Vergabeverfahren Stahl- und Holzbauarbeiten Neubau Hallenbad Zuffenhausen (LHS Stuttgart)

✓The input text concerns an EU-wide public procurement procedure under VOB/A (Section 2) for “Stahl- und Holzbauarbeiten” (steel and timber construction works) for the new indoor swimming pool “Hallenbad Zuffenhausen” in Stuttgart, Germany.

✓It reflects the perspective of a German public contracting authority (Landeshauptstadt Stuttgart), operating under German procurement and construction contract rules (VOB/A, VOB/B, LTMG Baden‑Württemberg, German tax and labour law).

✓The text consists mainly of standard VHB-Bund form sheets (211, 212, 213, 214, 216, 221–223, 233–236, 444 etc.) and the TED notice, adapted with project-specific additions.

✓Such as for bidder obligations, the documents specify that offers must be submitted electronically via the platform www.meinauftrag.rib.de in German language, using the prescribed forms (notably 213 EU Angebotsschreiben and the priced Leistungsverzeichnis).

✓Formblatt 216 lists what must accompany the offer: the Angebotsschreiben, LV with prices, any product indications, and—where applicable—forms 224 (Lohngleitklausel), 233 (Nachunternehmerleistungen), 234 (Bietergemeinschaft), 235 (Kapazitäten anderer Unternehmen), 248 (Holzprodukte) and any proof of minimum requirements (e.g. data sheets, special evidence).

✓For non-prequalified bidders, an Eigenerklärung zur Eignung (Form 124) or a Einheitliche Europäische Eigenerklärung (EEE) is required as preliminary proof, later to be backed up by formal certificates (tax, Sozialkasse, Berufsgenossenschaft, Handwerkskarte, references, etc.) on request.

✓Prequalified bidders can simply give their PQ number.

✓Such as regarding minimum qualification, the TED notice and Form 216/124 define the criteria: general annual turnover in the last three financial years for comparable construction services (though no concrete minimum turnover is set), reference projects from the last five years (at least three references when requested, with detailed technical and quantitative information, confirmed by clients via Form 444), average annual staff numbers over the last three years broken down by wage groups and technical management personnel, and evidence of registration in a relevant professional register.

✓Specifically, bidders in Germany must prove a Handwerkskarte as Zimmerer and/or Metallbauer (or equivalent, decided by the Handwerkskammer Stuttgart) and provide a Schweißnachweis nach EN 1090 EXC 2. Further, on request, they must submit Gewerbeanmeldung/Handelsregisterauszug, Unbedenklichkeitsbescheinigungen (tax office, Sozialkasse, Berufsgenossenschaft), and a Freistellungsbescheinigung § 48b EStG.

❓There are no explicit project-specific minimum thresholds for turnover or staff; the authority states “keine” for concrete minimum requirements, but completeness and plausibility of the above evidence is essential.

✓Such as for the scope of the contract, the service is “Stahl- und Holzbauarbeiten” for the “Neubau Hallenbad Zuffenhausen” in Stuttgart (postal code 70437), performed for the Landeshauptstadt Stuttgart.

✓The LV excerpt shows that the scope includes not only structural steel and timber works, but also obligations around site logistics, participation in site meetings with a decision-capable representative, just‑in‑time material delivery coordination, weekly written 14‑day look-ahead schedules, and restrictions on advertising on site.
