City Roads Utility Launches Tender for ₴6M Street Repairs in Prymorskyi

The City Roads utility company has announced a tender to select a contractor to provide services for the maintenance of the street and road network in the city's Prymorskyi district.

According to the Prozorro e-procurement system, the tender covers 176.4 kilometers of potholes that need to be repaired using the jetting method.

The procurement was planned in the format of an open tender with special features and an expected purchase price of UAH 5 million 999.6 thousand. The term of service provision is until June 30, 2025.

We are talking about sections of 291 streets.

Open bidding with special features means that almost all terms are shorter than in open bidding in accordance with the Law on Public Procurement. That is, this procurement is much faster than open tenders.

The period for submitting proposals is seven calendar days, and the period for challenging qualifications is five calendar days. Often, there is no auction during such tenders, so the participant has no competitors.

However, the year before last, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine temporarily changed the rules of bidding for the period of martial law in Ukraine and within 90 days from the date of its termination or cancellation. The government temporarily canceled electronic auctions. Since then, tenders announced in Prozorro can be held without an auction.

For example, the Tairova village council in Odesa region held a procurement to select a contractor to be paid for the construction of a water supply system on Shevchenko and Nadiya streets in the village of Sukhyi Lyman in Odesa region. The only bidder was Grado-Stroy Construction Company, a limited liability company.

The company expects to receive UAH 15 million 231.5 thousand for this construction, and the work should be completed by May 31, 2025.
