Dynamic Purchasing System for Short‑Term Vehicle Rental for Fundación CEAM (Spain)
The input text concerns the establishment of a Sistema Dinámico de Adquisición (Dynamic Purchasing System, SDA) for short‑term rental of motor vehicles (CPV 34100000) for the Fundación Centro de Estudios Ambientales del Mediterráneo (CEAM).
It is a public procurement procedure in Spain, governed by Directive 2014/24/EU on public procurement, with publication both on the Spanish Plataforma de Contratación del Sector Público and in the EU’s TED (DOUE).
The point of view is clearly Spanish public sector procurement, with references to Spanish tax and social security authorities and the regional Agència Tributària Valenciana, and to EU rules only as background.
The scope of the contract is described as the establishment of a Dynamic Purchasing System for the short‑term rental of vehicles (such as rentals of duration ≤ 12 months) to cover temporary mobility needs of Fundación CEAM.
The estimated contract value is 98,000 EUR, with a “presupuesto base de licitación” of 118,580 EUR (98,000 EUR without taxes).
The execution period runs from 17/04/2026 to 10/03/2036, without options or extensions (number of prorrogas: 0).
The place of performance is Spain, specifically ES523 (Valencia/València), with three geographical lots: Lot 1 Paterna (Valencia) within 35 km of CEAM’s headquarters, Lot 2 San Vicente del Raspeig (Alicante) within 35 km, and Lot 3 “resto de España” (the rest of Spain) where bidders must have installations within each Autonomous Community where rentals are required.
On what bidders must submit and minimum qualification requirements, the text indicates a restricted procedure where candidates request participation electronically via PLACSP.
As such, bidders must submit a single envelope (“Sobre Único”) containing administrative documentation as per section 9 of the administrative clauses (CCP).
This includes, for example, the DEUC (Documento Europeo Único de Contratación) plus Annex I.A or DEUC and Annex I.B; registration or equivalent documents in the ROLECE or, alternatively, notarised and registered company deeds, power of attorney and ID of the attorney.
Minimum economic and financial capacity is proven via annual turnover: such as volume of business in the best of the last three financial years equal or greater than 50% of the estimated contract value (≥ 49,000 EUR).
Technical and professional capacity is proven via: (i) list of contracts in the last three years of similar nature totalling at least 50% of the estimated value (e.g. contracts worth ≥ 49,000 EUR with Spanish municipalities), and (ii) effective availability of suitable installations in the three geographical areas (Paterna ≤ 35 km from CEAM, Alicante ≤ 35 km from CEAM, rest of Spain with installations in each Autonomous Community needed).
Show all 28 statements
Additionally, bidders must submit certificates proving they are up to date with State and regional tax authorities (including Agència Tributària Valenciana) and with Social Security payments, plus a catalogue of possible vehicles to be supplied.
The acta shows that missing documents (such as Annex I.B or certain tax certificates) can be cured through “subsanación” via PLACSP or email, and examples of admitted bidders (ANDACAR 2000 S.A. and BAYSAN QUALITY PRO S.L.) confirm the practical application of these requirements.
On award criteria and weighting, the SDA is awarded using non‑electronic auction methods (no “subasta electrónica”).
The only evaluation criterion indicated is CO1: Price, a formula‑based criterion with subtype “criterio: 100”.
The weighting is shown as 0 in some platform fields but, from context and DOUE reference, price is the sole criterion with 100% weighting.
Conditions of adjudication specify “criterios evaluables mediante aplicación de fórmulas” and there is no reference to quality or environmental scoring; environmental considerations are stated only as special execution conditions (per CCP section 13), not as award criteria.
The SDA limits the number of operators to be invited: initially platform fields showed “Número previsto de operadores 0; Cantidad Máxima 0”, but these were later corrected by official modification entries so that “Cantidad Máxima 20; Cantidad Mínima 5” applies, meaning at least five and at most twenty homologated suppliers may be admitted to the SDA.
Regarding risks and special conditions, the text notes several procedural and contractual features.
Subcontracting is explicitly permitted.
No electronic ordering, invoicing or payment will be used (all marked “No”), which implies administrative/manual processes and potential risk of delays in payments but does not introduce special financial instruments like advance payments or payment guarantees in the provided excerpts.
The validity period of the offers (for requests to participate) is 2 months (“Plazo de Validez de la Oferta 2 Mes(es)”), and the deadline for submission of participation requests is 13/04/2026 at 23:59, while the broader SDA remains open for contract‑specific offers until 10/03/2036.
The platform text clarifies that, as is typical for an SDA, no economic offers are submitted at the initial stage: “No hay ofertas, procedimiento SDA, las ofertas se establecen durante la solicitud de los contratos específicos”, i.e. prices are provided later when CEAM calls off specific rentals.
Environmental special conditions apply “conforme apartado 13 del CCP” (consideraciones de tipo medioambiental), but no penalties, performance bonds or guarantees are detailed in the excerpts; those would be in the CCP, which is referenced but not fully reproduced here.
The procedure is private in terms of act type (“Tipo de Acto: Privado”) for opening administrative envelopes, and remedies can be filed with Fundación CEAM, with deadlines for presenting resources indicated on the platform.
Regarding contradictions or corrections within the documents, several platform field inconsistencies are explicitly corrected by later notices.
Likewise, initial fields indicated “Número previsto de operadores 0; Cantidad Máxima 0”, but correction notices state “[2] Donde se decía '0' ahora se dice '20'; [5] Eliminado donde se decía Número previsto de operadores 0”, so the applicable statement is that up to 20 operators may be admitted, with a minimum of 5. Another correction states “[3] Se añade información en 'Las ofertas deben incluir catálogos electrónicos'”, clarifying that initial offers must include electronic catalogues of vehicles.
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 21/10/2026

How often this buyer tenders this kind of work
Tactics
When contracts were awarded in this country and sector, usually only one or two bids came in. A solid bid has a real chance here. (Based on 8,168 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)
This procedure allows 3567 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 26 (median of 7,730 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.
The deadline falls on a Monday — your last full working day is the Friday before. Have evidence and guarantees together by Thursday.
Foreign bidders
In Spain · Transport equipment, 344 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 39,598 recorded awards) — mostly from Italy, Germany, France.
