Conflict of interest
Related information requirements
See formal requirements related to exclusion grounds in the BIS 41 - European Single Procurement Document (Version 2.0.0), and more specifically tbr070-009, tbr070-004, tbr070-013.
We have divided the conflict of interest criteria in two groups, this first group is composed of two criteria with the same structure:
-
partic-confl: Conflict of interest due to ''direct or indirect involvement in the preparation of this procurement procedure'';
-
prep-confl: 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).

| 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'. |
