Electrical network works in the Kohila - Märjamaa area

The tender documents state mandatory and voluntary exclusion grounds. The bidder must confirm that none of the mandatory grounds under Section 95(1) of the Public Procurement Act apply, including convictions related to participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, illegal employment of foreigners, child labour or human trafficking, tax or social security debt, or sanctions restrictions. The bidder must also confirm that none of the voluntary exclusion grounds under Section 95(4) apply, such as serious or repeated breach of a previous public contract or false information about qualification requirements. The documents also include a subcontractor control condition for contract performance, but that is mainly an execution-stage check.

The bidder’s net turnover for each of the last three completed financial years must be at least EUR 500,000. The bidder must submit extracts from the reports for the last three completed financial years, or another proof if the data are publicly available to the contracting authority from a register. If the financial year does not coincide with the calendar year, the requirement applies to the last three completed financial years.

Within the 36 months before the publication of the contract notice, the bidder must have prepared and handed over to a network operator at least 10 compliant external electrical network construction projects. A project is considered compliant if it was completed on time and no contractual penalty or compensation was paid in connection with it. Form 4 and a list of projects with short descriptions, handover dates and, where available, public procurement register reference numbers must be submitted. The bidder must have at least one person with a valid A-level electrical competence certificate or an equivalent professional qualification as an electrical engineer. If the bidder is not established in Estonia, it must provide confirmation and documents proving that the declared person has the required competence or equivalent qualification. The bidder must submit Form 1, the price schedule, Form 5, the list of workers, and, if necessary, copies of live-line work certificates.
