V. Exclusion criteria

REQUIREMENT

The contracting body shall provide the exclusion grounds and selection criteria for its tendering process as structured information – via ESPD template or structured list of criteria set out in a call for tender.

REQUIREMENT tbr070-009

The ESPD request must contain information about the criteria that set the exclusion grounds as stated in directive 2014/24/EU Art. 57 and referred to in directive 2014/25/EU Art. 80 and/or according to national legislation. These should be retrieved from e-Certis.

REQUIREMENT

For Procurement Projects where the value of the contract is above the threshold, all ESPDRespone XML documents MUST specify all the exclusion criteria defined in the Annex 2 of the Regulation 2016/7.

Differences between Basic and Extended exclusion criteria

As far as the data structures of exclusion criteria are concerned there are practically not differences between a Basic ESPD and a Extended ESPD.

The only two differences lie in:

The way the criteria are worded; e.g. the description of a conviction criterion reads like this in the two cases:
- Basic ESPD Request: Has the economic operator, to its knowledge, breached its obligations in the field of environmental law? As referred to for the purposes of this procurement in national law, in the relevant notice or the procurement documents or in Article 18(2) of Directive 2014/24/EU.
- Extended ESPD Request: Has the economic operator, to its knowledge, breached its obligations in the field of environmental law? As referred to for the purposes of this procurement in this ESPD document and in the national law, in the relevant notice or the procurement documents or in Article 18(2) of Directive 2014/24/EU.
The criterion 'Contributions' (i.e. Payment of Taxes and Social Security Contributions) adds a national REQUIREMENT to set the minimum threshold of debt for taxes or social security that is allowed in the Member State.

As suggested in section "Criteria Data Structures" criteria may be grouped in several different categories. The figure below is intended to identify and list these categories for the Exclusion criteria (branches in text boxes), and specific subgroups within each category (leaves in text without boxes).

Each branch in this 'criteria taxonomy' corresponds to one data structure that is identical for all the leaves under that branch (e.g. compare the names of the boxes with the tabs of the spreadsheets containing the Basic and Extended taxonomies).

Figure 1. Exclusion criteria taxonomy

V.1 Convictions

Information requirement

See formal requirements related to exclusion grounds criteria in the BIS 41 - European Single Procurement Document (Version 2.0.0), and more specifically tbr070-013.

Differences between Basic and Extended

The only difference between Basic and Extended concerning conviction criteria is that the Extended ESPD allow Member States to link national sub-criteria to the EU conviction criterion. Thus:
- For Basic ESPDs the XML file will not contain the national criteria specified in e-Certis. See the figure showing the data structure for Basic ESPDs.
- For Extended ESPDs the XML will contain the national criteria and also the QUESTION for the economic operator to answer whether it fulfills the national criterion or not. See the figure showing the data structure for Extended ESPDs below.
The label ''Convictions'' groups all the criteria with identical data structures classified as:
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.CONVICTIONS.*: ''participation in a criminal organisation'', ''corruption'', ''fraud'', ''terrorist offences linked to terrorist activities'', ''money laundering or terrorist financing'', ''child labour and other forms of trafficking in human beings''.

Note about the ESPD Service

If you are using the ESPD Service developed by the European Commission you will observe the label 'More information >>' on the left side of the mock-up. If you click on it the national criteria defined by the MS in the e-Certis will be shown. However you must be warned that, as the EC ESPD Service does only implement the Basic ESPD V1.0.2 the national criterion will not be saved into the exported XML instance.

Mock-ups - economic operator perspective

The figure below shows the GUI presented by the ESPD Service. Beware that the XML example we provide in this guide is based on the ESPD Request V2.1.1, which does allow the possibility of saving the national criteria, contrary to the ESPD V1.0.2.

Beware that this mock-up is not showing the national criteria. For this mock-up it is presumed that by answering 'Yes' to the general EU criterion all the national criteria QUESTION 'Your answer' will be also set to 'Yes'.

Figure 2. Conviction 'Participation in criminal organisation', mock-up (EO perspective)

Data structure - Basic

Notice that the only difference between the Basic and the Extended structures is that the Basic one does not contain a 'national sub-criterion'.

<!-- ... the rest of elements in the QualificationApplicationRequest document omitted for brevity -->

1	Date of conviction, see mock-up. Mandatory format 'YYYY-MM-DD'
2	The reason of convictions, see mock-up. A descriptive text.
3	The natural person or legal entity convicted. A text.
4	Length of the period of exclusion. A `cac:Period` will be used in the response by the economic operator. The EO may specify a starting date and an end-date or, alternatively, a text to commenting the length. See XML example in the ESPD Response section.
5	If the answer is No the QUESTION 'Please describe them' should not be shown.
6	Text box to describe the measures to demonstrate the economic operator’s reliability.
7	A whole group related to one conviction can be repeated multiple times (or deleted).
8	If answered as No the group of QUESTION(s) relating the online evidence should not be shown. Beware that the ESPD Response behaves totally differently as far as evidences are concerned. The data concerning the evidence in the ESPDRequest document is placed in the ESPD Response document in a component `cac:Evidence` in a different manner. See the section `ESPD Response` for more details on this. See also the XML examples.
9	The URL where to access the evidence. Will be placed in an element of the object `cac:Evidence`. See chapter "VIII.8 Evidences".
10	By specifying that the value of the expected data type is an evidence identifier (code `EVIDENCE_IDENTIFIER` of the Code List ResponseDataType`) the Response will have to contain an evidence supplied in an element of the object `cac:Evidence`, at the end of the XML Instance. See chapter "VIII.8 Evidences".
11	The issuer party of this evidence (e.g. a base registry). Will be placed in the element `cac:Evidence/cac:DocumentReference/cac:Attachment/cac:IssuerParty`. Some countries use verification codes associated to evidences. To specify these verification codes you can use the Evidence ID, as in the end the code identifies uniquely the Evidence in the issuer system (see this XML example, look for 'Verification code' inside the example, bullet number 6).
12	National criterion defined by the MS in e-Certis (this example corresponds to Finland) related to the EU criterion on this conviction.
13	An additional specification for this national criterion, in this case related to the evidence that will be required by this Member State.
14	UUID supplied by e-Certis. See also the criteria taxonomy spread-sheet.
15	Exclusion criteria taxonomy code defined in the criteria taxonomy spread-sheet.
16	Compulsory name and description for the criterion as defined in e-Certis. See also criteria taxonomy spread-sheet. Beware that UBL-2.2 allows '0..n' description lines!
17	This property is a caption, a mere 'label'. See Code List 'CriterionElementType' for the complete list of possible options. Beware that when a property is of type `CAPTION` the `cbc:ValueDataType` must be set to `NONE`.
18	As the property is a CAPTION no response is expected from the economic operator. See Code List 'ResponseDataType' for the complete list of possible options.
19	Notice that in the ESPD Request the criterion properties never use its element `cbc:Name`.
20	EU legislation data related to this criterion. Notice that all the textual fields have multiple cardinality and may specify the language (attribute `languageID`. This can be used to express the same content in different languages. No language specified defaults to `en` (English).
21	The complete title as published in Eurlex or in a national official electronic bulletin board is expected for this field.
22	A quick reference name to refer to the legislation is expected for this field.
23	The jurisdiction level (or scope) covered by this legislation. You must use the text of the description supplied by the Code List `LegislationType`.
24	One or more articles from this legislation where the criterion is defined and referred to. Beware that the cardinality of this field is multiple.
25	Groups codified as `ON*` must be processed always (e.g. all its elements shown on a GUI or automatically parsed and saved, etc.).
26	Pay attention to this type of QUESTION(s). It is intended to act as a decision point. If answered with yes (INDICATOR value = true) some additional questions will be asked to the economic operator. Thus the value of the code of the next sub-group (set to ONTRUE).
27	This property is a QUESTION, therefore a specific type of value will be expected from the economic operator in the ESPD Response (an INDICATOR, i.e. a 'boolean' value true/false, in this case).
28	The `cbc:ValueDataType` indicates the type of value that the contracting authority requires for this QUESTION. Therefore, in its answer (inside the ESPD Request document) the economic operator will have to use also an INDICATOR value (true/false). Otherwise the mechanism used to validate the ESPD Response should consider the XML instance as invalid (should be treated as a FATAL error).
29	Data structures defined by GROW are re-usable. This is specially the case (but not uniquelly) of the structure 'Is this information available electronically?' Notice that the UUID that identifies this structure is always the same in all the criteria that include it. Similarly structures that are reused in different criteria do have the same UUID (as they are the same). Beware that the group of properties (URI, Reference/Code, Issuer) will only be shown if the answer is 'Yes', thus the sub-group code `ONTRUE`.

Note for the future: Cross-border/cross-sector codes

Some relevant trans-European initiatives like ECRIS, BRIS, EESSI, and other, have defined Code Lists and other reference data that could be used in e-Procurement, and specifically by the ESPD. This would enhance the cross-border and cross-sector semantic and technical interoperability.

Thus, in the case of Convictions, a new requirement could be introduced in G1 (see figures above) asking for the ECRIS Code corresponding to the offence that will be specified in the Response in case the Economic Operator answered ''yes'' to the first Requirement. The ECRIS Codes can be consulted in the Annex to the COUNCIL DECISION 2009/316/JHA of 6 April 2009 on the establishment of the European Criminal Records Information System (ECRIS) in application of Article 11 of Framework Decision 2009/315/JHA ^[1].

V.2 Contributions

Related information requirements

See formal requirements related to exclusion grounds criteria in the BIS 41 - European Single Procurement Document (Version 2.0.0), and more specifically tbr070-013.

Differences between Basic and Extended

In the Extended ESPD the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;
In the Extended ESPD the contracting authority can specify the minimum debt an economic operator can maintain related to unpaid taxes or social security contributions.
For both Basic and Extended, the category ''Contributions'' encompasses two criteria with identical data structures:
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.CONTRIBUTIONS.*: ''payment of taxes'' and ''social security contributions''.

V.2.1 Basic Contributions

Mock-ups - contracting authority perspective

For a better understanding of the behavior of the Basic 'Contributions' have a look to the two figures below. They show two different options offered by the ESPD Service GUI perspective for the economic operator:

The figure below represents a possible mockup for the contracting authority perspective of the Conviction criterion 'Payment of Taxes' as retrieved from e-Certis:

Basic 'Payment of Taxes' (ESPD Service, CA perspective)

Figure 5. Basic 'Conviction' Payment of Taxes (ESPD Service, EO perspective) - OPTION 1 (YES)

Mock-ups - economic operator perspective

The next mock-up shows the view of the economic operator when it answers "Yes" to the question "Has this breach of obligations been established by other means….?". See the next mock-up for the negative answer. See also the section IV.8 GUI control elements/ONTRUE/ONFALSE codes for GROUP and SUBGROUP control.

Basic 'Payment of Taxes' (ESPD Service, EO perspective)

Figure 6. Basic 'Conviction' Payment of Taxes (ESPD Service, EO perspective) - OPTION 1 (YES)

This other mock-up shows the view of the economic operator when it answers "No" to the question "Has this breach of obligations been established by other means….?".

(7)(8)(13)

1	EU Payment of Taxes (PoT) criterion according to the Directive.
2	Country or Member State concerned by the conviction. This field is only shown if the the answer to the previous QUESTION was Yes.
3	Amount concerned and currency for the amount concerned. The economic operator may change the currency. Notice that the currency is specified in the `cac:Amount` attribute `@currencyID`. To see how this looks like in an XML instance open an XM example file corresponding to an ESPDResponse and search for `currencyID`. The default currency is EUR, but the economic operator may specify it in the currency of its country.
4	Placeholder for the "[…] means used to" establish the obligation (See mock-up above). Beware that this sub-structure is only processed (e.g. showed in a GUI, preserved in the XML instance, other) if the answer to the previous QUESTION is Yes (INDICATOR value = true). Compare with the ESPD Service screen-capture above (EO perspective) when the answer is yes.
5	Placeholder for the "Please describe them" field. This sub-group of one QUESTION is only shown if the previous QUESTION was answered with a Yes, thus the ONTRUE code for the sub-group.
6	URL from where to download the evidence. Will be placed in an element of the object `cac:Evidence`. See chapter "VIII.8 Evidences".
7	By specifying that the value of the expected data type is an evidence identifier (code `EVIDENCE_IDENTIFIER` of the Code List ResponseDataType`) the Response will have to contain an evidence supplied in an element of the object `cac:Evidence`, at the end of the XML Instance. See chapter "VIII.8 Evidences".
8	The issuer party of this evidence (e.g. a base registry). Will be placed in the element `cac:Evidence/cac:DocumentReference/cac:Attachment/cac:IssuerParty`. Some countries use verification codes associated to evidences. To specify these verification codes you can use the Evidence ID, as in the end the code identifies uniquely the Evidence in the issuer system (see this XML example, look for 'Verification code' inside the example, bullet number 6).
9	Placeholder for the "Please indicate the date of conviction or decision". Beware that this sub-structure is only processed (e.g. showed in a GUI, preserved in the XML instance, other) if the answer to the previous QUESTION is Yes (INDICATOR value = true). Compare with the ESPD Service screen-capture above (EO perspective) when the answer is Yes. Notice also that this XML example contains the possible answers. This was done on purpose to show you how both branches are instantiated in the XML file. However in a real file (e.g. not in an example) it would not make sense have both XML branches, but only one: either the one corresponding to the Yes answer or the one for the No answer; which is the normal expected behaviour of a `choice` structure (this behavior is similar to the an XML `choice` structure, however UBL Naming and Design Rules (NDR) disavow the use of `choices`).
10	Placeholder for the "In case of a conviction, insofar as established…". It goes in the same sub-group than the previous QUESTION about the date of conviction.
11	Notice that the structure and elements for legislation are always the same for all exclusion criteria. Also the UUID identifying the structure is the same in all the exclusion criteria, as this is a highly reusable structure.
12	Beware that this sub-structure is only processed if the answer to the QUESTION was No (INDICATOR value = false). Compare with the mock-up. Compare with the ESPD Service screen-capture above (EO perspective) when the answer is No.

V.2.2 Extended Contributions

REQUIREMENT

The contracting authority needs to be able to specify national exclusion criteria linked to one EU criterion as well as criteria particular for the procurement procedure. The economic operator, in the ESPD Response document, will have to responde "Yes" or "No" to each national criterion thus confirming that it in breach of the Law.

See also the REQUIREMENT tbr070-015 about economic thresholds regarding unpaid taxes or social security obligations.

Mock-ups - contracting authority perspective

The screen-capture below represents a possible mock-up for a contracting authority perspective of the Extended 'Contributions' criterion (Payment of Taxes).

Figure 9. Basic 'Payment of Taxes' (ESPD Service, CA perspective)

This other screen-capture below represents a possible mock-up, from the contracting authority perspective, for the edition of requirements in a Extended 'Contributions' criterion (Payment of Taxes).

Figure 10. Extended 'Payment of Taxes', REQUIREMENT edition (CA Perspective)

The differences with the Basic Contribution are:

The criteria specified by the Member State in e-Certis will be save in the ESPD Request XML instance;
The contracting authority has specified a pair of REQUIREMENT(s) for this procedure (threshold and additional information). If the REQUIREMENT is applicable to all procurement procedure (because it is in the national Law, for example) this would be defined as a national criterion in e-Certis.

Mock-ups - economic operator perspective

This other mock-up illustrates what the economic operator sees.

Figure 11. Extended 'Payment of Taxes', (EO perspective)

Data structure - Extended

The figure for the general data structure below is not reflecting the fact that, for this particular example (about Finland), the national sub-criterion will be repeated four times (the sub-criterion structure has cardinality 0..n). Hence the circles 2 to 5 in this figure meaning that the sub-criterion structure will be repeated for the national criteria 2 to 5. Verify that in the XML example there are four cac:SubTenderingCriterion elements)

1	The MS defined this national 'Payment of Taxes' criterion in e-Certis. See also previous example for the BASIC Payment of taxes (the behavior is identical for all exclusion criteria).
2	Reference to the EU Legislation. This reusable structure is identical for all the exclusion criteria.
3	For this EXTENDED ESPD Request Payment of Taxes criterion, the Member State defined in e-Certis a national REQUIREMENT consisting in the specification of the 'threshold amount of debt that an economic operator have with the national Tax Agency' (50 Euros in this example).
4	Notice that type of property used is REQUIREMENT. This entails that: (i) the ESPDRequest is of type EXTENDED (BASIC ESPDs does not work with REQUIREMENT(s)); (ii) a `cbc:ValueDataType` will be present indicating the type of value the contracting authority uses for this REQUIREMENT (e.g. AMOUNT, INDICATOR, DESCRIPTION, etc.; see the Code List `ResponseDataType`, the values are the same for contracting authorities REQUIREMENT(s) than for economic operator response values).
5	Beware that No answer is expected here from the economic operator (do not get confused by the presence of the `cbc:ValueDataType`, as said it is used by both the CA and the EO.
6	The value supplied by the contracting authority for this requirement (50 Euros, in this example). Notice that the currency is specified in the attibute `currencyID` of the `cbc:Amount` component.
7	The MS also allows the contracting authority the possibility of adding multiple additional textual requirements (in this case the CA uses this to explain that ''Beware that the national Tax Agency won’t permit the existence of a debt, even if minimial, for two consecutive years'').
8	Again, no answer is expected here from the economic operator, as this is a REQUIREMENT issued by the contracting authority. Hence the element 'cbc:ValueDataTypeCode' contains the type of value of the requirement issued by the contracting authority.
9	Except for the national sub-criteria and the REQUIREMENT(s), the rest is identical to the Basic ESPD.

Differences between Basic and Extended

The Extended ESPD the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;
For both Basic and Extended, the category ''Social'' encompasses criteria with identical data structures, classified as:
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.SOCIAL.*: ''breaching of obligations in the fields of environmental law'', ''breaching of obligations in the fields of social law'' and ''breaching of obligations in the fields of labour law''.

Differences between Basic and Extended

In the Extended ESPD the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;
For both Basic and Extended, the category ''Business'' encompasses the following group of criteria with the same data structures and classified as:
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.BUSINESS.*: breaching of obligations for ''bankruptcy'', ''insolvency'', ''winding-up'', ''arrangement with creditors'', ''analogous situation like bankruptcy under national law'', ''assets being administered by liquidator'' and ''business activities suspended''.

The Extended ESPD the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;
For both Basic and Extended, the category ''Misconduct'' encompasses two criteria that share the same structure as the one used for the ''social'' group of criteria (see sub-section ''How to specify ''social'' related criteria, above).
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.MISCONDUCT.*: ''guilty of grave professional misconduct''; and ''agreements with other economic operators aimed at distorting competition''.

All these criteria are specified based on the same data structure:

V.6 Conflict of interest

Related information requirements

See formal requirements related to exclusion grounds criteria in the BIS 41 - European Single Procurement Document (Version 2.0.0), and more specifically tbr070-013.

Differences between Basic and Extended

The Extended ESPD the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;
For both Basic and Extended, the category ''Conflicts of Interest'' encompasses different exclusion criteria which are more heterogeneous than the ones described until now.

We have divided the conflict of interest criteria in two groups, this first group is composed of two criteria with the same structure:

CRITERION.EXCLUSION.CONFLICT_OF_INTEREST.PROCEDURE_PREPARATION: Conflict of interest due to ''direct or indirect involvement in the preparation of this procurement procedure'';
CRITERION.EXCLUSION.CONFLICT_OF_INTEREST.PROCEDURE_PARTICIPATION: Conflict of interest due to ''participation in the procurement procedure''.

The second group, named ''Early termination'', is explained in a different section. See section "Early termination).

Mock-ups - contracting authority perspective (Basic and Extended)

This mock-up could be used for both models, Basic and Extended:

'Conflict of interest' criterion mock-up - CA perspective

V.7 Early termination

Related information requirements

See formal requirements related to exclusion grounds criteria in the BIS 41 - European Single Procurement Document (Version 2.0.0), and more specifically tbr070-013.

Differences between Basic and Extended

The Extended version the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;

For both Basic and Extended, the category 'Early termination' refers to only one criterion with a specific (simple) data structure classified as:
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.CONFLICT_OF_INTEREST.EARLY_TERMINATION: Conflict of interest due to ''early termination, damages or other comparable sanctions''.

V.8 Misinterpretation

Related information requirements

See formal requirements related to exclusion grounds criteria in the BIS 41 - European Single Procurement Document (Version 2.0.0), and more specifically tbr070-013.

Differences between Basic and Extended

The Extended ESPD the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;
For both Basic and Extended, the category 'Misinterpreation', another type of 'Conflict of Interest', share the same data structure, and is classified as:
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.CONFLICT_OF_INTEREST.MISINTERPRETATION

Figure 34. 'Misinterpretation' criterion mock-up - economic operator perspective

The UBL specification allows always multiple lines of text for the component cbc:Description. This feature can be used to split long descriptions into multiple lines, specially when the description contains enumerations.

The data structure for the criterion "Guilty of misinterpretation […]" below uses the feature to divide four possible cases into different lines. Software and transformation solutions can also use it to generate an XML instance where the enumeration is split in multiple cbc:Description lines. See screen-captures below representing the data structures of this criterion for the Basic and Extended models.

V.9 Purely national criteria

Related information requirements

See formal requirements related to exclusion grounds criteria in the BIS 41 - European Single Procurement Document (Version 2.0.0), and more specifically tbr070-013.

Other requirements related specifically to purely national criteria are:

REQUIREMENT

The Member State must be able to specify in e-Certis individual national criteria, and the economic operator must be able to answer to each individual purely national exclusion grounds criterion.

REQUIREMENT

For the purely national exclusion grounds that have evidences related in e-Certis, the required evidences should be displayed. When the criterion has no related evidences, the text "No evidence required for this criterion" should be displayed. Per each national criterion the EO needs to be able to provide one or more evidences.

These two requirements were introduced by the Extended (formerly, Extended) ESPD-EDM V2.1.0. Therefore you will see that there is an essential difference between the Basic and the Extended ESPDs.

Differences between Basic and Extended

The Extended ESPD the XML instances can keep the national sub-criteria defined by the MS in e-Certis;
The data structure for the Extended ESPD is quite different from the Basic due to the new information requirements requested by the Member States. See the sub-sections below on Basic purely national and Extended purely national criteria below for details on the differences. The classification code fore this criterion is:
- CRITERION.EXCLUSION.NATIONAL.OTHER

V.9.1 Basic Purely national criteria

In the Basic ESPD, software applications may download from e-Certis all the purely national criteria specified by the Member States in e-Certis. However the economic operator has not the possibility of answering the criteria individually, it has to respond 'Yes' or 'No' to all of them.

Beware that for Basic ESPDs the XML file will not contain the national criteria specified in e-Certis.

Note about the ESPD Service

If you are using the ESPD Service developed by the European Commission you will observe the GUI shows the list of national criteria defined by the Member State in e-Certis. However you must be warned that, as the EC ESPD Service does only implement the Basic ESPD V1.0.2 the list of national criteria will not be saved into the exported XML instance.

Mock-ups - contracting authority perspective (BASIC)

The mock-up below shows how the contracting authority views the criteria purely national defined in e-Certis.

'Purely national criteria' mock-up - CA perspective

Figure 37. 'Purely national criteria' mock-up - contracting authority perspective

Mock-ups - economic operator perspective (BASIC)

The figure below shows a fragment of a list of national criteria that a software application has captured from e-Certis. The economic operator does have to confirm that it fulfills all the criteria purely national.

V.9.2 Extended Purely national criteria

The ESPD-EDM V2.1.1 Extended ESPD introduces and important feature: the MS can specify and save in the XML individual national criteria. The mock-ups, data structure and XML example below show how.

Mock-up - economic operator perspective

The figure below shows a fragment of a list of national criteria that a software application has captured from e-Certis. Per each criterion the economic operator has to specify whether it fulfills the Criterion or not and eventually provide references to online evidences.
