Rural hospital in Odesa region selected a supplier of medical equipment without an auction

The municipal non-profit enterprise Velykomykhailivska Multidisciplinary Hospital in Odesa Oblast has conducted a tender to select a company to pay for an automatic hemostasis analyzer.

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

The auction was held on January 25 in the format of an open tender with special conditions. The only participant in the auction was Labvita Limited Liability Company. The company expects to receive UAH 1 million 418.6 thousand. According to the YouControl service, the company was registered in Kyiv in 2012. The owner is Olena Latushko from Kyiv.

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 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 municipal non-profit enterprise City Clinical Hospital No. 10 of the Odesa City Council held a procurement to select a supplier of a laser lithotripsy system.

The procurement was conducted in the format of an open tender with peculiarities and the only participant was an individual entrepreneur , Oleksandr Leshchenko. He is to provide the hospital with the system for UAH 5 million 590.6 thousand by December 31, 2025.
