The contracting authority will exclude a bidder if any of the exclusion grounds under Section 95(1) points 1–5 of the Estonian Public Procurement Act apply. In plain terms, this covers convictions of the bidder’s management or authorised representatives for organised crime, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering or terrorist financing; convictions for enabling illegal work or violating rules on the employment of foreigners, including paying less than the statutory wage; convictions for illegal use of child labour or human trafficking; tax, environmental charge or social security contribution arrears; and situations where awarding the contract would breach an international sanction or a sanction of the Government of Estonia. The bidder must confirm that none of these exclusion grounds apply.

The bidder must be registered in the commercial register of its country of establishment if this is required by that country’s law, and must provide proof of registration if it is not an Estonian company. The bidder or its subcontractor must have properly performed at least one similar contract within the last 60 months before the start of the procurement, covering installation, reconstruction or modernisation of security systems, including installation or upgrading of video surveillance, access control or perimeter security systems. The bidder and/or its subcontractor must have qualified responsible persons for the works: a person responsible for installation works with at least the professional qualification ‘Security Systems Technician, Level 4’ (or equivalent) and a person managing electrical works with at least a Class B competence certificate (or equivalent). The bidder must submit Form 2, the list of contracts, Form 3, the list of responsible specialists, and copies of documents proving the required competence. A foreign bidder that does not have the responsible person documents issued under Estonian regulations must submit copies of the equivalent documents issued under the laws of its country of establishment and a confirmation that it will submit, within one month after signing the contract, the confirmation issued by the Consumer Protection and Technical Regulatory Authority.
