FAS: additional requirements in public procurement are applied regardless of the scope of the customer's activity

10 March 2022, Thursday

A participant in the procurement of cleaning services for the premises of the court complained that the customer illegally established additional requirements. They need to be applied if the customer's field of activity relates to healthcare, education or science.
The supervisors did not agree with this: additional requirements in the purchase are applied regardless of the scope of the customer's activity.
A similar position is taken by the Ministry of Finance. Note that in practice there is a different opinion.
