⚠The period of performance is thus from contract award until acceptance at the latest by 1 October 2027, with binding period (Bindefrist) from the end of the bid deadline (Angebotsfrist 27.11.2026, 15:00) until the end of the award period (Zuschlagsfrist, indicated as 06.11.2026 in the notice, which appears contradictory and is overridden in practice by the more detailed Verfahrensbedingungen time logic).

✓Such as in the sections on “Prüfung und Wertung der Angebote” and Wirt‑121 No. 16, award criteria are set out clearly: the contract is awarded to the “wirtschaftlichste Angebot” per §127 GWB, i.e. best price‑performance ratio.

✓In this specific procedure, the published notice states “Anmerkungen: 100 % Preis”, meaning price is the sole award criterion; where no quality criteria are used, only the offer price or lifecycle costs decide.

✓The general Verfahrensbedingungen also describe methods for price/quality scoring (linear interpolation, Richtwertmethode, KO criteria, Bewertungsmatrix), but these are generic; here the applicable statement is the project‑specific notice and Wirt‑211 that refer to price as the only criterion.

✓Offers that are formally non-compliant, late, or fail minimum/KO requirements are excluded; in case of tie scores, lots are decided by drawing lots.

✓Such as in Wirt‑215 and the Verfahrensbedingungen, there are several risks and special conditions for bidders.

✓Contractual risks include: delay penalties (Vertragsstrafe per §11 VOL/B) of 0.1 % per full day (and a weekly rate, with an overall cap of 5 % of the net remuneration) for delayed delivery beyond the latest delivery date, without prior reminder and irrespective of proven damage; additional damages beyond the penalty can be claimed.

✓Security (Sicherheitsleistung) “entfällt”, so no performance bond is required.

✓Subcontracting and “Eignungsleihe” are heavily regulated: all subcontracted parts and third-party capacities must be declared via Wirt 235; commitment of other companies via Wirt 236; joint and several liability (Gesamtschuldnerhaftung) is required for economic/financial capacity; and each subcontractor/third party must submit Wirt 124.

✓Under Wirt‑215, the main contractor must give names and contact data of subcontractors and certain suppliers before the start of performance.

✓Bietergemeinschaften must form an Arbeitsgemeinschaft if awarded, appoint a representative, and accept joint and several liability.

✓Questions must be submitted via the platform no later than 7 days before bid deadline; answers become binding elements of the tender and contract.

✓The bid is binding for the duration of the Bindefrist; Nachverhandlungen are excluded; a “Zweitbieterklausel” allows the contracting authority to approach the next-ranked bidder if the awardee later fails.

❓Site visits are mentioned in the sense that the contracting authority may inspect performance and visit contractors/subcontractors; no formal mandatory bidders’ site visit is described.

✓Data protection, secrecy (Vertraulichkeitserklärung where needed), and marking of trade secrets are also mandatory elements, and bidders bear all costs of participation and any required test setups (Teststellung, if used).

✓Such as in the introduction to the Verfahrensbedingungen, contradictions and corrections within the documents are addressed by hierarchy rules and Q&A procedures.

✓The general rule is: where special Verfahrensbedingungen deviate from general ones, the special conditions prevail.

✓Any ambiguities or perceived inconsistencies must be raised as bidder questions via the platform; the contracting authority’s written answers then become binding components of the tender documents and, if they concern contractual terms or specifications, binding parts of the contract.
