to all legal entities, irrespective of whether they are taking part as
individuals or as part of a grouping (consortium) of tenderers, from the
European Union Member States and from the countries and territories of the
regions covered and/or authorised by the specific instruments applicable
to the aid programme under which the contract is financed (see point 22).
All the goods supplied under this contract must originate in 1 or more of

Participation of natural persons is governed by the instrument that
specifically applies to the programme under which the contract is
financed.

included with the tender form for a supplies contract, confirming that
they are not in any of the situations listed in section 2.3.3 of the
Practical Guide to contract procedures in the context of external actions.
10. Number of tenders: Tenderers cannot submit more than 1 tender per
lot. Tenders for part of a lot will not be considered. Tenderers may state
in their tender whether they would grant a discount should they be awarded
several lots. Tenderers cannot submit a variant tender in addition to
their tender for the supplies required in the invitation to tender
dossier.
11. Tender guarantee: Tenderers must provide a tender guarantee for EUR 2
500 when they submit their tender. This will be returned to unsuccessful

parties. This guarantee will be drawn on if the tenderer does not honour
all the obligations stipulated in the invitation to tender.
12. Performance bond: The successful tenderer will be required to provide
a performance bond for 10 % of the contract value when the contract is
signed. The tenderer will have 30 days from the date on which he receives
the contract signed by the contracting authority in which to furnish the
bond along with the countersigned contract. If the successful tenderer

of contract signature and the date of provisional acceptance of the

Selection and award criteria
16. Selection criteria: The following selection criteria will be applied
to tenderers. Where tenders are submitted by a consortium, these criteria
will apply to the consortium as a whole.
(1) Tenderers' economic and financial capacity:
(a) their average turnover for the past 3 years (2005, 2006, 2007) must be
greater than the financial proposal in the tender;
(b) their cash and cash equivalents at the end of the past 3 financial
years, and forecasts for the current financial year, must show a surplus.
(2) Tenderers' professional capacity:
(a) they must have the relevant professional certification for this
contract to supply vehicles;

(3) Tenderers' technical capacity:
they must have successfully completed at least 2 contracts in the past 3
years with a budget at least equal to that of this contract.
Economic operators may, if necessary and for a specific contract, make use
of the capacities of other bodies irrespective of the legal nature of the
connection between themselves and said bodies. In such an event, they must
provide the contracting authority with proof that they will have the
resources needed to carry out the contract by, for example, producing a
written commitment by said bodies to make such resources available. These
entities, e.g. economic operators' parent companies, must observe the same
eligibility rules, notably regarding nationality, as the economic
operators themselves.
17. Award criteria: The sole award criterion will be price. The
lowest-priced tender deemed to be compliant will be accepted.
