The order of evaluation of applications should be associated with the procurement object under the Law N 223-ФЗ
The participant in the procurement of works on the development of design and estimate documentation complained that the procedure for evaluating applications by the “Business Reputation” indicator does not allow to objectively identify the qualifications of participants. It is not associated with the purchase object.
Goodwill was evaluated based on:
- licenses in the field of protection (preservation) of cultural heritage objects, namely: how many - continuous years the participant has it;
- written justification of the break between the license validity periods (if there was one);
- information on the date of registration of the organization.
The antimonopoly authority supported the participant. He recognized this approach as formal and biased, since the assessment procedure:
- not associated with qualifications (it is impossible to determine it), as well as with the activities of the company in the market for works on the subject of procurement;
- not based on information confirming the level of business reputation. It cannot be determined on the basis of licenses issued.
Also, OFAS noted that the procedure for providing written justification for a break is subjective. He does not allow to evaluate the reasons that explain the break.
