The Department of Municipal Economy of the Odesa City Council has announced two tenders to select a company that will be paid for the overhaul of elevators in the city's high-rise buildings.
The announcements were published in the Prozorro electronic procurement system, according to the Center for Public Investigations.
Two elevators are planned to be overhauled in building 10-a on Heavenly Hundred Avenue. The selected contractor will receive UAH 3 million 810.4 thousand for this work. The second tender involves the repair of three elevators at 146/2 Lustdorfska Road, for which it is planned to pay UAH 3 million 833.5 thousand.
Both auctions are scheduled for September 16, and the winners will have to complete the work by December 31, 2025. The procurement is planned in the format of open tenders with special conditions.
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 beginning of the full-scale aggression of the Russian Federation in 2022, 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, in August, the Department of Municipal Economy of the Odesa City Council held a procurement to select a company to overhaul the elevators of a residential building at 159 Lustdorfska Road. It was about two elevators in this building. The only participant in the tender was Steel Made Limited Liability Company.
The company expects to receive UAH 2,660,000 for the overhaul of these elevators, and the work should be completed by December 31, 2024. However, the auction was later canceled due to the inability to eliminate the identified violations in public procurement.
