The bidder must be able, by the contract date or within 10 calendar days after signing, to provide a performance guarantee equal to 5% of the contract value, either as a bank/financial institution guarantee or by depositing the corresponding amount to the beneficiary’s bank account or a notary account, with the beneficiary as the entitled party throughout the construction period. The bidder must have completed at least 1 equivalent construction project during the 60 months before the start of the procurement procedure, as main contractor, with a value of at least half of the estimated contract value excluding VAT. The equivalent project must involve building erection, extension and/or full-building reconstruction and must include at least structural and external envelope works, heat-recovery ventilation works, and heating system works. The bidder must provide the project name, timing, value, whether it was erection/extension/full reconstruction as main contractor, and whether it included the required works, together with proof such as a handover-acceptance act or a reference to the building register use notice or occupancy permit number.
