Compliance requirements
The tender documents include the usual mandatory exclusion grounds, including convictions for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud and other serious offences. The bidder must also confirm that it has taken no prohibited part in the performance of the contract through certain Russian-linked subcontractors or suppliers above the stated threshold, and that the offered goods are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned areas. If an exclusion ground applies, the bidder may provide evidence of self-cleaning where allowed. The exact exclusion grounds and confirmations must be checked in the official tender documents.
