Compliance requirements
The tenderer must confirm that neither the tenderer nor any entity whose resources it relies on has any exclusion grounds under § 95(1) of the Public Procurement Act. The notice also states that bidders with a place of residence or establishment in the Russian Federation or the Republic of Belarus may not participate, and the same applies to any relied-on entity under § 103(1).
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The bidder’s net turnover for each of the last two completed financial years must be at least EUR 100,000; assuming a calendar financial year, these are 2025 and 2024. Within the 60 months before the publication date of the contract notice, the bidder must have completed at least one similar construction project. A similar project means general repair or renovation works on an existing building that included at least two of the following: façade works, roof works, interior finishing works, installation of floor coverings, or restoration of structures. The bidder must submit Form 1 with the data needed to verify qualification and the list of completed contracts. For the execution of the works, the bidder must involve a site manager who must hold either the qualification certificate “Construction Engineer, level 6” in the specialty “Building Construction” in the occupation “Management of Construction Activities”, or the qualification certificate “Construction Manager, level 6” with the specialisation “General Construction”, covering at least stone and concrete structure construction and façade works, or an equivalent. If the certificate was issued in Estonia, the contracting authority will verify it through the public qualification register; if it was issued abroad, the bidder must submit a copy issued by the competent authority and a document from the competent Estonian authority proving equivalence. The bidder must submit Form 4 and, where applicable, the additional documents proving foreign qualifications. If the bid is joint, Form 8 must be submitted together with the power of attorney and the confirmation of joint and several liability. If precise requirements are only in the tender documents, they must be checked there.
