The bidder may be excluded for relevant final convictions involving participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, or child labour and human trafficking. These grounds can also apply to members of the bidder’s management or supervisory bodies and persons authorised to represent, decide for or control the bidder. The notice refers to convictions within the preceding five years or an exclusion period that remains in force. Other grounds include unpaid taxes or social-security contributions; breaches of environmental, social or labour obligations; bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, creditor arrangements, administration of assets by a liquidator or court, or suspension of business; serious professional misconduct; agreements intended to distort competition; an unmitigable conflict of interest; involvement in preparing the procurement that creates an advantage which cannot otherwise be addressed; serious or persistent failures under previous contracts resulting in termination, damages, price reductions or penalties; false or misleading information, withholding information, failure to provide required documents, or improper attempts to influence the procurement or obtain confidential information. The grounds also include enabling unlawful employment of a foreign national, being subject to applicable international or Estonian sanctions, and any relevant local-tax arrears or restrictions on the right to participate set out in the tender documents. Where applicable, the bidder may provide evidence of remedial measures demonstrating restored reliability.
