Purchase of an FTIR spectrometer

The tender passport requires the bidder to confirm that neither the company nor its management, supervisory or authorised representatives have relevant final convictions, including participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism-related offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, or the unlawful use of child labour and other forms of human trafficking. The bidder must also disclose relevant convictions, exclusion periods and any reliability-restoration measures where applicable. Exclusion grounds include unpaid taxes or social security contributions, agreements with creditors, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, liquidation, court or liquidator control of assets, suspended business activities, serious professional misconduct, anti-competitive agreements, conflicts of interest, involvement in preparing the procurement, serious or repeated breaches of previous public contracts, false or omitted information, failure to provide requested documents, attempts to obtain confidential information or influence the contracting authority, and breaches of environmental, social or labour-law obligations. National grounds also cover enabling the employment of unlawfully staying foreign nationals, being subject to international sanctions and certain tax offences. The bidder must provide the information and evidence requested in the tender passport and identify authorised persons not visible in the commercial register.

No separate financial-capacity, turnover, previous-experience or staffing qualification requirements are specified in the provided text. The bidder must submit a technical description of the FTIR spectrometer, including the product name, specifications, product sheets and any other information needed to verify technical compliance. The tender must comply with the procurement documents; conditional tenders are not permitted. If an equivalent product or solution is offered, the equivalence must be explained and supported by evidence. In a joint tender, a power of attorney for the joint tenderers must be submitted. The bidder must identify any trade secrets and justify their classification, or state that the tender contains no trade secrets; the tender price and other figures used for evaluation may not be classified as trade secrets. The bidder must confirm that it will not use, for more than 10% of the contract value, subcontractors or suppliers who are Russian citizens, residents or entities established in Russia, or entities owned or controlled by them. The bidder must also confirm that the offered goods are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned regions, and that its registered or residential location is not in the Russian Federation or Belarus. For exclusion-ground checks, the bidder must provide the names and personal identification codes or dates of birth of authorised persons not visible in the commercial register, or confirm that no such persons exist.
