The indicator tells if the procuring entity - within the scope of technical and professional capacity requirements of the procurement call - extends the past period of the required references unduly, by derogation from the period as defined by law (5-8 years in case of works, 3-6 years in case of acquisition of goods and services).
The indicator tells from the wording of the procurement call if the procuring entity, with regard to technical and professional capacity requires references "financed by EU-funds" (which might be an unduly restriction of competition).
This redflag indicates risk if only a few of the companies that purchase the bidding documents submit bids (especially if more than half drop out) AND/OR relatively few companies submit bids, compared to prior similar tenders AND/OR fewer than the normal or expected number of potential bidders apply for prequalification.

The indicator tells if the procuring entity - as part of technical and professional capacity - prescribes the certification of references of a higher total value than 75% of the estimated value of the procurement. This redflag is built upon relevant Hungarian legal provisions.
The indicator tells if the procuring entity, within the scope of technical and professional capacity, requires a professional experience of 8 or more years for the contracted experts.
