Lot 2 – Levering van een 55" Smart‑TV voor VZW Sint‑Goedele Brussel
The input text concerns a Belgian public procurement (“openbare procedure”) launched by vzw Sint‑Goedele Brussel (Anderlecht, Belgium) for “Lot 2 – Smart‑TV” within an investment round of 16 October 2026.
The country context and rules are clearly Belgian, with references such as the Wet Overheidsopdrachten, the federal e‑procurement platform, and the FOD BOSA, so the point of view is that of a Belgian contracting authority applying Belgian/EU public procurement rules.
The document provides background on the procedure and general administrative framework, such as the requirement that all offers must be submitted electronically via the Belgian e‑procurement platform (https://www.publicprocurement.be) by 2 December 2026, and that submission on paper or by e‑mail is not allowed.
It also refers to practical support for bidders, such as the e‑procurement helpdesk and online instructional videos for enterprises, and clarifies that by submitting an offer, tenderers unconditionally accept the specifications and all accompanying documents.
Concerning what the bidder must submit and minimum qualification requirements, the text explains that each lot must be bundled separately, with as first page the sheet with technical specifications, and that the offer must contain an offer number, offer date, full description, and total price, drawn up on company letterhead.
The bidder must, for example, use the “opsomming van de loten” page to indicate for which lots it tenders, complete the “inschrijvingsformulier” (including the total price in euro including VAT), tick per line whether the offered product meets each requested technical specification and whether timely delivery (and where applicable installation) will be achieved, initial each page and sign the last page.
The bidder must also indicate the brand and model of the proposed TV and, if useful, add technical specifications to prove compliance; conformity certificates and CE‑marking are required but are described as items that must be delivered with the goods rather than specifically with the offer.
No explicit minimum qualification criteria (such as turnover thresholds, references, insurance levels or certificates of good standing) are described in the provided excerpt.
The scope of the contract is narrowly defined: it concerns the supply (delivery only; installation is “niet van toepassing”) of one 55" Smart‑TV for a care room (“zorglokaal”) to the delivery address VBS Sint‑Michiels, Leopold I‑straat 362, 1090 Jette.
The TV must, for example, have a 55" screen, 4K resolution (3840 x 2160), support wireless casting from Windows laptops and MacBooks, include Smart‑TV functionality with pre‑installed apps such as Netflix, YouTube and Amazon, have total audio output of 20 W, and provide at least 2x HDMI, 1x USB‑2.0, 1x LAN Ethernet and Wi‑Fi, plus a remote control; design is explicitly stated as not important.
All manuals and associated software must be in Dutch, all equipment and accessories must be CE‑marked, and a conformity certificate must be supplied.

The material must be deliverable and (for those lots where it applies) installed by 15 January 2027; the institutions are closed from 21 December 2026 to 3 January 2027.
A minimum warranty of 2 years is required, and invoicing must be done via Peppol, using the provided GLN number.
Regarding award criteria and weighting, the text provided does not specify any explicit award criteria or their relative weightings (such as “lowest price” or “economically most advantageous tender” with sub‑criteria).
No points system, qualitative criteria (service, delivery time, quality), nor price/quality weighting are mentioned in the excerpt, so any assumptions about how the contract will be awarded would be speculative based on this text alone.
In terms of risks and special conditions, the document sets some procedural and timing constraints but does not mention penalties, liquidated damages, performance guarantees, subcontracting rules, or the validity period of offers.
It does describe, for example, that questions about the specifications can only be asked between Monday 9 and Friday 20 November 2026 via the forum on the BOSA e‑procurement platform.
If a bidder finds objections, errors or gaps in the documents that could prevent correct price calculation or comparison of offers, they must report this immediately and in writing to the contracting authority no later than ten days before the offer deadline (i.e. ten days before 2 December 2026).
No mandatory site visit is mentioned.
The main “risk” for bidders is that any product not meeting every minimum technical specification will automatically lead to rejection of the offer for that lot.
With respect to contradictions or corrections, there is one notable internal inconsistency: the lot title repeatedly refers to a “55” Full HD Smart‑TV”, while the technical specifications clearly demand “HD‑type 4K 3840 x 2160”, which corresponds to Ultra HD rather than Full HD.
In case of doubt, such as this difference between descriptive title and detailed specification, procurement practice typically gives precedence to the explicit technical specifications section, but the document itself does not state a formal hierarchy of clauses; bidders are nonetheless instructed to report any such errors or ambiguities in writing within the set deadline.
Another small tension is that the general conditions speak of the material being “leverbaar en geïnstalleerd” by 15 January 2027, whereas for this specific lot installation is “niet van toepassing”; this can reasonably be read as a generic clause for all lots, with “delivery only” applying here.
No explicit corrigendum text or formal corrections are included in the provided extract.
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 27/10/2026
