Compliance requirements
The bidder and its management bodies must not have been finally convicted within the last five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism, money laundering, child labour or other exclusion grounds listed in the notice. If such a ground exists, the bidder may submit evidence of self-cleaning measures where permitted. The bidder must also confirm payment of taxes and social security contributions and, where required, provide the relevant evidence or electronic verification data.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The procurement is divided into 14 lots, and a bid may be submitted for one or more lots; a contract may be awarded to one supplier for up to 14 lots. The bid must comply with the tender documents, and conditional bids are not allowed. In a joint bid, an authorised representative must be appointed and a power of attorney from the joint bidders must be attached. The bidder must indicate any business secrets, but not the bid price or other numerical indicators corresponding to award criteria. During contract performance, only subcontractors and suppliers established in Estonia, another EU Member State, an EEA contracting state or a WTO Government Procurement Agreement country may be used. The bidder must confirm that the goods offered are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned areas. The machine-readable notice did not include precise qualification or suitability criteria; these must be checked in the tender documents.
