Odesa Hospital Selected a Contractor for Basement Overhaul Without an Auction

The Capital Construction Department of the Odesa City Council has conducted a procurement to select a contractor for major repairs and equipment in the basement of the building of the outpatient department of City Hospital No. 8.

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

The procurement was conducted in the format of open bidding with special features, and the only participant was the Royal Art Decor Trading House Limited Liability Company. The company agreed to work for UAH 12 million 951.7 thousand.

According to the YouControl service, RD RAD LLC was registered in 2016 and is owned by Olena Pasternak.

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.

It is worth noting that after the Russian 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 non-profit enterprise City Clinical Hospital No. 10 of the Odesa City Council re-conducted a procurement to select a contractor to be paid for the refurbishment of the ground floor.

The procurement is for the current repair of certain rooms on the first floor for the accommodation and use of people with limited mobility, in particular for the physical isolation of people with aggressive behavior and mental disorders.

The procurement, like last time, was conducted in the format of an open tender with special features, and the only participant for the second time was Delaya Stroy Group Limited Liability Company. The company expects to receive UAH 1 million 81.3 thousand for the work if the agreement is concluded, and the work is planned to be completed by December 31 this year.
