The municipal enterprise Housing and Communal Service Pivdennyi has held a tender to select the contractor to pay for the overhaul of the basement at 147/1 Knyazya Volodymyr Velykoho (Dobrovolskoho) Avenue.

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

The procurement was conducted in the format of an open tender with special conditions, and the only participant was individual entrepreneur Yuriy Khronovskyi. The entrepreneur expects to receive UAH 7 million 710.2 thousand from the deal if it is concluded. The work is to be completed by December 31, 2025.

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 non-profit enterprise City Clinical Hospital No. 10 of the Odesa City Council conducted a procurement to select a supplier of medical equipment.

The procurement was conducted in the format of an open tender with peculiarities, and the only bidders were individual entrepreneurs Svitlana Baburova and Alla Kovalchuk. The former was the only bidder for lot No. 1, which includes the purchase of equipment for operating rooms and a laser lithotripsy system. She is expected to receive UAH 5 million 206.5 thousand.
