The courts did not recognize the hospital employee as a valid reason for not signing the contract
The winner of the procurement did not sign the contract and did not provide security for the contract execution on time. The customer applied to the control body to recognize the organization as evading the contract. The antimonopoly authority entered the violator into the register of unscrupulous suppliers.
The company tried to challenge this decision. The contract could not be signed on time, since during the entire allotted for this period the responsible employee was on sick leave. The courts did not accept the argument. This circumstance does not exclude the application of measures of public responsibility. The winner did not prove that the contract could not be signed by another digitally signed employee. The organization had enough time to resolve the problem, sign a contract and provide security.
The Supreme Court did not review the case.
Let us remind you that the control bodies have a different position.
