SE “Medical Procurements of Ukraine” of the Ministry of Health 9 October, based on the results of a request (price) for proposals, ordered from Medradiophysics-Plus LLC accelerators for 168,80 million UAH (payment for the goods is exempt from VAT due to a tax benefit). This is reported in the Prozorro system.
By 5 February 2027 the paid-in-advance delivered on DDP terms will be two Elekta Harmony medical linear accelerators with an equipment package for 84,40 million UAH, or $1,88 million each. The manufacturer is Elekta Solutions AB (Sweden). The package includes an accelerator with energy of 6 MV, a treatment couch up to 200 kg with remote control, a patient laser positioning system, a patient video monitoring system, a two-way internal patient communication system, two sets for a contouring workstation, two sets for a treatment planning workstation, four sets for an information-management system workstation, a server with Microsoft operating system with a voltage stabilizer, an uninterruptible power supply with a battery kit for 10 minutes, etc.
Funding will be from the state budget under the code “Implementation of public investment projects in the field of healthcare.” The procurement was conducted in accordance with the Framework Agreement between Ukraine and the EU on special mechanisms for implementing Union financing for Ukraine under the Ukraine Facility instrument. Participants had to be registered in acceptable countries, and all goods had to originate from acceptable countries in accordance with Ukraine Facility requirements.
In November 2024 the “Medical Procurements” by request for proposals ordered from the same company Elekta Harmony accelerators with an equipment package for 57,90 million UAH, or $1,40 million, i.e., a quarter cheaper. At that time the medical-technical requirements were the same, and the funding was from the state budget without European funds and without requirements regarding acceptable countries. The medical-technical requirements that can be directly compared with those specified in the requests for proposals in 2026 and 2024 years were the same.
And in September 2023 the price for “Medical Procurements” from the same supplier in open tenders was 36,07 million UAH, or $986 thousand, which is twice as cheap.
As for other buyers, only one procurement of this model was found. In December 2022 the Zhytomyr Regional Oncology Dispensary through open tenders ordered from the same company an Elekta Harmony accelerator with an equipment package for 74,99 million UAH, or $2,05 million including VAT 7%. This is more expensive than the “MPU” purchases, but the detailed requirements were written differently, making comparison difficult. In particular, there was one planning and contouring workstation.
The competitor was Innovatek Med LLC with Halcyon accelerators. The savings amounted to 2%.
Founded in 2019 by the Kyiv company Medradiophysics-Plus, the company is owned by Olha Kukhar (Stupchyk) from Volyn. The duties of the company director during his leave are performed by Olena Smolovyk. According to the analytical system YouControl, previously the company was registered in Mykolaiv to local resident Oleksandr Solovyov, and Kukhar only ran it. Currently Solovyov owns and manages the Mykolaiv Medradiophysics, which was founded in 2020.
Overall since 2020 the winner has received state contracts totaling 1,93 billion UAH.
