Purchase of sleeping supplies

The bidder must confirm that neither the bidder nor its management, administrative or supervisory body members, procurators or other authorised representatives have been finally convicted in the last five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering, child labour offences or human trafficking, where those grounds apply. If any exclusion ground exists, the bidder may submit evidence of self-cleaning measures where permitted. The bidder must also confirm that it will not use subcontractors or suppliers accounting for more than 10% of the contract value if they are Russian nationals, residents or entities established in the Russian Federation, or persons/entities owned or controlled by them, and that the offered goods are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned areas.

The machine-readable notice did not include precise qualification, suitability or compliance criteria; these must be checked in the tender documents. The ESPD and tender documents do, however, require the bidder to confirm the exclusion grounds, the bid compliance statements and the required price submission format, including confirmation that equivalence is explained and supported by evidence where relevant.
