In the case of a joint bid, the exclusion grounds are checked for each joint bidder. The exact verification conditions and procedure are described in the procurement documents.

The bidder must be registered in the business register for construction activities covering general construction, indoor climate systems, and internal or adjacent water supply or sewerage systems. For electrical works, the bidder must also have a registration for electrical works covering the construction and installation of electrical installations. The registration requirement does not apply to a foreign bidder, but equivalent competence must be demonstrated. The bidder’s net turnover for the financial year preceding the start of the procurement procedure must be at least equal to twice the estimated contract value excluding VAT. The estimated contract value is based on the apartment building reconstruction works with the highest value. Within the 60 months before the start of the procurement procedure, the bidder must have carried out at least one equivalent construction project with a value of at least half of the estimated contract value excluding VAT. An equivalent project must have been the construction, extension or full-building reconstruction of a building as the main contractor and must have included at least the construction or reconstruction of the building’s load-bearing and external envelope structures, the construction or reconstruction of a heat-recovery mechanical ventilation system, or the construction or reconstruction of a new heating system. To prove this, the bidder must provide the project name, building details, execution period, value excluding VAT, and evidence of the handover certificate, occupancy notice/permit, or acceptance act. The team must include a project manager with at least level 6 construction engineer qualification specialising in building construction, or level 6 construction manager qualification specialising in general construction. There must also be a site manager with at least level 5 construction foreman qualification specialising in general construction works. In addition, the team must include a ventilation and heating systems specialist, a water supply and sewerage systems specialist, and, for electrical works, a competent person. For each role, the bidder must provide the person’s first and last name and the number of the professional or competence certificate. Equivalent competence is accepted for foreign bidders. The tender must comply with the procurement documents, conditional tenders are not allowed, the tender must be submitted on the forms prepared by the beneficiary, and in the case of a joint bid or an authorised representative, the relevant power of attorney must be attached. If team members are not employees of the bidder, their written consent must be attached. The bidder must also confirm compliance with equivalence requirements and, where necessary, attach supporting evidence. In addition, a 5% performance security must be provided upon contract award and must remain valid throughout the construction period.
