Compliance requirements
The machine-readable notice did not include precise exclusion grounds; these must be checked in the tender documents. Under the compliance conditions, the bidder must confirm that it will not use subcontractors or suppliers accounting for more than 10% of the contract value if they are citizens, residents or entities established in the Russian Federation, or persons/entities more than 50% directly or indirectly owned by them or acting on their instructions. The bidder must also confirm that it will not use a subcontractor that would be subject to replacement under Section 122(7) of the Public Procurement Act, and that the offered goods are not subject to international sanctions and do not originate from sanctioned areas. If any of these confirmations is untrue, the bid may be rejected.
