Interested and eligible specialised Consultants - such as investment banks or consulting firms - having due expertise in the field of privatisation processes, duly licensed to provide advisory services required by and related to the performance of the Project, are hereby invited to submit, on an either individual or consortium basis, no later than 24.07.2013, 03:00 pm, Romanian time, to Registratura Generala, C.E. Hunedoara, municipiul Vulcan, str. Paroseni, nr. 20, jud. Hunedoara, Romania (General Registry Office of C.E. Hunedoara, Vulcan, Paroseni 20, Hunedoara County), their letter of interest providing specific details certifying that the Consultants meet the selection criteria for the Consultants’ shortlisting, and specifically indicating, including by means of supporting documents (note that, for the purpose of this Project stage, supporting documents may include notarised sworn statements), that the Consultants meet the following selection criteria:

(i)

Expertise derived from participation over the past 10 years as consultants of governments/ ministries in Romania and/or other EU countries and/or worldwide, as part of successfully completed projects involving privatisation and/or merger and/or cash private capital contribution increases in state-owned companies operating in such sectors as the energy field and/or mineral resources, with a turnover of no less than EUR 50 million;

or

 

(ii)

Expertise derived from participation over the past 10 years as consultants in successfully completed projects involving privatisation and/or merger and/or cash private capital contribution increases in companies operating in such sectors as the energy field and/or mineral resources with more than EUR 30 million transactions conducted in Romania and/or other EU countries and/or worldwide

and

 

(iii)

The average turnover over the past consecutive complete three (3) financial years is no less than EUR 800,000. In order to determine if a consortium meets this criterion, it is not requested that each consortium member comply with this requirement, as the average turnover to be considered will be the largest one reported over the past consecutive complete three (3) financial years by any of the consortium members. In order to determine if this selection criterion is met, the consortium members’ average turnovers will not be cumulated, but the largest of those turnovers will be considered.

For avoidance of any doubt, the selection criteria listed in (i) and (ii) are mutually exclusive, with either of them having to be met cumulatively with the criterion set forth in (iii).

Moreover, the Consultants will submit documents supporting the fact that they are authorized to provide consulting services related to the Project (for the purpose of this stage, the supporting documents shall be the confirmation of company details issued by the Trade Register Office no more than 30 days before the submission of the letter of interest, in case of Consultants that are Romanian legal entities, and equivalent documents issued in their countries of origin, in case of Consultants that are foreign legal entities).

The documents requested according to the above shall be submitted in original, in Romanian or, if the case may be, in English, accompanied by their translation into Romanian, legalised by a Romania-based notary public office.

In order to meet the selection criteria, the Consultants may submit letters of interest in partnership (as a consortium). The agreement whereby the consortium was established is not mandatory to be submitted for the purpose of this stage of the selection procedure.

The Short List of pre-selected Consultants shall be displayed on the Internet page of C.E. Hunedoara, at www.cenhd.ro, within 10 business days from the deadline for submission of the letters of interest.
