Participation requirements

Tender requirements are available in the official tender documents.

Compliance requirements

The notice includes the standard exclusion grounds from the tender passport, including participation in a criminal organisation, corruption and fraud. The bidder or its managers/representatives must not have a final conviction for these offences within the last 5 years, unless the exclusion period has already expired. If an exclusion ground exists, the bidder may be allowed to demonstrate self-cleaning, where permitted by the procurement rules or the tender documents. The machine-readable notice does not provide the full list of exclusion grounds in the excerpt shown; the exact grounds and any bidder confirmations must be checked in the official tender documents.

Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds

The bidder must have properly performed at least 1 contract during the 60 months preceding the start of the procurement, and that contract must have included the preparation and delivery of a hackathon or an innovation event. The hackathon or innovation event had to last at least 8 hours and involve at least 50 participants. To prove this, the bidder must provide a list of contracts with the title, content, purpose, number of participants, client contact details, start and end dates, and the bidder’s tasks. Under the compliance requirements, the bidder must confirm that the bid complies with the tender documents, explain equivalence where necessary, and attach supporting evidence. In the case of a joint bid, a duly authorised representative must be named and a power of attorney from the joint bidders must be attached. The bidder must also provide a description of the bid solution as required by the tender documents and confirm that it will not use subcontractors or suppliers representing more than 10% of the contract value if they are citizens or residents of the Russian Federation, entities established in the Russian Federation, or persons/entities controlled by them. If the bid contains trade secrets, they must be briefly described and justified; the bid price and other numerical indicators related to evaluation may not be marked as trade secrets.
