Compliance requirements
The exclusion grounds cover the usual criminal conviction grounds and other grounds laid down by law, including participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, and offences related to terrorist acts or terrorist activities. In the ESPD, the bidder must also confirm that it is not subject to sanctions and that it does not use prohibited subcontractors or suppliers for contract performance. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may in certain cases submit evidence of self-cleaning, but the exact conditions must be checked in the tender documents.
