Public tender for the acquisition of three forklifts for ADIF (Spain)
The input text concerns a Spanish public procurement procedure under Ley 9/2017 for ADIF (Spain’s rail infrastructure manager), specifically a supply contract to acquire three forklifts (“carretillas elevadoras”) for territorial warehouses in Linares and Sevilla.
The point of view is clearly Spanish (organismo de derecho público bajo control estatal), framed within EU public procurement rules (ACP mention, exclusion grounds typical of EU law).
Documents are announcement of tender, pliegos publication notice, internal “Solicitud de Inicio de Contratación” and “Resolución de aprobación de expediente”.
Such as for the scope of the contract, the text specifies that the object is the “Adquisición de tres carretillas elevadoras para los almacenes territoriales de Linares y Sevilla en el ámbito de la Subdirección de Operaciones de R.C. Sur”.
The quantity is three forklifts; the geographical scope covers the territorial warehouses of Linares (Jaén) and Sevilla, with tramification codes 044000060–070 (Jaén) and 044440020–030 (Sevilla).
The value is a base (sin impuestos) of 125.840,00 EUR and a total with IVA of 152.266,40 EUR.
The execution period is 3 months, with no options or prórrogas (Número máximo de prórrogas: 0).
The place of execution is coded ES61 (Spain) and the contract nature is “suministros” with internal budget split between 2026 and 2027 investments.
Such as regarding what the bidder must submit and minimum qualification requirements, the text mainly points to the pliegos (“Pliego Prescripciones Técnicas”, “Pliego Cláusulas Administrativas”) as containing detailed solvency requirements: “Criterio de Solvencia Técnica-Profesional: Otros - Según lo indicado en el Pliego de condiciones particulares” and “Criterio de Solvencia Económica-Financiera: Otros - Según lo indicado en el Pliego de condiciones particulares”.
The overview lists standard EU/Spanish exclusion grounds (fraud, corruption, terrorismo, blanqueo de capitales, organización criminal, trabajo infantil/trata, quiebra, insolvencia, bienes administrados por liquidador, acuerdo con acreedores, incumplimientos laboral, social y ambiental, falta profesional grave, acuerdos para falsear la competencia, conflicto de intereses, participación en la preparación del procedimiento, suspensión de actividades comerciales, impago tasas/SS).
Thus bidders must at least submit the usual administrative documentation (DEUC/ESP, declarations or certificates) proving non-exclusion and compliance with social, labour, environmental and tax/security social obligations; any specific turnover, references, insurance or certificates will be defined in the pliegos, which are referenced but not reproduced in the input.
Such as for award criteria and weighting, the procedure is “Abierto simplificado” and explicitly “Un solo criterio (Precio)”.
Show all 25 statements
The section “Condiciones de adjudicación – Criterios de Adjudicación – Criterios evaluables mediante aplicación de fórmulas” states “Precio : Subtipo Criterio : 100 Ponderación”.
That means the contract will be awarded solely to the lowest compliant price offer (100% price weighting; no qualitative criteria).
There is no subasta electrónica.
Opening of economic offers is scheduled for 10/11/2026 at 10:00 in an acto privado in Madrid; offers must be submitted electronically via https://elicitadores.adif.es by 06/11/2026 at 10:00.
Such as for risks and special conditions, the text specifies payment terms as “Pagos Certificaciones LCSP (a 30 días)” and “Pagos a 30 días desde F. Aprobación”; electronic ordering and invoicing and payment will be used (“Se utilizará pedido electrónico: Sí; Se aceptará factura electrónica: Sí; Se utilizará el pago electrónico: Sí”).
Special execution conditions include environmental, social and data protection considerations (“Consideraciones de tipo medioambiental”, “Consideraciones tipo social”, “Sometimiento del contratista a la normativa de protección de datos”), which the contractor must respect.
It is not a copago contract (CONTRATO CON COPAGO: NO) and there is no price revision (REVISIÓN DE PRECIOS: NO).
Penalties, guarantees, subcontracting rules, validity of offers and any site visit or question deadline are not detailed in the excerpt and are said to be defined in the pliegos particulares; no explicit site visit or Q&A calendar appears in the provided text.
Risk for bidders lies mainly in broad exclusion grounds and strict compliance with social/labour/environmental rules and data protection, plus standard LCSP penalty/guarantee regime presumably embedded in the administrative clauses.
Such as for contradictions or corrections within the documents, the core commercial data are consistent across all references: same object, CPV, value 125.840 EUR (sin IVA), total 152.266,40 EUR, execution period 3 months, provinces Jaén and Sevilla, procedure abierto simplificado, single criterion price (100% weighting), no prórrogas and no subasta electrónica.
The apparent differences concern only the listing of exclusion grounds: one block of text shows a wider list (including quiebra, blanqueo de capitales, corrupción, conflicto de intereses, trabajo infantil, etc.), while another block highlights a subset (e.g. quiebra, blanqueo, corrupción, conflicto de intereses), and another repeats them with minor ordering/duplication.
Given they all reference “Motivos de exclusión” and are typical legal grounds under Ley 9/2017 and EU directives, they should be read cumulatively, not as mutually contradictory; the applicable statement is that all listed national and EU exclusion grounds apply as per LCSP and the pliegos.
Any precise hierarchy or correction would have to be checked directly in the Pliego de Cláusulas Administrativas, which is cited as the authoritative source.
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 24/10/2026
