Expert review of the construction design for the Osula school building

A bidder may be excluded if it, a member of its administrative, management or supervisory body, or its representative has, within the past five years, been finally convicted of participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences or offences related to terrorist activities, money laundering or terrorist financing, illegal use of child labour or human trafficking; exclusion also applies where a disqualification period imposed by a court judgment remains in force. Grounds for exclusion also include breaches of tax or social security contribution obligations, a conviction for enabling a foreign national residing in the country without legal grounds to work or for breaching the conditions for employing a foreign national in Estonia, and being subject to an international sanction. In Estonia, a tax-debt certificate is not issued where the debt for taxes administered by the same tax authority is under EUR 100 or its payment has been rescheduled. A foreign bidder’s tax debt is assessed under the law of its country of establishment. The bidder must provide the required confirmation and, where applicable, explanations and information on measures taken to restore its reliability.

The selected documents do not specify particular bidder qualification or suitability criteria. The service must comply with the requirements applicable in Estonia to expert reviews of construction designs, and the design must meet the requirements of Regulation No. 62 of the Minister of Economic Affairs and Infrastructure of 8 June 2015, “Requirements for the Expert Review of a Construction Design.” The bid must be unconditional, and the bidder must confirm acceptance of the tender-document conditions. The price must be submitted using the structure in the buyer’s worksheet for award criteria and price-related data. For a joint bid, a power of attorney for the joint bidders must be included where applicable.
