selection criteria will be applied to the consortium as a whole:
1) Economic and financial capacity of tenderer (based on i.a. item 3 of
the tender form for a supply contract):
(a) the average annual turnover of the tenderer for the last 2 years (2004
and 2005) must be at least 2 times the submitted financial proposal;
(b) the cash and cash equivalents of tenderer at the beginning of this
year, last year and the year before last (2004, 2005, 2006) are positive;
(c) the cash and cash equivalents of tenderer at the end of last year and
the year before last (2004 and 2005) are positive.

of the links which it has with them. It must in that case prove to the
contracting authority that it will have at its disposal the resources
necessary for performance of the contract, for example by producing an
undertaking on the part of those entities to place those resources at its
