5T Telescopic Forklift

✓The bidder must list any economic operators whose capacities it relies on, and any subcontractors plus their roles and shares of the contract.

✓Alongside the offer, the bidder must submit: a completed European Single Procurement Document (EBVPD) (5th annex), documents proving the conformity of the offered goods to the technical and quality requirements in Annex 1 (such as manufacturer catalogues, technical descriptions, brochures, declarations), a joint venture agreement if submitting as a group of suppliers, and a power of attorney if the person signing the offer is not the legal representative.

✓Each technical requirement in the “Siūlomų prekių techniniai parametrai” table must be explicitly confirmed as met (TAIP/NE) and backed by manufacturer documentation; where a specific material or product name is mentioned, “arba lygiavertis” must be written and equivalence proved by reliable means.

✓The proposal also has a section for indicating which parts of the offer are confidential; prices, subcontractors and other legally public information cannot be treated as confidential.

❓The text refers to “kvalifikacijos reikalavimai” fields in the form (to link subcontracted activities to qualification requirements), but detailed turnover, insurance or reference thresholds are not visible in the excerpt.

✓The award criteria and weighting are explained in Annex 7 “Kokybės kriterijai ir jų vertinimas”.

✓The economically most advantageous tender (EMAT) is chosen on the basis of price and four quality criteria: (K) price, (SN) hydraulic pump capacity in l/min, (V) engine type, (RL) service engineer reaction time in hours, and (G) guarantee duration in months/hours.

❓Price is converted to points by a formula, such as K = Kmin / Kp * 70 or 75 (depending on the version), where Kmin is the lowest non‑rejected bid price and Kp is the evaluated bid price; the factor (70 or 75) indicates the maximum number of points that price can contribute.

❓Hydraulic pump capacity ≥140 l/min is mandatory and scored: 0 points at 140; 2 points if >140 and <160; 5 points if ≥160 and <170; 10 points if ≥170.

✓Guarantee length is scored: 0 points at 24 months and/or 2000 hours; 2 points if >24/<36 months or >2000/<3000 hours; 5 points if ≥36 months or ≥3000 hours.

✓The overall economic advantage is calculated as E = K + SN + V + RL + G, and bidders must state their proposed values for each criterion in the proposal form.

✓Risks and special conditions appear mainly through the contract annexes and the price revision methodology.

✓The “Įkainių perskaičiavimo metodika” (Annex 2 to the contract) allows either party to request unit price revision after at least 12 months from contract start (or last revision), if the Eurostat index changes by at least 10%.

✓There are two versions: one using producer price index for “Mašinų ir įrangos gamyba (C28)” and one using consumer goods and services price index; in both, the new rate a₁ is calculated by a₁ = a + (k/100)×a, where k is the percentage change between the latest index and the index at the start of the period.

✓Index values are taken to four decimal places; k is rounded to one decimal and a₁ to two decimals.

❓Price changes cannot cover periods already revised, and if the calculated k exceeds 50% from the original unit price, the revision is capped at ±50%.

✓When prices are revised, the initial contract value is correspondingly adjusted.

✓Other risk‑related conditions include: strict technical parameters that limit eligible models (e.g. operating weight ≤11,000 kg, turning radius ≤4.5 m); obligations for the supplier to carry out all preventive maintenance at its own expense during the guarantee period; a 30‑day maximum repair time with an obligation to provide a replacement machine beyond that; and requirements that any equivalence claims for “arba lygiavertis” goods be proven.

❓Subcontracting is allowed but must be declared with the activity and share; the text implies standard Lithuanian rules on exclusion grounds, but does not show explicit penalties, guarantees or insurance clauses in the provided excerpt.

❓The proposal validity period is stated to be “until the term set in the procurement documents” but the exact date is not visible, and there is no mention of mandatory site visits; questions from suppliers are handled via CVP IS, with formal replies (e.g. letters of 2026‑09‑22 and 2026‑09‑25) but the exact deadline for questions is not shown.

✓As to contradictions or corrections within the documents, several points emerge.

⚠Since the 2026‑10‑01 version is explicitly marked as a new revision, that later version applies unless the contracting authority states otherwise.

⚠Second, there are two versions of the “Įkainių perskaičiavimo metodika”: one tied to producer prices for machinery (C28) and one tied to consumer prices; each version is labelled either plain or “2026‑10‑01 redakcija”, so the redrafted 2026‑10‑01 text prevails for the current procedure.

✓Third, the technical specification requires operating weight ≤11,000 kg, and a supplier asked to allow either “transport weight” or increase the limit to 12,000 kg; the authority answered that the requirement remains unchanged and clarified that “Operating weight” is understood broadly as the machine’s own mass according to the manufacturer documentation, and equivalent terms may be accepted if properly documented.

✓Similarly, a supplier requested to relax the turning radius from 4.5 m to 4.56 m and to accept EPA Tier 2 emission standard; the authority refused, stating that the requirements reflect Lithuanian Armed Forces needs, are proportional and non‑discriminatory, so the original technical specification values apply.

✓Finally, the procurement procedure itself was later terminated (letter of 2026‑10‑23) after the Public Procurement Office identified issues in the documents that require substantial changes; from that notification onwards, the procedure is legally stopped and no award is made under the original conditions.
