Public tender for supply of medals and protocol items for Salamanca Local Police
The input text concerns a Spanish public procurement procedure launched by the Ayuntamiento de Salamanca (Spain) for the supply of medals, badges, insignias and protocol items for the local police.
The point of view and applicable law are clearly Spanish (LCSP and municipal documentation), and the procedure is published on the Spanish Plataforma de Contratación del Sector Público.
The scope of the contract is the supply of various honorific or protocol elements for the Policía Local de Salamanca, such as medals, badges, insignias, bars, miniatures, plaques, metopes, cases, diplomas and similar items.
The price must include all related services, such as manufacturing, customisation, engraving, finishing, packaging, transport and delivery.
The estimated contract value is 21,050.73 EUR, with a tender budget of 10,229.46 EUR (8,454.09 EUR without VAT), and execution is in Salamanca (ES415).
The duration is described in two ways: in the initiation document as 2 years from formalisation with possible annual extensions up to a maximum of 2 further years, and in the announcement as an execution period of 4 years, which corresponds to the total potential duration including extensions.
Regarding what bidders must submit and minimum requirements, the procedure is an open simplified procedure under article 159.1 LCSP and requires electronic submission via PLACSP by 04/11/2026 at 23:59.
Bidders must submit two envelopes (electronic folders): Sobre nº 1 with administrative documentation and documents related to criteria subject to value judgment, and Sobre nº 2 with the economic offer and other formula‑evaluated criteria.
All tenderers must be registered (or have requested registration before the offer deadline) in the ROLECE (Registro Oficial de Licitadores y Empresas Clasificadas del Sector Público) and declare that their registered data have not changed.
The solvency is structured as a commitment: bidders must undertake to provide proof of economic‑financial solvency (as per clause 8.B of Annex I of the PCAP) and technical‑professional solvency (as per clause 8.C of Annex I) only if they are awarded, so the concrete figures (such as turnover, insurance or reference contracts) are to be found in the PCAP referenced but not reproduced in the extracted text.
As for award criteria and weighting, the tender is to be adjudicated under an open simplified procedure with several award criteria (art. 145.3.f and 159.1 LCSP).
The criteria are divided into those evaluated by formulas and those evaluated by judgment.
Show all 20 statements
The detailed content of each criterion (such as specific price scoring formulas or quality sub‑criteria) is not in the excerpt but is said to be defined in the Pliego de Cláusulas Administrativas Particulares and its Annex I.
With regard to risks and special conditions, the contract allows subcontracting and requires acceptance of electronic invoicing; however, electronic ordering and electronic payment will not be used.
The validity period of the offer is 4 years, which is unusually long but matches the maximum contract duration.
Causes of contract termination refer to articles 211 and 306 LCSP and to obligations considered essential in section 23 of Annex I of the PCAP, with effects per articles 213 and 307 LCSP (which implies risks such as penalties or termination if essential obligations are breached).
There is no electronic auction, no EU funding, and no specific strategic, green or social procurement obligations beyond generic references as “Otros”; no mandatory site visit or explicit question deadline is mentioned in the excerpt.
Concerning contradictions or corrections, there are two relevant discrepancies.
First, the value estimado del contrato appears as 21,050.73 EUR in the tender summary, whereas the initiation decree mentions an estimated value of 18,599.02 EUR; in practice, the value in the later and formal tender documents (the “anuncio de licitación” and PCAP) normally prevails over the earlier initiation agreement, so 21,050.73 EUR should be considered the applicable figure.
Second, the duration is described as “Plazo de Ejecución 4 Año(s)” in the announcement, while the initiation document states “duración de dos años desde su formalización con posible prórroga anual hasta un máximo de dos años más”; these statements are consistent if one reads the 4 years as the maximum potential duration including extensions, so the operative rule is: initial 2‑year term, plus up to 2 one‑year extensions, maximum 4 years total.
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 22/10/2026
