Compliance requirements
The tender documents include the standard exclusion grounds, especially convictions related to participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud and other mandatory grounds under the Public Procurement Act. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may have to show self-cleaning measures. The machine-readable notice did not include the full list in the excerpt, so the exact grounds must be checked in the tender documents.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The machine-readable notice did not include precise selection, suitability or compliance requirements; these must be checked in the tender documents. The compliance conditions do state that the tender must meet all tender documents, conditional tenders are not allowed, and in a joint tender a authorised representative must be appointed and a power of attorney from the joint bidders must be attached. For the furniture, the bidder must confirm the use of legally sourced wood, declaration of REACH candidate substances, that the furniture can be dismantled and repaired, a warranty of at least 2 years, and the availability of spare parts or equivalent components for at least two years after delivery of the furniture.
