Compliance requirements
The tender notice includes mandatory exclusion grounds for convictions related to participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud and the other standard grounds listed in the ESPD.

The exact exclusion grounds and any recovery/self-cleaning details must be checked in the official tender documents.

If equivalence is relied on, it must be explained and supporting evidence must be attached.
