The O.O. Bohomolets National Medical University 8 September, following the tender results, contracted Green Trading LLC to repair the dormitory building for 66,73 million UAH. This is reported in the Prozorro system.
By the end of the year, the five-story dormitory No.5 at 14b Hrushetska Street is to be repaired. The works include partial thermal modernization of the façades and attic ceiling, replacement of 269 windows, installation of new paving, restoration of damaged reinforced concrete structures and brick walls, the basement entrance, and porches. They also plan to restore parapets, cornices, gutters, waterproofing, and paint coatings on metal window grilles.
The works are financed from the state budget. The contract price is dynamic and includes 813 thousand UAH to cover risks and 2,39 million UAH for inflation (amounts and prices here and below include VAT). According to paragraph 5.31 of the Guidelines for Determining Construction Costs No.281, for a dynamic contract price funds to cover risks are not taken into account.
In the information about material prices, metal-plastic windows with a two-chamber insulated glass unit sized 2100x1400 mm and Steko Ideal profile 7000 were accounted for at 27 695 UAH/unit, or 9 420 UAH/sq. m. “Market Windows” and “Market Doors” sell the same at an identical price of 3 724 UAH/sq. m, which is 2,5 times cheaper.
Izovat mineral wool 135 kg/sq. m with a thickness of 100 mm was ordered at 731 UAH/sq. m. Itera Group Ltd sells it at 580 UAH/sq. m, which is 21% cheaper. And the Kub base offers it at 599 UAH/sq. m, which is 18% cheaper.
Izovat wool 135 kg/sq. m with a thickness of 150 mm was listed at 1 096 UAH/sq. m. Kub sells it at 639 UAH/sq. m, and Itera Group Ltd at 870 UAH/sq. m. That is 21-42% cheaper.
Adhesive mixture Ceresit CT 190 Pro was ordered at 29 UAH/kg. Venbud sells it at 22 UAH/kg, and Bud Platforma at 25 UAH/kg, which is 14-24% cheaper.
The probable overpayment on the identified items amounts to more than 5 million hryvnias.
The average monthly salary for one worker in full-time employment and job grade 3,8 is 42 888 UAH. According to Work.ua, the average salary in Kyiv for jobs in the construction sector is slightly higher – 48 500 UAH.
The company received the contract without competition because no one else submitted to the open tender.
To participate in the tender, companies had to confirm the availability of engineering and technical staff with higher education by providing copies of their diplomas. The participant also had to have at least 7 workers in the main construction professions with documents proving the appropriate qualifications and confirmation of training and knowledge testing in occupational safety.
During the clarification period a potential participant asked the contracting authority to remove the requirement for an engineer-designer of at least Category I with a qualification certificate regarding the assurance of mechanical resistance and stability of objects with consequence class not lower than CC2. The participant noted that the procurement concerns an overhaul of a dormitory according to already developed and approved project-and-estimate documentation, so the contractor will not develop or correct the project nor make design decisions. In his view, this requirement is unrelated to the subject of the procurement, is disproportionate, and restricts competition.
The contracting authority did not satisfy the request. It referred to Article 16 of the Law “On Public Procurement,” which allows the contracting authority to independently determine requirements for employee qualifications, and explained that the works on insulating the façade, the attic ceiling, and replacing windows concern enclosing and load-bearing structures of a building with consequence class CC2.
In the contracting authority’s view, an engineer-designer is needed for prompt and qualified support of the works, particularly in case of detecting hidden defects or the need to clarify design solutions during the repair. Moreover, the specialist may be engaged not only as a staff employee but also under a civil law contract, a subcontract, or a subagreement. Therefore, the contracting authority considers the requirement justified, proportionate, and non-discriminatory and left it unchanged.
The contracting authority also set a financial capability requirement: the participant’s net revenue from sales of products, goods, and services for 2025 year had to be at least 100% of the expected procurement value.
The rector of O.O. Bohomolets National Medical University is Yurii Kuchyn; the authorized procurement officer is Olha Sulyma.
Kyiv’s Green Trading belongs to Mykola Rudenko. He also owns Ukr Tetris Bud together with Yevhen Dovbysh and Oil Technologies with Maryna Korol and Serhii Syrovatka.
Before the invasion, Nashy Hroshi reported that the police investigated a scheme involving officials of the Darnytsia RDA and Mykola Rudenko. The investigation believed the group organized systematic embezzlement of funds allocated for repairs of the district’s utility infrastructure and received kickbacks of 10-15%. However, the criminal proceedings in this matter were closed in 2021.
Since 2016 year Green Trading has received government contracts worth 1,78 billion UAH, mostly from the current contracting authority and the Darnytsia RDA education department.
