Elevator in one of the buildings damaged by Russians in Serhiivka to be repaired for 2 million

The Serhiyivka village council in Odesa region has held a tender to select a company to pay for the purchase, installation, and launch of an elevator in building No. 1 on Chornomorskaya Street, which was damaged by a Russian attack on July 1, 2022.

This is stated in the Prozorro electronic procurement system, according to the Center for Public Investigations.

The purchase, dismantling, installation, commissioning, and commissioning of the passenger elevator was estimated at UAH 2 million 250 thousand. The procurement was conducted in the format of open bidding with special features, and there was only one participant.

It was Karat-Liftkomplekt Limited Liability Company. According to the YouControl service, the company was registered in Vyshhorod, Kyiv region, in 2002. The owners are local residents Serhiy Horyshnyi and Valerii Vorobei.

Open bidding with special features means that almost all terms are shorter than in open bidding under the Law on Public Procurement. This means that 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, after the start of the full-scale invasion, 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. Thus, the government temporarily canceled electronic auctions. Since then, tenders announced in Prozorro can be held without an auction.

Earlier, the Infrastructure Restoration and Development Service in Odesa region announced that it was looking for a contractor to carry out additional repairs to a nine-story building in Serhiivka damaged by Russians.

As a result of a nighttime missile strike by Tu-22 strategic aircraft from the Black Sea in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi district of Odesa region, the Russian military hit an apartment building and two recreation centers with three X-22 missiles.
