Compliance requirements
The bidder must confirm that none of the exclusion grounds set out in Section 95(1) of the Public Procurement Act apply to it. The contracting authority may also exclude a bidder if a ground under Section 95(4) applies. Before contract award, the contracting authority will verify, on the basis of evidence, at least the absence of the exclusion grounds referred to in Section 95(1).
The bidder must also confirm the sanctions-related conditions: it must not involve subcontractors or suppliers accounting for more than 10% of the contract value if they are linked to the Russian Federation in the manner described, and the offered goods must not be the object of international sanctions or originate from sanctioned territories. If more detailed checking is needed, the tender documents must be consulted.
Qualification criteria and exclusion grounds
The bidder, and in a joint bid all joint bidders, must hold on the submission date an operating licence for outpatient pulmonary services, and the licence must cover all service locations. The bidder must provide the licence number and confirm that the service will be delivered in the premises on which the licence is based.
The bidder’s 2025 net turnover from healthcare services must be at least EUR 207,530. The required turnover is calculated for one doctor working full-time in outpatient care and increases proportionally with the number of doctors and the workload offered.
On the submission date, the bidder must have a working spirometer at each service location where it intends to provide pulmonology services. The bidder must provide the service locations, the serial numbers of the working spirometers, copies of the purchase, lease, rental, free-use or other ownership documents for the device, and a photo showing the device’s unique serial number.
The bidder must have provided outpatient pulmonology services at least 50 times during the 12 months before the date of the decision to announce the procurement. The bidder must also confirm that it has the required experience or readiness to provide e-consultations through the health information system, where this applies to the specialty.
To submit the tender, the bidder must complete the tender form and attach the doctors’ confirmation, the healthcare institution’s confirmation and any other documents required in the tender form. In a joint bid, a power of attorney from the joint bidders must be attached. If needed, a voluntary application for additional services may also be submitted.
