Red Barracks West WA8 - Building Automation

✓Such as: the Aufforderung zur Angebotsabgabe and attached plans/schematics (BACnet guideline, Regelschemata, Datenpunktlisten, Baustelleneinrichtungspläne) set out the technical content, while the ZVB and LV define quantities via positions.

✓The execution periods are phased by building: Haus C (10.03.2027–25.07.2028), Haus A/B (30.06.2027–29.08.2028), Haus D (22.09.2027–03.10.2028); another summary shows a global Ausführungszeit 10.03.2027–03.10.2028.

✓The contractor must prepare a detailed Ablauf- und Terminplan within two weeks of contract signing, keep it updated monthly (including Soll-Ist comparison), and adhere to contractually binding Fristen.

✓The place of performance is the specified Potsdam site; temporary site installations (Baustelleneinrichtung Phase 1/2) are given and must be coordinated with the Bauleitung.

✓Award criteria and weighting are relatively simple and price-focused.

✓Such as: the Auftraggeber states that the Zuschlagskriterium is “Preis”, with the price derived from the Wertungssumme of the offer, calculated from checked offer sums including unconditional discounts, effects from the Lohngleitklausel, and any Instandhaltungsangebote.

✓There is an option to use “Mehrere Zuschlagskriterien gemäß Formblatt Zuschlagskriterien” including the “Berücksichtigung von Werkstätten für behinderte Menschen und von Inklusionsbetrieben”, but in the provided excerpt the decisive criterion named is price.

✓Nebenangebote may be either excluded or permitted depending on what is ticked in the Aufforderung; where allowed, they must meet qualitative and quantitative equality and any set Mindestanforderungen, be fully described and structured by quantities and unit prices.

✓Offers must be in German, use the specified forms, be submitted electronically (via Vergabemarktplatz Brandenburg) or in sealed paper form by the deadline, and improperly signed or non-fristgerechte offers are excluded.

✓The risks and special conditions for bidders are extensive in the ZVB and related annexes.

✓Such as: strict compliance with the Brandenburg Vergabegesetz minimum wage regime is required; violations (Entgeltverkürzung, refusal of controls) trigger contractual penalties of 1% of the Auftragssumme per case (capped overall at 5%, max. €250,000).

✓There are detailed obligations on site conduct (cleanliness, waste management under Form 241 Abfall, environmental and nature protection, weekly site meetings, daily Bautagesberichte, reporting of hindrances and endangered species), and on using only qualified personnel and suitable subcontractors.

✓Security requirements include an Erfüllungsbürgschaft of 10% of the gross contract sum for contracts > €50,000, non-on-first-demand, and a separate Mängelansprüchesicherheit (Mängelhaftungsbürgschaft) of 5% of the gross, objectively correct Schlussrechnungssumme after acceptance for guarantees over the longer VOB/B defect periods (generally 5 or 10 years, with a Bürgschaft claim period extended to 7 years if legal limitation would be shorter).

✓There is a complex regime on Nachträge and § 650c BGB, requiring provision of Urkalkulation and allowing the client to provide payment or security instead of paying contested variation sums.

✓The client has a BauRisk project insurance in place (combined construction and liability, with Excedenten cover and Feuer-Rohbau), the premium (max 0.64% plus insurance tax on the final gross contract sum) is borne by the contractor via deduction from the final payment.

✓Further risks and conditions concern subcontracting, penalties, validity periods, questions, and ancillary obligations.

✓Such as: subcontracting requires prior written disclosure of type and scope of subcontracted services and details (name, address, Berufsgenossenschaft and membership number) and, for tasks the contractor’s business is set up to perform, explicit consent under § 4 Abs. 8 VOB/B.

✓The contractor must ensure that subcontractors do not re-subcontract without the client’s written consent, must impose equally stringent pay and control obligations, and may not impose less favourable conditions on them than those it has agreed with the client.

✓The Bindefrist for offers runs to 17.12.2026, and bidder questions should preferably be submitted via the Vergabemarktplatz by 10.11.2026; late questions may remain unanswered.

✓Non-compliance with competition rules (e.g. collusive arrangements) may lead to exclusion and triggers a pauschaler Schadensersatz of 15% of the gross accounting sum, unless the bidder proves lesser damage.

✓There is an obligation to provide and update a Freistellungsbescheinigung § 48b EStG; failing that, the client may withhold 15% from each payment and the contractor must at least name its tax office and tax number.

❓There is no explicit mandatory site visit mentioned in these excerpts, but the use of site plans and the duty to clarify any perceived errors in the tender documents before bidding suggests an expectation of due diligence.

✓Such as: the long-form Leistungsverzeichnis of the client is expressly declared “alleinverbindlich” even if the bidder used a self-made short LV; the Angebotsschreiben confirms this and confirms that any changes to the tender documents received become part of the offer.

✓Where “oder gleichwertig” is used for products and the bidder does not enter a product, the client’s specified product is deemed agreed.

✓The ZVB clarify that agreed prices are Festpreise despite later cost changes, except where Lohngleitklausel or Vergabegesetz-based adjustments apply; clauses on § 650c BGB emphasise that VOB/B does not exclude § 650c Abs. 3 BGB.
