Grounds for exclusion and eligibility criteria 

Grounds for exclusion 
NATO-member state
This project is a NATO project and is funded entirely from the NATO budget. Companies not based in a NATO member state may not act as a tenderer, 
subcontractor or manufacturer. This also means that no equipment and/or product, 
not even parts or identifiable components, may be manufactured or assembled by 
companies not based in the member states and/or not located within the territory of 
the member states. This requirement applies to all parts of the works.

EU-Russian package of sanctions
The European Union has imposed various sanctions against Russia. In 2022, 
additional sanctions were introduced which restrict public procurement by Dutch 
contracting authorities where Russian companies are involved. For example, in some 
cases, contracting authorities are prohibited from doing business with certain 
companies from Russia or with Russian connections, and are obliged to exclude such 
parties from public tenders. This is laid down in a sanctions regulation, which The 
Central Government Real Estate Agency is required to comply with.
