Gran Eco‑Bulevard Vera‑Palomares – Public Works Tender Overview

✓The input text concerns a Spanish public works tender launched by the Diputación Provincial de Almería (Spain) for the “Gran Eco‑Bulevard Vera‑Palomares,” potentially co‑financed by the European Union through the FEDER programme under the Spanish 2021‑2027 pluriregional framework.

✓It is presented from the point of view of a Spanish local authority applying EU public procurement rules (notably Directive 2014/24/EU) and using the standard EU ESPD/DEUC form for exclusion and selection criteria.

✓The country explicitly mentioned is Spain, but the documentation also refers to EU‑level legal instruments and databases available to authorities of EU Member States.

✓As background, the procedure is an open tender (“procedimiento abierto”) for a works contract (“Contrato de Obras”, subtype “Construcción”), not subject to EU harmonised thresholds (“Contrato sujeto a regulación armonizada: No”) and not covered by the WTO GPA.

✓The contracting authority is the Junta de Gobierno de la Diputación Provincial de Almería, and the process is managed electronically via the Spanish Plataforma de Contratación del Sector Público (PLACSP).

✓The documentation set includes the announcement, the DEUC/ESPD request, the Pliego de Prescripciones Técnicas, the Pliego de Cláusulas Administrativas and a Memoria Justificativa.

✓Regarding what the bidder must submit and minimum qualification requirements, the text shows that bidders must: (i) submit their offer electronically through PLACSP; (ii) provide “SOBRE A” (administrative documentation), including the completed Documento Europeo Único de Contratación (DEUC/ESPD) covering exclusion grounds (criminal convictions, tax/social security compliance, insolvency, professional misconduct, environmental/social/labour obligations), suitability (registration in the mercantile register), economic/financial standing (annual turnover and professional indemnity insurance), and technical/professional capacity (titles of staff, environmental management measures, etc.); (iii) demonstrate the required Spanish business classifications G6‑4 (Obras viales sin cualificación específica, >840,000 € and ≤2,400,000 €) and I1‑4 (Alumbrados, iluminaciones y balizamientos luminosos, >840,000 €).

✓As such, bidders must be able to present certificates for tax and social security compliance, proof of mercantile registration, turnover figures for the required years, insurance limits, and, where relevant, references for services or works of the specified type, all either attached or accessible via free national/EU databases.

✓If they rely on other entities’ capacity or sub‑contractors, they must submit separate ESPD forms for each such entity as indicated in Part II.C and II.D of the DEUC.

✓On the scope of the contract (what, how much, where, when), the documents specify: the object is the construction of the “Gran Eco‑Bulevard Vera‑Palomares” in the Levante Almeriense area (Almería, ES611), under the integrated territorial strategy Plan EDIL 9PAI‑LEVANTE30.

✓The estimated value is 3,636,363.64 EUR, with a tender budget of 4,400,000 EUR (3,636,363.64 EUR before tax).

✓The CPV code is 45111291 (Trabajos de ordenación del terreno), indicating earthworks/land arrangement as core, likely including roadworks and lighting as implied by the required G6 and I1 classifications.
