Izmail City Council Awards ₴1.41M Tender to Rodnik for Housing Repairs

The Housing and Communal Services Department of the Izmail City Council of Izmail District, Odesa Region, has conducted a tender to select a company that will be paid to restore the housing damaged by the armed aggression of the Russian Federation at 3 Serhiy Levchenko Street.

The relevant information was published in the Prozorro electronic procurement system.

The procurement was conducted in the format of open bidding with special features on March 8, and the only bidder and winner was Rodnik, a private enterprise owned by Ihor Dekhtyarev, a member of the Izmail City Council from the Servant of the People party. The company expects to pay UAH 1,410,000, and the works are to be completed by June 15, 2025.

This is not the first time Rodnik PE has won procurements where it is the only participant: the executive committee of the Izmail City Council of the Izmail district of Odesa region paid UAH 24 million 375.8 thousand to Rodnik PE from November 2022 to December 2024.

In total, there were five procurements for this project.

Open bidding with special features means that almost all terms are shorter than in open bidding under 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.
