Topic of discussion: Values of the subcontract parts

OP commented that in the lasts working group meetings there were some discussions about the value of every subcontract part of the TenderLot and how to represent the total value subcontracted. In one of the discussions, the decision was to add the total value subcontracted as an attribute of the Statistical Information class. However, in the other discussion, the decision was to remove the attribute from the StatisticalInformation and to add a new definition in the property “hasEstimatedValue” which links subcontract and value. OP, indicates that this second solution does not solve the problem because then with that definition is not possible to know the estimated value of a single subcontract.

The WG agreed on the OP statement and the decision was to add the attribute “TotalValueSubcontracted” in the StatisticalInformation class. Now, the statistical information subcontract value is the aggregation of the different values subcontracted. Moreover, the WG indicates that a business is needed to verify that the total value subcontracted is exactly the sum of the different subcontracted parts. As a matter of fact, all the data in the statistical information needs to be verified against the particular data held by the model.

Topic of discussion: Mappings TED forms - Standard Form 17 (Defence), section III.2 Conditions for participation

OP asked the business people, whether this is Exclusion, Selection criteria, both or what and whether this should go to the ESPD or in the Procurement Documents. The WG decided to use the “ProcurementCriterion” to instantiate these type of criteria, instead of using the Exclusion or Selection criteria classes. In this way, it is possible to map the current Forms to the Ontology.
