Procurement of a material handling machine

The machine-readable notice did not include precise exclusion grounds; these must be checked in the official tender documents. The compliance section requires the bidder to confirm that no more than 10% of the contract value will be performed by subcontractors or suppliers who are Russian nationals, residents, or entities established in the Russian Federation, or who are more than 50% owned by such persons or entities, or who act on their instructions. The bidder must also confirm that the offered goods are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned areas.

The bidder must have an average annual turnover of at least EUR 300,000 from heavy equipment sales over the last three years (2023–2025). The contracting authority may request supporting evidence during qualification. The bidder for the offered machine must have factory-backed sales and service capability in Estonia and the relevant operating licence or permit. The machine-readable notice did not set out the exact proof format in full, so this must be checked in the tender documents.
