2018HBA003_41 Ventilation BA 2 - 2027

✓The estimated execution period runs from 31/05/2027 to 10/09/2027, with Ausführungsfristen and Vertragsfristen further detailed in the Besondere Vertragsbedingungen (214.H), which link the binding start and completion dates, as well as individual milestones, to the bidder’s construction time schedule (Bauzeitenplan) that must be submitted.

✓Although Formblatt 216 mentions “Unterlagen zu den Zuschlagskriterien” including an acceleration rule, the TED notice clarifies that in this tender the sole award criterion is price, so the Bauzeitenplan serves mainly to operationalise the contractual deadlines and the related contractual penalties rather than to influence the award decision.

✓Award criteria and their weighting are addressed both generically in the VHB forms and specifically in the TED notice.

✓Such as, 211 EU provides the general structure for price‑based and multi‑criteria awards, referring to Formblatt 227.H for weighted criteria; however, the TED section 5.1.10 states explicitly that “Der Preis ist das einzige Zuschlagskriterium” and repeats that the price is the only factor, without additional qualitative criteria.

✓Where 211 EU speaks of “Mehrere Zuschlagskriterien gemäß Formblatt 227.H – Gewichtung der Zuschlagskriterien”, this is overridden for this specific procedure by the TED notice, so the applicable rule here is: lowest evaluated price wins, based on after‑checked offer sums and considering unconditional discounts, possible effects of the Lohngleitklausel, and any maintenance offers.

✓Variants (Nebenangebote) and electronic catalogues are expressly “nicht zulässig”; multiple offers per bidder are also “nicht zulässig”, so competition takes place between single, strictly comparable offers, assessed solely by price.

✓Risks and special conditions are set out primarily in the Besondere Vertragsbedingungen (214.H), the Teilnahmebedingungen EU (212EU), and the TED notice.

✓Such as, 214.H defines contractual penalties (Vertragsstrafen) under §11 VOB/B: in one part as a configurable amount or percentage of the order sum per working day of delay, and in another part more concretely as 0.1 % of the objectively justified billing sum per day, capped at 5 % of that sum; the relevant concrete percentages/amounts are specified in the project‑specific version cited (e.g. 0.1 % and 5 %).

✓Guarantee/security provisions under §17 VOB/B include: security for contract performance and for defect claims may be required above a threshold of 250,000 € net, in percentages to be inserted and provided via standard guarantee forms; in principle, security can also be waived, but the project‑specific sheet leaves open that above the threshold security is to be furnished.

✓Subcontracting and use of other companies’ capacities is allowed but regulated: the bidder must list such services in forms 233/235, and, on request, obtain binding Verpflichtungserklärungen (Formblatt 236) including joint liability where financial capacity is borrowed (Eignungsleihe).

✓Questions and requests for clarification must be raised promptly per 212EU; the TED notice sets 04/11/2026, 09:50 as deadline for requesting additional information.

❓A formal site visit is not mentioned in the provided excerpts, but bidders must immediately notify the contracting authority of any perceived ambiguities or errors in the tender documents.

✓Finally, the documents contain several apparent contradictions or overlapping statements, and the applicable rule must be derived from the hierarchy and project‑specific entries.

✓Such as, 211 EU in its generic form mentions that multiple main offers can be allowed (“Die Abgabe von mehr als einem Hauptangebot ist zugelassen/nicht zugelassen”), but the TED notice explicitly states “Die Bieter können mehrere Angebote einreichen: Nicht zulässig” — the project‑specific entry prevails, so only one main offer per bidder is allowed.

✓Similarly, 211 EU and 212EU refer to Nebenangebote and to Formblatt 226.H for minimum requirements; yet the TED entry “Varianten: Nicht zulässig” and the project‑specific use of 211 EU section 6.1 (“Nebenangebote sind nicht zugelassen”) mean that alternative bids are not admitted for this tender.

✓Where Formblatt 216 and 211 EU speak of “Unterlagen zu den Zuschlagskriterien” including an acceleration rule and a Bauzeitenplan, the TED clearly qualifies that the only Zuschlagskriterium is price; therefore, the Bauzeitenplan and insurance proof are mandatory contract documents but do not influence award scoring beyond enabling a compliant bid.

✓On Nachforderungen, the TED states that “Nach Ermessen des Käufers können alle fehlenden Bieterunterlagen nach Fristablauf nachgereicht werden“ with reference to §16 EU ff. and §15 EU VOB/A, while 211 EU/212EU/216 distinguish between documents to be submitted with the offer and those to be provided on request.

✓Interpreting these together, the binding rule is: all documents listed as “mit dem Angebot abzugeben” must normally be submitted with the bid; missing ones can be requested and supplemented at the buyer’s discretion within the legal framework, and evidentiary documents to confirm the Eigenerklärung must be furnished within six calendar days of request, failing which the offer will be excluded.
