Compliance requirements
The bidder must confirm that neither the bidder nor its representatives or members of its management or supervisory bodies have been finally convicted within the last five years of participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism-related offences, money laundering, terrorist financing, child labour or human trafficking offences. The bidder must also have no outstanding tax or social security payment debt; for tax debt, the notice specifies a threshold of EUR 100, except where the debt has been deferred. The exclusion grounds also cover breaches of environmental, social and labour-law obligations, bankruptcy or liquidation, suspended business activities, serious professional misconduct, anti-competitive agreements, conflicts of interest, previous material contract breaches, and the submission of false information or failure to provide required documents. The notice also addresses unlawful employment of foreign nationals, compliance with international or Estonian sanctions, and convictions for tax offences. The bidder must provide the required declarations in the ESPD and, where necessary, supporting evidence; measures taken to restore reliability may be described where applicable.
