Financial 
    Capacity:Minimum Turnover and associations of Consultants

    
 

    
    
In case several 
    consulting companies cooperate for the task, will their turnover be 
    aggregated to calculate their relevant turnover base to fulfil the minimum 
    turnover requirement?

    
 

    
    
This depends on their 
    type of participation and liability in the association.

    
Only the turnover of 
    those companies, which participate as fully liable member in a consortium, 
    can contribute to the calculation of the turnover base.

    
Sub-contractors, which 
    are contracted by a consortium or one of its members, are not directly 
    liable to the employer. Accordingly their turnover is not taken into the 
    calculation of the valid turnover of the consortium.
