Selection criteria for subcontractors #73

Closed ColinMaudry closed 4 years ago

ColinMaudry commented 4 years ago

In F17 III.2, the procuring entity can provide criteria for both the suppliers and the subcontractors.

Form: https://simap.ted.europa.eu/documents/10184/49059/sf_017_en.pdf

For the suppliers, the selection criteria extension is enough. However it's not possible to specify that certain criteria apply to subcontractors.

I see two possible solutions:

@jpmckinney, what do you think?

I think a boolean is better. I'm assuming the main contractor has already identified their subcontractors when submitting their bid, so they can assess both themselves and their subcontractors against the criteria.

For reference, here are ESPD criteria (nothing specific to this issue, though) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tppQhi9hoczKt5jKDDmbmsDm_IRpjg2SxpYEeLlpu_w/edit#gid=840371336

Discussed on call to have an appliesTo field that is an array of strings (e.g. with values 'supplier', 'subcontractor'). I'm okay with this being a closed codelist, as I can't imagine what other values are possible.
