Compliance requirements
The tender documents include the standard exclusion grounds, especially convictions for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud and other mandatory grounds under the procurement rules. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may be allowed to provide evidence of self-cleaning where the procurement documents or the applicable rules permit it. The machine-readable notice did not include the full list in the excerpt, so the exact exclusion grounds must be checked in the official tender documents.
