Compliance requirements
The tender documents include standard exclusion grounds. The bidder must confirm that neither the company nor its management, supervisory or representative persons have been finally convicted in the last five years for offences such as participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, money laundering or terrorist financing, child labour or other forms of human trafficking, and terrorist offences. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may need to show self-cleaning measures where allowed. The machine-readable notice did not include the full precise list, so the official tender documents must be checked.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The bidder must show a net turnover of at least EUR 180,000 in each of the last three completed financial years; the ESPD must include the turnovers for 2025, 2024 and 2023. To prove technical capability, the bidder must have properly performed at least 2 similar construction contracts within the last 60 months. A similar contract must have been carried out as main contractor or subcontractor for a building or building complex with at least 1,500 m² of enclosed net floor area and must have included either the construction of a new electrical system or the reconstruction of an existing one, including LED fixture installation, or the replacement of fluorescent fixtures with LED fixtures. The bidder must provide a list of the contracts with the partners, contacts, object, floor area and validity period, and, if requested by the contracting authority, a confirmation letter from the client. For the works, a project manager must be engaged with one of the listed qualifications or competence certificates: Construction Engineer level 6 in building construction and construction management, Construction Manager level 6 with general construction specialisation, a Class B competence certificate, or Electrical Engineer level 6 with the relevant specialisation and competence. If the certificate was issued in Estonia, the contracting authority will check it in the public qualification register; if it was issued abroad, the bidder must submit both the foreign authority’s document and the Estonian authority’s confirmation of equivalence. Form 4 must also be submitted for all specialists involved. If the qualification document was issued outside Estonia, the corresponding evidence must be submitted with the tender.
