The bidder must confirm that neither it nor its management, supervisory or controlling body members, procurators or other authorised representatives have been finally convicted within the last 5 years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud or other exclusion grounds listed in the ESPD. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may submit evidence of self-cleaning measures, where permitted. The compliance conditions also include a sanctions requirement: the bidder confirms that it will not involve subcontractors or suppliers accounting for more than 10% of the contract value who are citizens, residents or entities established in the Russian Federation, or persons or entities owned by or acting on behalf of such persons or entities. The contracting authority may reject a tender if the resulting contract would be void due to sanctions rules. The machine-readable notice did not include precise exclusion grounds; these must be checked in the procurement documents.
