Selection and award criteria

16.Selection criteria:

The following selection criteria will apply to tenderers. Where tenders are submitted by a consortium, these criteria will apply to the consortium as a whole, unless otherwise specified. The selection criteria will apply neither to natural persons nor single-member companies acting as subcontractors:
1) Tenderer's economic and financial capacity (based on point 3 of the tender form for a supplies contract). Should the tenderer be a public body, equivalent information must be submitted. The reference period corresponds to the last 3 financial years for which accounts have been closed.
Criteria for legal entities:
the selection criteria applicable to tenderers for lot 1 are as follows:
1. the tenderer's average annual turnover must exceed 150 000 EUR; and
2. the ratio of short-term assets to short-term liabilities must be at least 1 for the last financial year for which accounts have been closed;
the selection criteria applicable to tenderers for lot 2 are as follows:
1. the tenderer's average annual turnover must exceed 200 000 EUR; and
2. the ratio of short-term assets to short-term liabilities must be at least 1 for the last financial year for which accounts have been closed.
2) Tenderer's professional capacity (based on points 4 and 5 of the tender form for a supplies contract). The reference period corresponds to the last 3 financial years for which accounts have been closed.
Criteria for legal entities:
the selection criteria applicable to tenderers for lot 1 are as follows:
1. at least 3 people on the tenderer's staff must be currently working in the fields related to the contract to supply computer and office-automation equipment;
2. at least 3 people on the tenderer's staff must be currently working in the field of after-sales services for computer and office-automation equipment;
the selection criteria applicable to tenderers for lot 2 are as follows:
1. at least 3 people on the tenderer's staff must be currently working in the fields related to the contract to supply vehicles;
2. at least 3 people on the tenderer's staff must be currently working in the field of after-sales services for vehicles.
3) Tenderer's technical capacity (based on points 5 and 6 of the tender form for a supplies contract). The reference period corresponds to the last 3 financial years for which accounts have been closed.
This means that the contract(s) to which the tenderer refers may have begun or been completed at any time during the period given, but need not have begun and been completed during this period, or have been carried out during the whole of said period. The tenderer may refer to projects completed in the reference period (even if the project began before that period) or ongoing projects. In the first case, the project will be considered in its entirety, subject to proof that it was carried out satisfactorily (declaration from the relevant contracting authority, final acceptance). In the case of an ongoing project, only the part satisfactorily completed in the reference period will be taken into account, subject to adequate proof being provided and details being given as to the value of the part that was satisfactorily completed.
Criteria for legal entities:
the selection criteria applicable to tenderers for lot 1 are as follows:
1. the tenderer must have delivered supplies under at least 3 contracts with a budget of at least 150 000 EUR. These contracts must have been in the field of supplying computer and office-automation equipment and carried out during the following period: 2014–2016;
the selection criteria applicable to tenderers for lot 2 are as follows:
1. the tenderer must have delivered supplies under at least 3 contracts with a budget of at least 200 000 EUR. These contracts must have been in the field of supplying vehicles and carried out during the following period: 2014–2016.
Capacity providing entities
An economic operator may, if necessary and for a specific contract, make use of the capacities of other entities irrespective of the legal nature of the connection between itself and said entities. As an example, the contracting authority may consider it inappropriate if the tender relies, for the main part, on the capacities of other entities or calls on them for key criteria. If the capacities of other entities are relied upon, the tenderer must, in that case, provide the contracting authority with proof that it will have the resources needed to perform the contract by, for example, producing an undertaking from said entities to place those resources at its disposal. These entities, e.g. the economic operator's parent company, must observe the same eligibility rules, notably regarding nationality, as the economic operator in question. Furthermore, the information relating to this third entity/these third entities for the relevant selection criteria must be included in a separate document. Proof of their capacity must also be provided when requested by the contracting authority.
With regard to the technical and professional criteria, a tenderer may only use the capacities of other entities if they perform the tasks for which said capacities are required.
With regard to the economic and financial criteria, the entities whose capacities the tenderer uses become jointly and severally liable for contract performance.
