Compliance requirements
The bidder and its management body members must not have been finally convicted within the last five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, money laundering or terrorist financing, use of child labour or other forms of human trafficking, commission of a terrorist act or offences related to terrorist activity, or any other exclusion grounds listed in the ESPD. If such a ground exists, the bidder may submit evidence of self-cleaning measures where permitted. The compliance conditions also require confirmation of sanctions-related rules: subcontractors or suppliers representing more than 10% of the contract value may not be Russian citizens, residents or entities established in the Russian Federation, entities more than 50% owned by them, or persons acting on their instructions or as their representatives. The bidder must confirm that the offered goods are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned areas. In the case of a joint tender, an authorised representative must be appointed and a power of attorney from the joint bidders must be attached. If needed, trade secrets may be declared and justified, but the tender price and price-related indicators may not be treated as trade secrets.
