activities foreseen in the financing agreement;

different Mercosur countries and between the Mercosur countries and the
European Union;
3. provide assistance in devising methodologies and strategies for SPS
controls which can be shared by the 4 Mercosur countries;
4. work towards producing a network effect between the institutions
currently involved in SPS control issues, and encouraging, in particular,
the regional effect whereby work protocols and procedures can be shared by
counterpart institutions in the different countries.
8. Number and titles of the lots: 1 lot only.
9. Maximum budget: EUR 1 100 000.
10. Any additional services: No.
Conditions for participation
11. Eligibility criteria: Participation is open to all legal entities,
individually or grouped together in a tenderers' association (consortium),
established in the EU Member States or the countries and territories of
the regions which fall within the scope of application of the specific
instruments applicable to the programme under which the contract is
financed, or which are authorised by said legal instruments (see point
30). International organisations may also take part. Participation of
natural persons is governed by the specific programme funding the
contract.
12. Application: Natural persons or legal entities who are eligible (see
point 11) or groupings of said parties (consortia) may take part in the
invitation to tender.
A consortium can be a permanent grouping with a legal status or an
informal grouping created for a particular invitation to tender. All the
members of a consortium (i.e. lead tenderer and all other members) are to
be jointly and severally liable vis-à-vis the contracting authority.
Should a natural person or legal entity take part who does not meet the
eligibility criteria (see point 11), this will result in the party
concerned being automatically disqualified. Furthermore, should said party
belong to a consortium then the whole consortium will be disqualified.
13. Number of applications: Natural persons and legal entities are only
able to submit 1 application, irrespective of the form their participation
may take (as a single legal entity, or as lead tenderer or member of a
candidate consortium). Should a natural person or legal entity submit more
than 1 application, all the applications involving said party will be
rejected.
14. Prohibition on alliances between shortlisted candidates: Tenders
which include companies not mentioned on the application forms used to
compile the shortlist will be disqualified from this restricted procedure.
Shortlisted candidates may not form alliances or subcontract to each other
for the contract.
15. Grounds for exclusion: Candidates must enclose with their application
form a signed statement confirming that they are not in any of the
situations listed in section 2.3.3 of the Practical Guide to EC external
aid contract procedures (available from the Europe Aid web address
http://ec.europa.eu/europeaid/work/procedures/implementation/
common_documents/prac tical_guide/new_prag_fmal_es.pdf). This statement
forms part of the application form.
16. Subcontracting: Up to 20 % of the total contract value may be
subcontracted.
17. Number of shortlisted candidates: Between 4 and 8 candidates will be
invited to submit detailed tenders for this contract, depending on the
applications received. If the number of eligible candidates meeting the
selection criteria is less than the minimum of 4, the contracting
authority may invite these candidates to submit a tender.
Provisional timetable
18. Provisional date for the invitation to tender: November 2007.
19. Provisional date for commencing the contract: March 2008.
20. Initial contract length, and possible extension: 21 months, with the
possibility of an extension in accordance with provisions in the financing
agreement, for an amount not exceeding EUR 400 000.
Selection and award criteria
21. Selection criteria: The following selection criteria will be applied
to candidates. Where applications are submitted by a consortium, then the
criteria will apply to the consortium as a whole.
(1) Candidates' economic and financial capacity (based on section 3 of the
application form):
the candidate's or, should a consortium be involved, the grouping's annual
turnover for the past 2 years must exceed the maximum budget allowed for
the contract.
(2) Candidates' professional capacities (based on sections 4 and 5 of the
application form):
at least 10 members or 20 % of the permanent professional staff employed
by the candidate or, should a consortium be involved, by the grouping are
currently working in fields connected with the contract.
(3) Candidates' technical capacities (based on sections 5 and 6 of the
application form):
the candidate, or at least 1 member of the grouping should a consortium be
involved, has worked satisfactorily on at least 1 technical assistance
contract in Latin America in the past 5 years, in the fields of regional
integration and/or economic cooperation and/or fields relating to the
harmonisation of SPS standards and procedures.
Economic operators may, if necessary and for a specific contract, make use
of the resources and capacities of other bodies irrespective of their
legal relationship. In such a case, they must provide the contracting
authority with proof that they will have the resources needed to carry out
the contract by, for example, producing a written commitment by said
bodies to make such resources available. Consortia may likewise make use,
on the same terms and conditions, of the capacities of other members of
their consortium or other bodies.
If more than 8 applications prove to be eligible, i.e. meet all the
selection criteria, then the merits of the applications from these
candidates will need to be re-examined so as to determine which 8
applications for the invitation to tender are the most suitable. Only the
following factor will be taken into account in this re-examination:
(1) the candidate, or at least 1 member of the grouping should a
consortium be involved, has worked satisfactorily on at least 1 technical
assistance contract in the Mercosur region over the past 5 years.
