Lieferung von gewöhnlichem Büromaterial für den allgemeinen und nicht spezialisierten Gebrauch, das für die Funktionsfähigkeit der verschiedenen Abteilungen und Dienste der Provinzialrat von Salamanca erforderlich ist.

✓The contract duration is two years from formalisation, with the possibility of a single one‑year extension, and a prior modification up to 16,110.64 € (20% of the initial maximum budget) if needs exceed estimates.

✓Deliveries are to be made within a maximum ordinary period of three business days from order (or a shorter contractual period offered by the bidder), to the centres indicated in the PPT or other provincial centres, without additional cost.

✓Orders are placed telematically by the Services Generales department; there is no minimum order amount or minimum number of units per order.

✓The tender is run as a “procedimiento abierto simplificado” with a 15‑day period to submit electronic offers via the Plataforma de Contratación, and the economic offers are opened in a private session on the specified date.

✓Such as in the sections on award criteria, risks, penalties, guarantees, and special conditions, the contract is awarded based on the best quality‑price ratio quantified by formulae.

✓The two award criteria are: (1) a single percentage discount (up to 80 points) applied to all maximum unit prices in Annex I and to the public sale price (PVP) of non‑listed items; the highest discount gets 80 points and others are scaled linearly; discounts below 0% or equal/above 100% are not allowed; and (2) reduction of the ordinary delivery period (up to 20 points), where three days earns 0 points, two days 10 points, and one day 20 points, with no fractional days.

✓The percentage discount is contractual and fixed for the entire duration, including any extension.

✓Offers exceeding the tender base amount are not admissible, and no variants, alternatives, partial or conditioned offers are allowed.

✓There is a system to detect “anormalidad” (abnormally low offers) based on an “importe económico anual equivalente” (IEA) computed from the tender annual amount and discount, applying article 85 of RGLCAP and the procedure in article 149 LCSP, with a five‑day period to justify such offers.

✓Risks are addressed through various penalty regimes (for delays, non‑delivery, non‑conforming products, and breach of the environmental execution condition), the possibility of contract resolution for repeated serious breaches (e.g. incorrect pricing, unjustified refusal to supply, repeated unauthorised substitutions, repeated delivery delays), and a requirement for a definitive guarantee of 5% of the contract price as indicated in the platform notice.

✓Subcontracting and assignment are allowed under LCSP articles 214–217, but the main contractor remains solely responsible vis‑à‑vis the Diputación, and the environmental execution condition (reduction of packaging waste, recyclable/reusable packaging, removal of packaging at the client’s request) applies equally to subcontractors.

✓Such as in the discussion of special execution conditions, confidentiality and data protection, the documents set out that the contractor must respect confidentiality under article 133 LCSP, but bidders cannot declare their entire offer confidential indiscriminately.

✓It is not foreseen that the contract involves personal data processing on behalf of the Diputación beyond normal contact data for ordering and delivery; if such processing becomes necessary, a formal data processing agreement compliant with EU Regulation 2016/679 and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018 must be signed beforehand.

✓There is a specific environmental condition of execution with sanctions for non‑compliance and an obligation to manage packaging responsibly.

✓The contract is expressly stated to be non‑harmonised (value below EU threshold, 216,000 €) and subject to Spanish administrative jurisdiction for any disputes.
