execution of a procurement contract or a grant agreement or decision.
10. Number of tenders: Tenderers may submit only 1 tender per lot.
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 2 300
EUR for lot 1, 600 EUR for lot 2, 8 800 EUR for lot 3 when submitting

will be called upon if the tenderer does not fulfil all obligations stated
in its tender.
12. Performance guarantee: The successful tenderer will be asked to
provide a performance guarantee of 10 % of the amount of the contract at
the signing of the contract. This guarantee must be provided together with
the return of the countersigned contract no later than 30 days after the
tenderer receives the contract signed by the contracting authority. If the
selected tenderer fails to provide such a guarantee within this period,
the contract will be void and a new contract may be drawn up and sent to
the tenderer which has submitted the next cheapest compliant tender.

include delivery period of 60 days for all of the lots.
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). In case of the tenderer being a
public body, equivalent information should be provided:
(a) the annual turnover of the tenderer for the year 2008 (2007 is
considered to be the year before last year and 2008 is considered to be
last year) must be at least 2 times of the submitted financial proposal;
(b) the cash and cash equivalents of the tenderer at the end of year 2007
and year 2008 were positive.
2) Technical capacity of tenderer (based on i.a. items 5 and 6 of the
tender form for a supply contract):
(a) if applying for the lots No 2 and No 3, the tenderer has successfully
completed at least 1 contract in the field(s) specifically related to
these lots: (supply of drug detection system if applying for lot 2 and/or
supply of laboratory equipment if applying for lot 3) with the budget of
at least that of his financial proposal for these lots in 2006, 2007 or
2008 (in case of other lots the technical capacity is not required).
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, for instance the parent company of the economic
operator, must respect the same rules of eligibility and notably that of
nationality, as the economic operator.
17. Award criteria: Price.
