The U.S. Government intends to award a contract to the responsible company submitting an acceptable offer at the lowest price.  We intend to award a contract based on initial quotations, without holding discussions, although we may hold discussions with companies in the competitive range if there is a need to do so.

Please pay attention to a crucial requirement outlined in the DOSAR 652.242-73. This requirement mandates that all vendors possess the necessary licenses and permits to conduct business in Denmark. It is essential to ensure compliance with all Danish regulations and legalities to operate successfully in the country. Specifically, the Danish Tax authorities expect businesses to obtain a CVR number and fulfill tax obligations. You should review local laws before submitting a quotation.

No one will be allowed to enter the premises without prior notification. Attendance at the pre-quotation conference and site visit is strongly recommended. Offerors are encouraged to review the solicitation documents in advance.

Please note that transportation for the site visit will not be provided.  All participants are responsible for arranging their own transportation from the Embassy to the site location.
