Tenders for parts of a lot will not be considered. Any tenderer may state
in its tender that it would offer a discount in the event that its tender
is accepted for more than 1 lot. Tenderers may not submit a tender for a
variant solution in addition to their tender for the supplies required in
the tender dossier.
11. Tender guarantee: Tenderers must provide a tender guarantee of EUR 2

Selection and award criteria
16. Selection criteria: The following selection criteria will be applied
to tenderers. In the case of tenders submitted by a consortium, these
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 annual turnover of the tenderer for the last year (2006) must
exceed the submitted financial proposal;
(b) cash and cash equivalents of the tenderer at the end of the last year
and the year before last (2006, 2005) are positive.

tender form for a supply contract):
(a) the tenderer has successfully completed at least 1 contract with a
budget of at least that of this contract during the period covering the
past 3 years (2004–2006).
An economic operator may, where appropriate and for a particular contract,
rely on the capacities of other entities, regardless of the legal nature
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
disposal. Such entities must respect the same rules of eligibility and
notably that of nationality, as the economic operator.
