Participation is also open to international organisations.
12.Candidature:
All eligible natural and legal persons (as per item 11 above) or groupings of such persons (consortia) may apply.
A consortium may be a permanent, legally-established grouping or a grouping which has been constituted informally for a specific tender procedure. All members of a consortium (i.e., the leader and all other members) are jointly and severally liable to the contracting authority.
The participation of an ineligible natural or legal person (as per item 11) will result in the automatic exclusion of that person. In particular, if that ineligible person belongs to a consortium, the whole consortium will be excluded.
13.Number of applications:
No more than 1 application can be submitted by a natural or legal person whatever the form of participation (as an individual legal entity or as a leader or member of a consortium submitting an application). In the event that a natural or legal person submits more than 1 application, all applications in which that person has participated will be excluded.
14.Shortlist alliances prohibited:
Any tenders received from tenderers comprising firms other than those mentioned in the shortlisted application forms will be excluded from this restricted tender procedure unless prior approval from the contracting authority has been obtained (see ‘Practical Guide’ — PRAG — 2.4.3). Shortlisted candidates may not form alliances or subcontract to each other for the contract in question.
15.Grounds for exclusion:
As part of the application form, candidates must submit a signed declaration, included in the standard application form, to the effect that they are not in any of the exclusion situations listed in Section 2.3.3 of the PRAG.
16.Subcontracting:
Subcontracting is allowed.
17.Number of candidates to be shortlisted:
On the basis of the applications received, between 4 and 8 candidates will be invited to submit detailed tenders for this contract. If the number of eligible candidates meeting the selection criteria is less than the minimum of 4, the contracting authority may invite the candidates who satisfy the criteria to submit a tender.


Provisional timetable

18.Provisional date of invitation to tender:
26.1.2017.
19.Provisional commencement date of the contract:
1.4.2017.
20.Initial period of implementation of tasks:
The guarding services are to commence on 1.4.2017 for a 12-month period. The contracting authority may renew the contract for a further 12 months but it depends on the renewal of the EUPOL COPPS mandate and the availability of budgetary funds.


Selection and award criteria

21.Selection criteria:
The following selection criteria will be applied to candidates. In the case of applications submitted by consortium, these selection criteria will be applied to the consortium as a whole:
1) Economic and financial capacity of candidate:
In the case of the applicant being a public body equivalent information should be provided:
the average annual turnover of the candidate must exceed the annualised maximum budget of the contract for the last 3 years (i.e. for 2013, 2014 and 2015).
2) Professional capacity of candidate:
1. has a professional certificate appropriate to this contract, such as a certificate of official registration and operating licence as a private security company;
2. at least 20 staff currently work for the applicant in fields related to this contract.
3) Technical capacity of candidate:
1. has worked successfully on at least 3 projects with a budget of at least that of this contract (annualised maximum budget) in fields related to this contract in the past 3 years;
2. 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. Some examples of when it may not be considered appropriate by the contracting authority are when the tenderers rely in majority on the capacities of other entities or when they rely on key criteria. If the candidate relies on other entities 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. Furthermore, the data for this third entity for the relevant selection criterion should be included in the tender in a separate document. Proof of the capacity will also have to be furnished when requested by the contracting authority.
If more than 8 eligible candidates meet the above selection criteria, the relative strengths and weaknesses of the applications of these candidates must be re-examined to identify the best 8 applications for the tender procedure. The only factors which will be taken into consideration during this re-examination are:
1) the number of projects related to this contract completed in the last 3 years;
2) in the case of equal number of projects, the total amount (in euros) of the projects completed in the last 3 years.
22.Award criteria:
Best value for money.
