Financial Offer Form and Prfile for Lot 3
Question
In the scope of Lot 3 "Application development and maintenance services", could you please explain the role of Production engineer, production manager, Service desk manager, Helpdesk Manager, Helpdesk Analyst, Network Engineer, the international expert and Database administrator? As these profiles are unlikely to be used in the scope of Lot 3 (or not to a significant extend) and that their weight is similar to the other profiles, some providers may therefore sacrifice their prices leading to biaise the fair competition by manipulating the Financial award formula. In consequence, could you confirm that those profiles needed to be quoted for Lot 3?

The tenderer has no basis for an assertion that any profiles will be used more or less than any other profiles in the context of ad-hoc studies. These specific roles will be determined by the ad-hoc study at hand, if and when they are requested by ESMA. Tenderers MUST propose ALL profiles requested in the financial offer form for all lots (the weighting shall remain unchanged), otherwise the tenderer's bids will be excluded.
