      SELECTION AND AWARD CRITERIA

      21.Selection criteria
      The following selection criteria will be applied to candidates. In the case of applications submitted by a consortium, these selection criteria will be applied to the consortium as a whole:
      1) Economic and financial capacity of candidate (based on item 3 of the application form). In case of applicant being a public body, equivalent information should be provided.
      (a) The annual turnover (individual company or consortium overall) of the candidate must be of at least EUR 6,000,000 for each of the last four (4) years (2015, 2014, 2013, and 2012) for which accounts have been closed.
      (b) The average of cash and cash equivalent at the beginning and at the end of the year are positive for each of the last four (4) years for which accounts have been closed (2015, 2014, 2013, and 2012).

      2) Professional capacity of candidate (based on items 4 and 5 of the application form)
      (a) The number of the permanent staff of the candidate (individual company or consortium overall) currently working in fields related to this contract (as they are described in item 7 – “Contract Description” above), must be at least 10 for each of the last four (4) years (2015, 2014, 2013, and 2012).
      (b) For each of the last four years (2015, 2014, 2013, and 2012), at least 40% of the overall number of staff of the candidate (individual company or consortium overall) is permanent.
      Note to candidates: In the application form, please make sure to include the actual year for which the data is provided
      3) Technical capacity of candidate (based on items 5 and 6 of the application form)
      (a) The candidate (individual company or consortium altogether) has successfully implemented, during the last 5 years (must have been successfully completed i.e. final payment made by the client at any time during the period from January 2012 up to the deadline of submission of applications as indicated under item 23 below), at least 1 project of a minimum value of EUR 500,000 equivalent, with activities related to assisting a Project Management Unit/Project Implementation Unit in the implementation of a IFI/donor financed environmental management project, and should demonstrate that it had a participation of minimum 50% in each of the project(s) brought as reference.
      (b) The candidate (individual company or consortium altogether) has successfully implemented, during the last 5 years (must have been successfully completed i.e. final payment made by the client at any time during the period from January 2012 up to the deadline of submission of applications as indicated under item 23 below), at least 1 project of a minimum value of EUR 250,000 equivalent, with activities related to supporting development of policy reform and/or drafting legislation/regulations and/or supporting management systems with a view to improving environmental compliance and/or enforcement, and should demonstrate that it had a participation of minimum 30% in each of the project(s) brought as reference.
      (c) The candidate (individual company or consortium altogether) has successfully implemented, during the last 5 years (must have been successfully completed i.e. final payment made by the client at any time during the period from January 2012 up to the deadline of submission of applications as indicated under item 23 below), at least 1 project of a minimum value of EUR 150,000 equivalent, with activities related to improving access to financing for environmental projects (e.g. financial institutions, investment agencies, intermediary organisations, etc.), and should demonstrate that it had a participation of minimum 30% in each of the project(s) brought as reference.
      (d) The candidate (individual company or consortium altogether) has successfully implemented, during the last 5 years (must have been successfully completed i.e. final payment made by the client at any time during the period from January 2012 up to the deadline of submission of applications as indicated under item 23 below), at least 1 project of a minimum value of EUR 300,000 equivalent, with activities related to industrial pollution abatement/cleaner industrial production, and should demonstrate that it had a participation of minimum 30% in each of the project(s) brought as reference.
      Note to candidates: One project reference may match and be eligible for more than one technical criterion. Projects presented as references may have started before, but must have been successfully completed i.e. final payment made by the client at any time during the period from January 2012 up to the deadline of submission of applications as indicated under item 23 below. Its commencement date, completion date, the amount of the project reference and the candidate’s contribution must be clearly identified and proven through adequate documentary evidence (such as certificates from the beneficiary). Where the assignments referenced have been implemented by consortia comprising two or more of the members now associated as a consortium for this tender procedure, their individual percentages shall be cumulated, so that the application is assessed on the basis of the candidate consortium as a whole.
      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. 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. Note that reliance on the experience of another entity (natural or legal person) for the purposes of complying with the requirements of these selection criteria may not be considered appropriate by the Contracting Authority, regardless of the relationship the candidate has with that third party legal entity. In this regard, it is recommended that you include only those assignments for which you have been legally contracted by the Client (as individual contractor or as member of a consortium).
      If more than 8 eligible candidates meet the above selection criteria, the relative strengths and weaknesses of the applications of these candidates must be reexamined to identify the eight best applications for the tender procedure. The only factors which will be taken into consideration during this re-examination are, in order of precedence:
      1) The number of projects brought as reference which comply with the requirements of any of criteria 3 (a), 3 (b), 3 (c) and 3 (d) above;
      2) In case of competition between two or more candidates having the same number of compliant references as per additional criterion 1 above, the cumulative value of projects (part implemented by the candidate) brought as a reference which comply with the requirements of any of criteria 3 (a), 3 (b), 3 (c) and 3 (d) above.
      22.Award criteria
      Best value for money.
