity as defined in Article 1 and 3 of the Council ́s framework decision 2002/475/RIA of 13 June 2002 on combating terrorism (EFT L 164, af 22.6.2002, p. 3). This rejection reason also includes incitement to, participation or attempts to commit such actions as included in Article 4 in the mentioned framework decision. The competition is being held in accordance with the Utilities Regulations § 7-9 on climate and environmental considerations. According to the Utilities Regulations § 7-9, the contracting authority shall take into account climate and environment in all procurements in order to reduce the procurement ́s total climate footprint and environmental impact. Climate and environmental considerations as a starting point shall be weighted with a minimum of 30 percent in the procurement notice where the award criteria are weighted. The award criteria for climate and environment can still be replaced or combined with climate and environmental requirements in the requirement specifications if this results in a better climate or environmental effect. This shall be justified in the procurement documents. The contracting authority has assessed that climate and environmental considerations in this procurement are best taken care of through concrete requirements in the requirement specifications and the contract documentation, rather than as a separate award criterion. The justification is that the requirements govern the delivery against the material and solution depositions that are assessed to have the greatest impact on the climate and environmental effect in the M1 contract. An assessment has been carried out of which factors most affect climate and environmental considerations in the M1 contract. For this contract it is estimated that the material production will make up most of the emissions. The choice of materials for pipes and tanks is included in the interaction phase, but for this type of plant, the alternatives are, in practice, limited to materials in acid proof steel, polyethylene or fibreglass. The use of acid-proof steel, polyethylene and fibreglass which have low CO2 emissions from the production are therefore required. There are concrete/specific requirements, and these shall be documented by EPDs. The requirements are described in the contract documentation for phase 2. The cleaning process ́s need for area, chemicals and electricity will affect the climate and environmental impact. The reduction in these parameters also results in lower costs for SVA, and optimisation of them is a natural part of the interaction phase and engineering design. EpDs or other third-party verified documentation of CO2 emissions has not been found for polymer and precipitation chemicals that are estimated to contribute the most to the CO2 emissions. Some manufacturers have the Product Carbon Footprint Data Sheet (PCF), but these are not third-party verified. These conditions will therefore be dealt with in the interaction phase and are not suitable as the award criteria in this procurement. Many valves shall be assembled in the treatment plant and it has been examined whether it is possible to document the emissions of CO2 from the production of valves. There are EPDs for a few selected valves, but the valves for which EPDs exist are considered to only be a marginal part of the total number of different valves that shall be assembled and an even smaller part of the total CO2 emission. Any requirement for valves will therefore not have a significant impact on the CO2 emissions. Based on this, the contracting authority considers that climate and environmental considerations give better climate and environmental effect when safeguarded through requirements in the requirement specification and contract documentation, than by using a separate climate and environment criteria in the tender evaluation. A special award criterion for climate and environment has, therefore, not yet been determined. Core team competency Is the tenderer himself or a person, who is a member of the tenderer's administration, management or supervisory body, or has the competence to represent or control or make decisions in such bodies, have been legally convicted of offences regarding professional behaviour in defence procurements?
