More than 6 million was decided to be paid for the maintenance of fire systems in schools in Khadzhibey district

The Center for Financing and Economic Activities of Educational Institutions of Khadzhybeyskyi District of Odesa has announced a procurement to find a company that will be paid to maintain the fire alarm system in schools and kindergartens.

This is reported in the Prozorro electronic procurement system.

The winning company will have to maintain evacuation control systems, centralized fire surveillance systems, and automatic fire extinguishing systems in 60 schools and kindergartens by December 31, 2025.

The procurement is scheduled to take place on January 16 in the format of an open tender with special conditions and an expected procurement value of UAH 6.2 million.

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.

For example, the municipal institution Odesa Regional Special Medical Supply Base chose Fabryka Smaku LLC to provide four meals a day for patients without an auction. The procurement was conducted in the format of an open tender with special features, and after the agreement is concluded, the winning company will have to feed patients until December 31, 205.
