Explanation:
Something is wrong here, because the sentence you have makes it sound as if the liberty to choose is reserved for "bunden licitatiion".

So I used Google and found this:

Bygherren forbeholder sig også ved bunden licitation ret til frit at vælge mellem samtlige afgivne tilbud, medmindre national eller EF- lovgivning er til hinder herfor.
www.ks.dk/udbud/kdl/19980126.htm.

The word "også" is important if the senttence is to make sense.

The point is that the owner of the project can always choose freely among the proposals received.

Here is my suggestion for a translation of your sentence:

The [awarding authority - or whatever type of "bygherre" you have] reserves the right to choose freely among the proposals received also when the selective tendering method is used. used.

["proposal" is the term used by the large consulting engineers who have been among my clients for eight years]

Now I understand why part of this translation where so hard to do.
Thanks for pointing out that the translation I have been assigned with bears connection to a law suit.
It was presented to me as a technical translation, which it is obviously not.
Actually, the language combination was EN>NL, but I wanted to obtain help form native Danish speakers.
You have been very helpful. Thanks again.

Explanation:
I believe that "bunden" = "compulsory" is the key word here.

Explanation:
"compulsory" is definitely not appropriate here. "bunden licitation" is a technical term with a specific meaning - as is confirmed by Eurodicautom an other dictionaries if you don't happen to know it.
