Odesa Hospital Selects Prantex for ₴4.99M X-ray System in Fast-Track Tender

The municipal non-profit enterprise City Clinical Hospital No. 11 of the Odesa City Council has conducted a procurement to select a company to be paid for an X-ray diagnostic mobile system.

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

The procurement was held on March 1 in the format of an open tender with the special features and competitors in the limited liability company Prantex. The company will have to provide the hospital with two sets of X-ray systems for UAH 4 million 996 thousand.

According to the YouControl service, Prantex LLC was registered in Vinnytsia in 2019. The owner is Viktor Slyusarenko.

Open bidding with peculiarities implies 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 full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation, 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, City Clinical Hospital #11 of Odesa City Council held a procurement to select a company that would sell it a common ultrasound imaging system. Medholding Limited Liability Company had no competitors.
