PROCEDURE
Selection & Adjudication Criteria
With a view to improving the distribution of its
purchases among its Member States, CERN applies
for the award of the contract to a technically and
financially qualified bidder the criteria set out in the
document entitled
Selection and Adjudication Criteria
for Supply Contracts
Country of Origin
is the country where the supplies (including
their components and sub-assemblies) are
manufactured or undergo the last major
transformation by the contractor.
T
he countries of origin of all supplies and services shall be CERN Member
States, the Candidate State for Accession and the Associate Member States
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus*, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India*, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, Norway,
Pakistan*, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia*, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Turkey*, Ukraine* and United Kingdom.
* Associate Member State
Return Coefficient
Bids originating from several
Member States or submitted
by a combination of firms
In the case of a
supply contract, a bid is considered to
come from a PB MS if at least 60% of the total amount of
the bid originates from a PB MS
If this is not the case, the bid shall be treated as that of a
firm offering goods from a WB MS

Selection & Adjudication Criteria With a view to improving the distribution of its purchases among its Member States, CERN applies for the award of the contract to a technically and financially qualified bidder the criteria set out in the document entitled Selection and Adjudication Criteria for Supply Contracts
Country of Origin is the country where the supplies (including their components and sub-assemblies) are manufactured or undergo transformation by the contractor. the last major The countries of origin of all supplies and services shall be CERN Member States, the Candidate State for Accession and the Associate Member States Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus*, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India*, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Pakistan*, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia*, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey*, Ukraine* and United Kingdom. * Associate Member State

Bids originating from several Member States or submitted by a combination of firms In the case of a supply contract, a bid is considered to come from a PB MS if at least 60% of the total amount of the bid originates from a PB MS If this is not the case, the bid shall be treated as that of a firm offering goods from a WB MS
Realignment rule (Scenario 1) Lowest bid from a PB MS contract placed with it Bid (CHF) Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS Contract
Realignment rule (Scenario 2) Lowest bid from a WB MS realignment rule applies if bid difference <20% Bid (CHF) <20% Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS
Realignment rule (Scenario 2) Lowest bid from a WB MS (a) 1st bidder from PB MS aligns contract placed Bid (CHF) <20% Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS Contract
Realignment rule (Scenario 2) Lowest bid from a WB MS (b) if not, 2nd lowest bidder from PB MS aligns contract placed Bid (CHF) <20% Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS Contract
Realignment rule (Scenario 2) Lowest bid from a WB MS (c) if no alignment, contract placed with lowest bidder from WB MS Bid (CHF) <20% Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS Contract
Realignment rule, in case of splitting (Scenario 3) Lowest bid from a PB MS, another bid from a PB MS falls within the 20% of the lowest bidder from PB MS aligns contracts placed with the 2 lowest bids from PB MS Bid (CHF) <20% Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS Contracts
Realignment rule, in case of splitting (Scenario 4) Lowest bid from a WB MS and 2 bids from PB MS fall within the 20% of the lowest Both bidders from PB MS align contracts placed with bids from PB MS Bid (CHF) <20% Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS Contracts
Realignment rule, in case of splitting (Scenario 5) Lowest bid from a WB MS and a bid from PB MS fall within the 20% of the lowest Lowest bidder from PB MS align contracts placed with the lowest bid and the bid from PB MS Bid (CHF) <20% Poorly balanced MS Well balanced MS Contracts
