Vergabeverfahren PV-Anlage Hochschule Karlsruhe – Überblick der Ausschreibungsbedingungen
The input text concerns a public construction tender in Germany for the installation of a photovoltaic (PV) system in connection with facade and roof refurbishment at the Hochschule Karlsruhe Technik und Wirtschaft (Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences).
It is based on German procurement law (VOB/A, VOB/B) and uses federal standard forms (VHB Bund).
The point of view is clearly German: the client is the Land Baden-Württemberg, legal references are German (e.g.
GWB, VgV, LDSG, KrWG), and EU references relate to EU-wide procurement rules and sanctions (e.g.
Verordnung (EU) 2022/576 on Russia).
No other countries are mentioned as contracting authorities or legal origins.
The text first sets the background of the tender procedure.
It is an open procedure under VOB/A EU, run by Vermögen und Bau Baden-Württemberg, Amt Karlsruhe, for the measure “H.NB.51901.1537 – Moltkestraße 12, 76133 Karlsruhe, Mensa, Instandsetzung Fassaden und Dach, Leistung PV Anlage”.
As such, the documentation defines that communication and bid submission are to be made electronically via the Land Baden-Württemberg procurement platform (vergabe.landbw.de), and that the procedure strictly follows German public procurement rules.
It also specifies that the written long version of the Leistungsverzeichnis (bill of quantities) is binding, even if data are exchanged electronically via GAEB/DA XML.
Regarding what the bidder must submit and the minimum qualification requirements, the input text lists, such as in Formblatt 216, a detailed “Verzeichnis der im Vergabeverfahren vorzulegenden Unterlagen”.
With the offer, bidders must submit: the Angebotsschreiben (Formblatt 213), the priced Leistungsverzeichnis, price breakdown forms 221/222, the Eigenerklärung zur Eignung (Formblatt 124) or PQ-Number/EEE, the Eigenerklärung_RUS_Sanktion (Russia sanctions), any Bietergemeinschaftserklärung (234) and Verzeichnis der Leistungen/Kapazitäten anderer Unternehmen (235) if applicable, and possibly 224 (Lohngleitklausel), 233 (Nachunternehmerleistungen) and 248 (Holzprodukte) depending on the offer.
Show all 28 statements
Minimum qualification is shown by turnover for comparable works in the last three years, execution of comparable services in the last five years, and availability of sufficient staff.
On request (if the offer comes into the “engere Wahl”), bidders must submit references (at least three with detailed project data), proof of registration (Gewerbeanmeldung, Handelsregister, Handwerksrolle/IHK), and tax/social clearance certificates, such as Unbedenklichkeitsbescheinigungen of Finanzamt, Sozialkasse, Berufsgenossenschaft, a Freistellungsbescheinigung § 48b EStG, and any confirmed Insolvenzplan if declared.
As to the scope of the contract – what, how much, where, when – the documents specify, such as in the Aufforderung zur Angebotsabgabe (211 EU) and Besondere Vertragsbedingungen (214), that the performance location is Moltkestraße 12, 76133 Karlsruhe (Mensa of the Hochschule Karlsruhe) and that the specific lot covers the “Leistung PV Anlage” in the context of facade and roof refurbishment.
The time schedule is fixed as contractually binding: start of work on 01.03.2027 and completion (abnahmereif) by 30.04.2027, with these dates expressly marked as Vertragsfristen under § 5 VOB/B.
Water and energy costs are borne by the client and therefore must not be priced in the unit rates; electronic invoicing under XRechnung via the central invoice entry of Baden-Württemberg is mandatory for invoices above EUR 1,000.
The main criterion is the price: “Zuschlagskriterium Preis” and the “Wertungssumme” is calculated from the recalculated offer sum including discounts, amounts from Lohngleitklausel and any maintenance offers.
Additionally, several award criteria are mentioned with weighting in a separate annex to 211 EU (not fully quoted here), but the text emphasizes that the bonus mechanism for workshops for disabled persons applies: their offers receive a 15% bonus on the evaluation sum, and if such an offer is equally economical as another, the award goes to the workshop’s offer, provided proof of status is submitted with the offer.
Concerning risks and special conditions, the documents define various obligations and potential sanctions.
Contractual penalties (Vertragsstrafen) under § 11 VOB/B apply for delay against the contractually fixed start and completion dates, calculated per working day of delay and capped in total at 5% of the net contract sum.
Special conditions include: strict rules on Nebenangebote (alternative bids) which must meet minimum requirements, be fully described and broken down by quantities and unit prices, otherwise they are excluded; requirements for using other companies’ capacities (Unteraufträge/Eignungsleihe) including mandatory Verpflichtungserklärung (Formblatt 236) and joint liability; compliance with waste management rules (241) making the contractor Abfallerzeuger and responsible for lawful disposal and documentation; and obligations related to data processing, cyber security incident reporting to SITiF BW, and use of the PlanTeam-Server (PTS) for project communication.
Subcontracting entails extra security and information duties, including possible Formblatt 126 for Nachunternehmer and adherence to LTMG-related declarations about Stammpersonal.
On questions of validity period, deadlines, and potential contradictions, the input text states, such as in 211 EU and the “Hinweis – ausschließlich elektronische Angebotsübermittlung”, that the offer submission deadline is 23.11.2026, 24:00, via the electronic platform only; paper or email submissions are invalid and must be excluded.
The bid’s binding period (Bindefrist) ends on 29.01.2027.
Unclear or contradictory provisions in the tender documents must be reported promptly to the contracting authority before bid submission in text form (per 212 EU §1).
At document level, when there are discrepancies between data exchange files (GAEB/DA XML) and the written version, the written version prevails (244 Datenverarbeitung).
No explicit contradictions between documents are highlighted in the text excerpts; instead, the documents themselves define which statements are authoritative (e.g. main LV long version, written forms, special conditions in 214 and its Beiblatt).
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 25/10/2026
