Compliance requirements
The tender documents include the standard mandatory exclusion grounds, including participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud and other criminal-conviction grounds. The bidder must confirm whether any such ground applies to the bidder or to persons who represent or control the bidder. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may also need to explain any self-cleaning measures and provide supporting evidence. The machine-readable notice did not include the full list of precise exclusion grounds, so they must be checked in the official tender documents.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The machine-readable notice did not include precise qualification, suitability or compliance requirements; these must be checked in the official tender documents. The ESPD and compliance documents do, however, require the bidder to submit the completed Annex 1 technical description and price form, confirm that the bid complies with the procurement documents, and, where relevant, attach evidence of equivalence. In the case of a joint bid, an authorised representative must be named. For contract signing, the bidder must also provide the signatory and contact person details for the contract. The notice did not set out any specific financial turnover, reference experience, staff or certificate requirements in the extracted text.
