Circulation restricted  to the Contracting Authority and the author of the document to protect the individual  and privacy and commercial and industrial secrecy < TA name of operation > Reference code:  < TA Reference > One copy, signed in original,  of this Service tender submission form, as well as Declarations from the Leader  and all members (in case of a consortium) must be supplied. The attachments to this submission form ( i.e. declarations, statements) may be in original or copy. If copies are submitted, then the originals must be  dispatched to the Contracting Authority upon request.  All data included in this submission form must  concern only the legal entity or entities making the application.  For economical and ecological reasons, we strongly recommend that you submit your files on paper-based  materials (no plastic folder or divider). We also suggest you use double-sided print-outs as much as possible.  Any additional documentation (brochure, letter, etc) sent with the submission form will not be taken into  consideration, unless specifically requested to be submitted (see Instructions to tenderers). Applications being  submitted by a  consortium  (i.e., either a permanent, legally-established grouping or a grouping which has  been constituted informally for a specific tender procedure) must follow the instructions applicable to the  consortium leader and its members.  With regard to criteria relating to economic and financial standing and to criteria relating to technical and  professional ability, an economic operator could, 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. If the tenderer relies on the capacities of other entities, 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 a commitment (refer to of the letter of undertaking template) 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 - notably that of nationality – and must fulfil the same relevant selection  criteria as the economic operator. The contracting authority shall verify whether there are grounds for exclusion  for these entities. In this sense, the respective entity shall provide the Declarations referred to at point 7 of this  Application form. The contracting authority shall require that the economic operator replace an entity, which  does not meet a relevant selection criterion, or in respect of which there are compulsory grounds for exclusion.  The contracting authority may require that the economic operator substitute an entity in respect of which there  are non-compulsory grounds for exclusion. With regard to technical and professional criteria, an economic  operator may only rely on the capacities of other entities where the latter will perform the services for which  these capacities are required. With regard to economic and financial criteria, the entities upon whose capacity  the tenderer relies become jointly liable for the execution of the contract.  In case the respective tenderer is awarded the contract, the Contracting Authority reserves the right to ask the  entity providing the undertaking for documentary evidence regarding the exclusion criteria.
