Additional information

1) Tenderers must declare the absence of the exclusion grounds stated in sections 123 et seq. of the Act against Restraints of Competition (ARC). In addition, tenderers shall, for the purpose of implementing Art. 5k (1) of Regulation (EU) No 833/2014 as amended by Art. 1 No. 25 of Council Regulation (EU) 2025/395 of 24 February 2025, declare that they are not a person with relations to the Russian Federation within the meaning of Art. 5k (1) of Regulation (EU) No 833/2014 and will not subcontract services to such a person. For this purpose the form "Declaration on the absence of grounds for exclusion" must be used 2) Tenderers may refer to the capacities of third parties under the conditions of section 47 of the Procurement Ordinance (Vergabeverordnung - VgV). 3) It is admissible to participate as a bidding consortium. A bidding consortium is treated
legally like a single tenderer. Insofar as tenderers are mentioned in this contract notice or in the procurement documents, this refers to both individual tenderers and bidding consortia. In the request to participate, members of the consortium must name an authorised representative. The authorised representative is available as contact person for the consortium in this procurement procedure. The eligibility review shall be carried out taking into account all documents submitted by the bidding consortium. The suitability to pursue the professional activity and the absence of grounds for exclusion under section 123 ARC and section 124 ARC must be proven individually for each member of a bidding consortium. With regard to the other eligibility criteria, the bidding consortium as a whole is subject of the eligibility review. For this reason, each member completes the declaration on eligibility only to the extent that it applies to that member. If and insofar as members refer to third parties' capacities, the declaration on third parties' capacities must also be completed and submitted. The eligibility review shall take into account all documents submitted by the bidding consortium.
