The Russian Ministry of Finance explained the rules for procurement of construction works with the supply of goods under 44-FZ
The specialists of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation provided important clarifications regarding the specifics of procurement of construction works, during which goods are supplied within the framework of Federal Law 44-FZ.
In its letter dated September 10, 2025, the agency noted that if goods are supplied to the customer during the performance of works or services, then the standard provisions of Law 44-FZ on Procurement of Goods apply to such goods, unless otherwise provided by law.
It is important to keep in mind that in accordance with Part 6 of Article 24 of Law 44-FZ, customers are required to purchase goods, works and services included in special lists (approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 03/21/2016 No. 471-r or additional lists of subjects of the Russian Federation) exclusively through auctions. Exceptions are cases of conducting an electronic request for quotations or purchasing from a single supplier.
The Ministry of Finance also clarified that when deciding on the application of standard contract terms, customers should be guided by a similar approach. At the same time, the terms of standard contracts approved before the entry into force of Federal Law No. 360-FZ dated 07/02/2021 are applied to the extent that they do not contradict Law 44-FZ, until the approval by the Government of the Russian Federation of new standard terms.
The full text of the explanations is available in the letter of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation dated 09/10/2025.
