Contract for ambulatory psychiatry services in Valencia (SER-26-0329-OSA)
The input text concerns a public procurement procedure in Spain for a services contract in the health sector, specifically psychiatric care for workers protected by the Spanish mutual insurance entity umivale Activa in Valencia.
It is framed under Spanish procurement law (LCSP) and social security rules, and the documents reflect the contracting authority’s point of view in Spain (references to Madrid, Valencia, Spanish legislation, Spanish mutuals).
The material includes the official tender notice, the justification report (“Memoria justificativa”), the approval of the expenditure, and standard annexes for declarations and technical offers.
Regarding what the bidder must submit and minimum qualification requirements, the documents specify various mandatory forms and proofs.
Bidders must present a “Declaración Responsable” (Annex I), where they declare, such as, valid corporate constitution, capacity to contract, absence of prohibitions per art. 71 LCSP and art. 91.2 LGSS, compliance with tax and Social Security obligations, employment and environmental rules, group-company status, disability quota or alternative measures, and existence of an equality plan where applicable.
They must also declare that they have at least three years’ experience in similar services and a turnover in the contract’s activity area, in at least one of the last three closed financial years, equal or superior to the annual average of the estimated contract value (using the formula: estimated value / maximum possible years, including prorogations).
Additional solvency requirements include, such as, providing evidence of professional indemnity insurance and academic/professional titles of the entrepreneur, managers, and staff responsible for executing the contract, and submitting a copy of the sanitary authorisation for the centre as a C1 or C2-type health centre.
Annex III requires a nominal list of minimum professional staff (names, IDs, professional registration numbers and professional colleges) assigned to the contract.
The technical offer must follow Annex II, where the bidder details training, experience, and extended coverage hours of the minimum staff.
As to the scope of the contract—what, how much, where, and when—the documents define the object as the provision of psychiatry services in an ambulatory centre for the protected population of umivale Activa and affiliated self-employed workers in Valencia.
The place of performance is Valencia, Spain (territorial code ES523), with the services delivered from a centre whose address must match the one on the sanitary authorisation and be suitable for all services listed in the Excel for the economic offer.
Show all 32 statements
Quantitatively, the justification report mentions an estimated 228 psychiatry services during the initial term, using a system of unit prices.
Financially, the base tender budget is 193,500 EUR (IVA exempt, and identical with and without taxes in the notice), and the estimated contract value, including possible prórrogas (extensions) and modifications up to 20%, is 361,200 EUR.
The initial execution period runs 36 months from 01/12/2026, with one possible extension of 24 additional months, making a maximum of five years.
The memoire explains background demand analysis, such as increases in protected population, absenteeism figures, and prior years’ invoicing, which were used to derive volume estimates and cost distributions (80–85% direct costs, 10% indirect costs including civil liability insurance, and 5–10% commercial margin).
On award criteria and weighting, the contracting authority applies a multi-criteria open procedure aimed at achieving the best quality-price ratio.
The notice states that offers are evaluated with two main criteria: an economic offer (price) with a weight of 30 points and a technical offer (other, evaluated by value judgement) with 70 points.
The memoire adds more detail, indicating that within the technical dimension, umivale Activa will consider several items, such as automatically evaluable technical aspects (general technical offer) weighted at 70, specific experience weighted at 60, and extension of opening hours weighted at 10. The technical proposal template (Annex II) structures these elements into sub-criteria like: number of training hours in areas such as forensic psychiatry or occupational mental health, years of experience in relevant clinical practice and in entities focused on functional and occupational recovery, and quantitative extensions to the minimum weekly hours and days of service coverage beyond what is required in the pliegos.
The bidder accepts that any criterion not adequately evidenced later can be scored with zero, reinforcing that documentation must support the claimed points.
With respect to risks and special conditions, the documents introduce several obligations whose breach can lead to termination and other consequences.
A key special condition is of a social nature: the contractor must accept and adhere to the umivale Activa Code of Ethics and Conduct, which is expressly defined as an “essential” condition of performance; non-compliance would result in contract resolution.
The Code of Ethics obliges the contractor, such as, to comply with all applicable legislation, guarantee workers’ rights (salary, working time, health and safety, non-discrimination, freedom of association), avoid child labour, protect the environment, ensure product and service quality and safety, and refrain from fraudulent, irregular, or illicit means.
In cases of subcontracting, the contractor must ensure that subcontractors, such as, sign and obey the same ethical annex; failure to transmit and enforce these obligations is framed as a contractual breach subject to civil rules on default and termination.
Other operational conditions include the use of electronic ordering, electronic payment, and acceptance of electronic invoicing.
While detailed penalty clauses or financial guarantees are not explicitly included in the extracted text, the reference to the general pliego for mutuas suggests standard LCSP-based conditions on penalties and modifications of up to 20% of the contract.
The offer validity period is fixed at three months, and bidders must submit offers electronically via umivale’s procurement portal, within the window from 23/10/2026 at 14:13 to 09/11/2026 at 14:00; economic offers will be opened on 17/11/2026 at 10:00 in Madrid.
No electronic auction (subasta electrónica) is used, and no EU fund co-financing is involved.
The text does not mention a compulsory site visit or a specific deadline for clarifying questions, beyond the general contact details provided for queries.
Minor differences, such as the economic data presentation, appear but are reconciled in context: the base tender amount is stated as 193,500 EUR, both as “importe” and “importe sin impuestos,” which aligns because the contract is VAT-exempt; the memoire confirms 193,500 EUR as the tender budget and 361,200 EUR as the total estimated value, including prórroga and potential 20% modifications.
The initial duration is always three years, with a single prórroga of two years, consistently used in the solvency formula and in the contract description.
In case of any discrepancy between narrative documents (such as the memoire) and the formal pliegos, standard Spanish procurement practice and the approval resolution indicate that the binding interpretation is that of the Pliego de Cláusulas Administrativas Particulares and the Pliego de Prescripciones Técnicas, which are expressly approved and referenced as governing documents for this procedure.
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 24/10/2026
