Qualification Systems

Supplier qualification is a process by which we establish a list of qualified suppliers to supply a particular category of goods or services. In order to achieve this, a number of objective and transparent criteria are applied, of a quantitative and qualitative nature, be their technical, environmental, economic and financial, or of any other specific kind. 

Only the classification of "Qualified" allows the integration of products into the Public Service Electrical Network.

    2. All other documents must be submitted in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the Qualification Programme, namely Clause 11.
     

  2. (i) Applicants seeking qualification under Qualification Programme 01/SQF/2021 may, for the purpose of meeting the minimum requirements regarding the number of qualified electricians for the PTS + LV Works + Metering asset class/group, present the number of technicians indicated in Annex 1 holding qualification certificates corresponding to a TET-BT-Networks course with a duration of less than 119 hours, provided that the companies demonstrate or declare that these technicians have at least two (2) years of experience in the role and have not interrupted their TET-BT-Networks activities for a period exceeding six (6) months.

    (ii) With regard to the specific chainsaw operator training requirement, technicians holding training of less than sixteen (16) hours will be accepted, provided that the applicant companies demonstrate or declare that these technicians have at least one (1) year of experience in the role.

  3. No. It is not necessary to repeat this information in the other tabs. It is sufficient to identify the TET Manager in the “Specific Information - Networks” tab.

  4. It refers to the date of the TET HV, TET MV and TET LVW training, as applicable.

  5. This information may be entered in the “Chainsaw Operator Training” column, by renaming the column to “Chainsaw Operator Training / MV Cabinet Works”.

  6. The Contracting Authority provides the ESPD with the sections applicable to it already completed, namely:

    a) Part I (Information concerning the procurement procedure and the contracting authority).
    b) Part III (Grounds for exclusion), including any additional exclusion grounds applicable in Portugal, where relevant.
    c) Part IV (Selection criteria), where applicable.

    The economic operator must then complete the remaining sections of the ESPD that relate to its own information, namely:

    a) Part II (Information concerning the economic operator).
    b) Part III (Grounds for exclusion).
    c) Part IV (Selection criteria), where applicable.
    d) Part V (Reduction of the number of qualified candidates), where applicable.
    e) Part VI (Concluding statements).

  7. The main form corresponds to the application page available on the platform and must be completed at the time of submission. There is no separate document available for download or printing.

    Once all the required information has been entered into the platform, applicants must submit the form, after which the information will be recorded in the system.

  8. This Qualification System does not provide for the establishment of objective and non-discriminatory criteria or rules aimed at limiting the number of candidates to be invited to tender. Therefore, all qualified entities will be invited to participate in the relevant procurement procedures. As such, Part V of the ESPD is not applicable in this context.

  9. All documents submitted as part of the Qualification Request must be drafted in Portuguese, which shall also be the language used in all procurement procedures carried out under this Qualification System.

    Where documents are, by their nature or origin, issued in a foreign language, the applicant must provide a duly certified translation into Portuguese together with the original document.

  10. This declaration, along with any other required declarations, must be submitted through the supplier’s registration area within the Supplier Registration System (SRF), available at Supplier Registration System (SRF).

    The information provided in the SRF will then be transferred to the qualification application during its preparation and submission process.

  11. The submission of a Motor Vehicle Third-Party Liability Insurance policy is not mandatory.

  12. The submission of the list of completed works is not mandatory.

  13. For the purposes of qualification under 01/SQF/2021, the BTN Energy Metering – Connections training course, with a duration of 9 days and including 10 hours of TET training, is not considered adequate.

    Only technicians holding full TET/BT training (119 hours) will be considered.

  14. As stated in point (e) of Section 2.1 of Annex I of the Qualification Programme, applicants must ensure that all personnel whose roles require specific certification (including TET, HV Cabinet Works, MV Cabinet Works, Metering Teams, Optical Fibre Splicers, Chainsaw Operators, Working at Height, and others) are able to provide the relevant certificates issued by accredited training providers.

    Accordingly, applicants must provide evidence that Optical Fibre Splicers have completed specific Optical Fibre Splicing training delivered by a recognised training provider.

EC REDES FAQ II

  1. An applicant may only obtain qualification in one Qualification Category and must expressly select that category when submitting the qualification request. Failure to do so will result in the exclusion of the application.

    The assessment of each qualification request is carried out independently for each Qualification Category. Therefore, the outcome of the assessment applies solely to the category for which the applicant submitted its application.

    Accordingly, if an application for the Networks 1 Qualification Category is deemed “Not Qualified”, the applicant may submit a new application for the Networks 2 Qualification Category, should it wish to do so. Under no circumstances will E-REDES consider an application submitted for Networks 1 as eligible for assessment under Networks 2.

    Notwithstanding the above, applicants that obtain qualification under the Networks 1 Qualification Category will automatically be considered qualified under the Networks 2 Qualification Category.

  2. The qualification system documents can be accessed through the following path:

    E-REDES website; Customers and Partners; Suppliers; Qualification Systems; Documentation / Qualification Systems; Consult

    You may also access the platform directly via the following link: https://edpartners.miisy.eu/sqf/do/public/links/eredes

    Once on the platform, search for 01/SQF/2021 to view the relevant qualification system documentation.

  3. If you are already registered in the system with an “Elementary” or “Basic” registration level, you must send an email to qualificacao.fornecedores@e-redes.pt requesting an upgrade to the “Advanced” registration level in order to be able to submit a qualification application.

  4. Yes. Applicants must be registered in the Supplier Registration System (SRF), available at Supplier Registration System.

    Registration in the SRF is free of charge for all entities wishing to register.

  5. Yes. There is also Qualification System 05/SQF/2014, which applies to individual Work Classes (CO), allowing applicants to select the specific Work Class for which they wish to obtain qualification.

    In addition, Qualification System 13/SQF/2013 applies to work carried out in Substations, covering both electrical installation and civil construction activities.

  6. For qualification under Qualification Programme No. 01/SQF/2021, within the Networks 2 Qualification Category, applicants must comply with the requirements set out in Annex I of the Qualification Programme, specifically those applicable to the Networks 2 Qualification Category and, in particular, to the HV/MV Asset Class / Work Group.

    The minimum human resource requirements are: 20 HV/MV electricians; and Optical Fibre Splicer; as defined in the above-mentioned Annex.

    In addition, applicants must also comply with the requirements established for the remaining asset classes/work groups set out in that Annex.

  7. For the purposes of calculating the number of technicians to be considered for qualification, Sections 2.2.1 (Networks 1 Category) and 2.2.2 (Networks 2 Category) of Annex I to the Qualification Programme specify the required quantities by Asset Class / Work Group, as well as the training certificates that must be provided for the indicated personnel. At this stage, no distinction is made by individual Work Class.

    Example:

    Networks 1 Qualification Category
    Asset Class / Work Group: PTS + LV + Metering

    2 (two) Engineers

    85 (eighty-five) Electricians

    1 (one) technician holding an “MV Cabinets” certificate

    In addition, all operatives must hold a TET LV certification, meaning that all 85 (eighty-five) electricians must be certified in TET LV.

  8. For the purpose of submitting a qualification application, consortiums or joint ventures are not required to be registered as a separate entity in the Supplier Registration System (SRF).

    However, the registration requirement remains mandatory for each individual entity that forms part of the consortium or joint venture.

  9. There is no restriction on the separate participation of economic operators belonging to the same corporate group within this Qualification System, whether participating individually or as part of a consortium.

    Accordingly, economic operators belonging to the same corporate group may, at any time, submit a qualification application either individually or as members of a consortium, provided that they meet all the qualification requirements set out in the relevant Qualification Programme.

  10. With regard to the two Qualification Categories, the following should be noted:

    Regardless of the Qualification Category selected (Networks 1 or Networks 2), applicants, whether acting individually or as part of a consortium, must obtain qualification across all asset class groups specified in the Qualification Programme.

    The types of works and services to be carried out under future contracts are, as a general rule, similar in both Qualification Categories.

    Applicants that obtain qualification under the Networks 1 Qualification Category will automatically be considered qualified under the Networks 2 Qualification Category. Conversely, applicants qualified under the Networks 2 Qualification Category will be qualified only for that category.

    The main differences between the two categories relate to the specific qualification requirements that applicants must meet, as set out throughout the Qualification Programme, particularly in Section 9. The qualification requirements for Networks 1 are substantially more demanding than those applicable to Networks 2.

    For information purposes, Section 1.6 of the Qualification Programme sets out certain rules and conditions applicable to future procurement procedures depending on the Qualification Category. In particular, it highlights the possibility of creating different groups of lots according to the Qualification Categories (Networks 1 and Networks 2). It is anticipated that the annual value of each contract awarded under the Networks 2 Qualification Category will be less than €7,000,000 (seven million euros).
