Compliance requirements
The machine-readable notice includes the standard exclusion grounds from the Estonian Public Procurement Act, especially convictions for participation in a criminal organisation and corruption. The bidder or its management/representation persons may be excluded if they have a final conviction within the last five years, or if the exclusion period in the judgment is still in force. The notice also mentions the possibility of self-cleaning and, where applicable, proof that remedial measures have been taken. The exact exclusion grounds and any additional details must be checked in the official tender documents.
