Compliance requirements
The tender documents include mandatory exclusion grounds. A bidder must confirm that neither the company nor its managers, legal representatives or supervisory body members have been finally convicted in the last five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering, terrorism financing, child labour or other forms of human trafficking, or that any disqualification period has already expired. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may need to show self-cleaning measures. The exact list should be checked in the official tender documents.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The bidder must, within the 36 months before the publication of the contract notice, have completed as main contractor at least one design assignment for a public building with a closed net floor area of at least 1,000 m2, excluding industrial and warehouse buildings, and the work must have reached at least the basic design stage. To prove this, the bidder must provide the contract object, contract period, building net floor area, client contact details and, for a public contract, the procurement reference number. A bid may be submitted only after a site visit to the contract performance location; the bidder must confirm that the site has been inspected in person. In the case of a joint bid, an authorised representative must be appointed and a power of attorney from the joint bidders must be attached. The bid must comply with all requirements in the tender documents, and conditional bids are not allowed. The machine-readable notice did not include precise qualification or compliance requirements beyond this; they must be checked in the official tender documents.
