The Chornomorskvodokanal utility company from Odesa region has selected a contractor to be paid for the reconstruction of the main sewage pumping station in Chornomorsk.
The relevant information is available in the Prozorro electronic procurement system, according to the Center for Public Investigations.
The procurement was conducted in the format of an open tender with a single participant - the private enterprise Yuzhspetstrade. The company plans to receive UAH 12 million 721.6 thousand if the agreement is concluded.
According to the YouControl service, the private enterprise Yuzhspetstrade was registered in 2011. The owner is Mykola Fedorovych from Mykolaiv.
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.
This is not the first time that Yuzhspetstrade has won a procurement without an auction. In July, the Capital Construction Department of the Yuzhne City Council of Odesa District, Odesa Region, selected a contractor for the construction of a columbarium at the local cemetery for the second time. The procurement was conducted in the format of an open tender with special features, and the "winner" - the private enterprise Yuzhspetstrade - had no competitors.
