The Department of Education, Culture, Youth and Sports of the Starokozatske Village Council of Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi District, Odesa Region, has conducted a tender to select a company that will provide catering services to schoolchildren.
This is reported in the Prozorro electronic procurement system.
The food supplier will organize hot meals (outsourcing) for students in grades 1-4 and privileged categories until December 31. The only bidder and, accordingly, the winner of the tender was individual entrepreneur Natalia Khlivna. She expects to receive UAH 2 million 612.6 thousand.
Outsourcing is the transfer by a company of some of its tasks or processes to third-party contractors on a subcontract basis. This is an agreement under which work is performed by people from an external company, who are usually also experts in this type of work. Outsourcing is often used to cut costs.
The procurement was conducted in the format of an open tender with special conditions. Open bidding with special conditions 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, the year before last, 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. The government temporarily canceled electronic auctions. Since then, tenders announced in Prozorro can be held without an auction.
We are talking about seven schools:
These schools will have to feed 380 pupils in grades 1-4 and 48 pupils in the privileged category.
