Refrigerators

The tender documents set out mandatory exclusion grounds. The bidder must confirm that neither the bidder nor its management, administrative or supervisory body members, nor any person authorised to represent, decide for or control the bidder, has been finally convicted within the last five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud and the other listed exclusion grounds. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may have to provide evidence of self-cleaning measures where allowed by law or the tender documents. The machine-readable notice did not include the full list in a concise form, so the exact exclusion grounds must be checked in the tender documents.

The bidder must submit the participation application form and confirm that the bid complies with the tender documents. Conditional bids are not allowed. The bid price must be submitted according to the prescribed structure. During the period of technical support for the equipment, the bidder’s team must include at least one specialist trained in refrigerator repair and maintenance with at least 3 years of experience in maintaining and repairing refrigerators. In the case of a joint bid, an authorised representative must be appointed and a power of attorney from the joint bidders must be attached. The bidder must also confirm compliance with the equivalence requirements and provide evidence where necessary. In addition, the bidder must confirm that subcontractors and suppliers representing more than 10% of the contract value are not citizens, residents or entities established in the Russian Federation, nor persons or entities owned or controlled by them, and that the offered goods are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned areas. The machine-readable notice did not include precise qualification, suitability or compliance requirements; these must be checked in the tender documents.
