Compliance requirements
The tender documents include the standard mandatory exclusion grounds, including participation in a criminal organisation, corruption and fraud. The bidder or its management, administrative or supervisory body members, or persons authorised to represent or control the bidder, must not have a final conviction for these offences within the last five years, unless the exclusion period has expired. The bidder may, where allowed, provide evidence of self-cleaning and must check the official tender documents for the full list of exclusion grounds and any exact conditions.
