SELECTION AND AWARD CRITERIA

21.Selection criteria
The following section will be applied to candidates. In case of applications submitted by a consortium, these selection criteria will be applied to the consortium as a whole:
1) Economic and financial standing of candidate(s):
(i) For each of the last three years, total annual turnover of candidate(s)/applicants must exceed the budget of the contract.
2) Professional capacity of candidate(s):
(i) At least 10 % of all members of staff working for the candidates work in fields related to this contract.
(ii) At least 20% of all staff working for the candidate this year in fields related to the contract are permanent.
3) Technical capacity of candidate(s):
(i) The candidate should have a demonstrated track record in the fields of industrial pollution abatement, procurement, financing, marketing and training; the candidate has at least one major assignment of at least 5 years in the field of international project management and institutional development, preferably in developing countries, related to the fields above.
(ii) Proven experience in setting up and running such an operation in a transition country, preferably in the Mediterranean region.
(iii) Proven capacities to provide backstopping and to recruit and manage technical assistance teams.
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. 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. Under the same conditions, a consortium of economic operators may rely on the capacities of members of the consortium or of other entities.
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 eight best applications for the tender procedure. The only factors which will be taken into consideration during this re-examination are:
- the number and size of operations in the relevant areas described under point 21(3).
22.Award criteria
