Norwegian EHF ESPD version 1.0 

Background

The new procurement regulation has introduced the European Self-declaration Form (ESPD) provision for procurement of the EEA thresholds. The self-declaration form shall serve as preliminary documentation that the supplier meets the eligibility criteria and any selection criteria and that there are no grounds for rejection.

It is compulsory for public contractors to fill out the form electronically. Suppliers must complete and submit the form electronically if the client has facilitated electronic submission.

An update of the Norwegian regulations, expected to enter force first quarter of 2018, will make it mandatory  for the electronic ESPD to be in accordance with the standardised Norwegian format (EHF). The format will be named EHF ESPD v1.0.  EHF ESPD is based on the commissions data model version 1.0.2: https://github.com/ESPD.
