Compliance requirements
The bidder must confirm that neither it nor its management, administrative or supervisory body members, procurators or other authorised representatives have been finally convicted within the last five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, or any other exclusion ground named in the tender documents. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may submit evidence of self-cleaning measures where permitted. The ESPD also requires answers on whether the information is electronically available and, where relevant, reference details, codes and issuer information.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The bidder must have professional liability insurance covering risks arising from waste treatment. For lot 1, the insurance sum must be at least EUR 60,000; for lot 2, at least EUR 30,000. The bidder must confirm in the ESPD that the insurance exists or can be arranged and, if requested, provide a copy of the policy or the insurer’s confirmation. In addition, the bidder must have treated mixed municipal waste at a rate of at least 12,000 tonnes per year during the 36 months before the contract notice was published. According to the compliance conditions, the tender must be submitted by the legal representative or an authorised representative; if an authorised representative signs, a power of attorney must be included. In a joint tender, the authorised representative of the consortium must be named and the consortium power of attorney must be attached. The bidder must confirm that the tender complies with the procurement documents, submit the tender price form, and confirm that the waste will be treated at a compliant waste treatment site with an environmental permit. The bidder must provide the site name, permit number, treatment capacity and a description of the treatment technology.
