Compliance requirements
The bidder must confirm that neither the bidder, its management or supervisory board members, nor persons authorised to represent or control it have received a final conviction within the last five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, or the use of child labour or other forms of human trafficking. The bidder must also not have breached its obligations to pay taxes or social security contributions, enabled an unlawfully staying foreign national to work, be subject to an international sanction, or have a local tax debt covered by the tender documents. Where an exclusion ground applies, the required explanations and evidence must be provided; in certain cases, evidence of remedial measures restoring reliability may also be submitted. For tax and social security obligations, the document states a EUR 100 tax-debt threshold and allows for obligations that have been rescheduled or paid to be taken into account.
