The Black Sea port decided to repair the railway track for 4 million

The Black Sea branch of the state enterprise Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority has announced a tender to select a contractor to pay for the maintenance of the rear railway track No. 8.

This is reported in the Prozorro electronic procurement system.

The auction is scheduled for November 18 in the format of open bidding with special features. The expected purchase price is UAH 4 million 383.9 thousand. On a 175-meter-long section of railway track No. 8, it is necessary to re-lay and replace the grid from P50 rails with new P65 rails on reinforced concrete sleepers Sh-1. The term of service provision is 90 calendar days.

Open bidding with peculiarities 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.

It should be noted that after the beginning of the Russian 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 State Enterprise "Local Road Service" held a procurement to select a contractor to pay UAH 86 million 155.7 thousand for the operational maintenance of public roads of local importance in Odesa district and chose Yug Stroy Company LLC.
