 Verification of non-exclusion of tenderers on the basis of the exclusion criteria 

Selection of tenderers on the basis of selection criteria 

 Verification of compliance with the minimum requirements set out in these tender specifications 

 Evaluation of tenders on the basis of the award criteria 

The contracting authority may reject abnormally low tenders, in particular if it established that the tenderer or a subcontractor does not comply with applicable obligations in the fields of environmental, social and labour law. 

The Contracting Authority will assess these criteria in no particular order. The successful tenderer must pass all criteria to be awarded the contract. 

## 4.1. Verification of non-exclusion 

All tenderers must provide a declaration on honour (see Annex 2), signed and dated by an authorised representative, stating that they are not in one of the situations of exclusion listed in that declaration on honour.

In case of subcontracting, identified subcontractors must provide a declaration on honour signed by an authorised representative.

In such cases, the tenderer must declare on its honour that the documentary evidence has already been provided in a previous procurement procedure, indicate the reference of the procedure and confirm that that there has been no change in its situation. 

A tenderer (or a member of the group in case of joint tender, or a subcontractor) is not required to submit a specific document if the contracting authority can access the document in question on a national database free of charge. 

## 4.2. Selection criteria 

Tenderers must prove their legal, regulatory, economic, financial, technical and professional capacity to carry out the work subject to this procurement procedure.
