When the date of delivery is indicated, applicants are requested to indicate the date on which the delivery begins and ends.

Where the application is based on the professional qualifications of other entities or on professional experience relating to the performance of specific parts of the services covered by the contract, the specific parts of the services covered by the contract shall be provided by the entity on which the applicant is based.

Contracting entities will select three candidates invited to tender for the contract. Where more than three applicants meet the minimum eligibility requirements set out above, three applicants will be selected on the basis of the objective and non-discriminatory criteria set out below. The restriction of candidates invited to submit a tender will be based on an assessment of the candidates who have demonstrated the most relevant deliveries in the contract. References specified in the ESDP will form the basis for the selection. The following is given positive importance in the selection: • that the references document deliveries in the field of operation, maintenance and development of an IT solution to a state, municipal or other public institution as a customer. • The fact that the references document experience in operating an IT solution that is business-critical, for example, expressed by the fact that the critical nature of the solution has necessitated periods of increased preparedness or that the solution leads to critical operating periods with enhanced service targets. • That the references document experience with a complex IT solution, where "complex" means a wide variety of system applications and settings across the solution users (for the concept of user in the solution, see Section 2.4 of Annex 2A (Situation description - business)). • That the references document experience in the development of a SAP application using standardised tools and methods, based on the SAP products described in Annex 2B (Situation description - the IT environment), in particular the SAP BPC, SAP BW and SAP HANA products. • That the references document experience with an IT solution that supports economic or budgetary processes.
