Basic Digital Skills Training

A bidder will be excluded if the bidder or a person with management or representation authority has been convicted of participating in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism-related offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, enabling illegal employment or breaches of rules on the employment of foreign nationals, or illegal use of child labour or human trafficking. Grounds for exclusion also include unpaid national taxes, duties or environmental charges, a breach of international or government sanctions, and a legal prohibition on submitting a tender. The contracting authority may exclude a bidder for breaches of environmental, social or labour-law obligations; bankruptcy or liquidation; serious professional misconduct; unpaid local taxes; anti-competitive conduct; an unavoidable conflict of interest; obtaining an undue advantage in the procurement; material breach of a previous public contract; submission of false information; or misleading information intended to influence the contracting authority. The bidder must confirm that no exclusion grounds apply. If the bidder relies on another entity’s resources, it must also provide the required confirmation for that entity.

The bidder must meet the following requirements for Lots 1–4 (Põlva, the two Pärnu lots and Jõgeva): - The bidder must not have materially breached administrative contracts or be in circumstances that could lead to permanent insolvency or cessation of business.
