Technical specification for supply of metal products to the Lithuanian Armed Forces
The input text is a technical specification for “Metalo dirbiniai” (metal products) approved by a unit of the Lithuanian Armed Forces, specifically the Karolis Chodkevičius Infantry Brigade “Žemaitija”, Kęstutis Margiris Infantry Battalion.
It focuses on describing the technical and quality requirements for various metal products to be supplied, in the context of Lithuanian public procurement and Lithuanian law.
The country point of view is clearly Lithuania, as seen from references to the Lithuanian Armed Forces and “Lietuvos Respublikos teisės aktai”.
The document sets out general and mandatory technical requirements for the metal products to be delivered.
Such as, it states that all supplied products must be new, unused, free from mechanical damage, cracks, deformations, corrosion or other defects that could affect their use.
Products must comply with all dimensions, material types, thickness, length and other parameters described in the technical specification, and must be properly packaged and protected from damage and deformation during transport.
Where not otherwise stated, the supplier must deliver products in standard manufacturer dimensions, respecting permissible tolerances.
Regarding the scope of the contract (what, how much, where, when), the text specifies detailed characteristics of each type of metal product, but in the excerpt does not show exact quantities per item beyond the measurement units and typical lengths.
Such as, it lists: galvanized mesh with specified height, mesh size and wire thickness (measured in meters, roll length 25 m); steel chain with defined diameters and link length (measured in meters); pins 8×80 mm with locking mechanism (measured in units); square metal tubes of 25×25 mm and 30×30 mm with wall thickness limits and standard lengths (6 m and 3 m); rope clamps for 3 mm cable; steel strips of defined width and thickness (2 m length, measured in meters); galvanized steel ropes and cables with specified diameters, breaking force and tensile strength; hinges with adjustable screw M20; bolts and nuts with specific thread ranges, lengths and strength class; steel angle sections and thin-walled pipes with specified dimensions and lengths.
The place of performance is only indirectly indicated as “užsakovo nurodyta pristatymo vieta” (delivery place indicated by the contracting authority), and the period or delivery schedule is not defined in this excerpt.
As to what the bidder must submit and minimum qualification requirements (forms, references, turnover, insurance, certificates), the provided text does not specify any such administrative or qualification requirements.
It describes only technical product specifications and general obligations related to quality and delivery.
Show all 24 statements
There is no mention of required tender forms, experience references, financial turnover thresholds, insurance obligations, or required conformity/quality certificates, beyond the implicit requirement that products meet the technical parameters and Lithuanian legal requirements.
Any information on bidder qualification, submission format or procurement procedure would have to be taken from other tender documents that are not included in this excerpt.
On award criteria and weighting, the text is silent.
There is no indication whether the contract will be awarded on the basis of lowest price, best price-quality ratio, or other criteria, and no percentage weighting or evaluation methodology is mentioned.
Similarly, there is no reference to how the contracting authority will compare offers that propose different brands or designs, as long as they meet the described technical parameters.
Thus, the input text cannot be used to determine the award criteria.
For risks and special conditions (penalties, guarantees, subcontracting, validity period, question deadline, site visit), the main relevant information is the warranty and delivery obligations.
Such as, the supplier guarantees that delivered products comply with the technical specification and the offer; if during the warranty period products are found to be non-compliant, defective or inconsistent with the declared technical parameters, the supplier must, at its own expense, replace them with conforming products.
The supplier must replace non-compliant or poor-quality products no later than within 10 working days from receipt of the contracting authority’s written notice, unless the parties agree on a different term.
The warranty obligations must not limit the rights of the contracting authority established in Lithuanian legislation.
Additionally, the supplier must ensure delivery of products to the delivery place indicated by the contracting authority and must protect products from mechanical damage, deformation and other environmental impacts during delivery; if discrepancies between ordered and delivered products are found, the supplier must, at its own expense, correct the discrepancies or replace unsuitable products.
However, the text does not mention contractual penalties, performance guarantees, subcontracting rules, tender validity period, deadline for questions or any site visit requirements.
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 28/10/2026
