Podil City Council Announces Tender for Road Repairs Worth 3M UAH

The Department of Housing, Architecture and Land Relations of the Podil City Council of Podil District, Odesa Region, has announced a tender to select a company to pay for the current repair of the road.

This is reported in the Prozorro electronic procurement system.

The procurement is scheduled for February 17 in the format of open bidding with the expected procurement value of UAH 3 million 224 thousand. The deadline for delivery of goods, performance of works or provision of services is October 31.

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, 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.

For example, the Tairova village council in Odesa region held a procurement to select a contractor to be paid for the construction of a water supply system on Shevchenko and Nadiya streets in the village of Sukhyi Lyman in Odesa region. The only bidder was Grado-Stroy Construction Company, a limited liability company.

The company expects to receive UAH 15 million 231.5 thousand for this construction, and the work should be completed by May 31, 2025.
