There Has Been Approved The Procedure For Organizing And Conducting E-Procurement In The Construction Industry In Uzbekistan

The Cabinet of Ministers adopted the Resolution “On
measures to improve the organization and conduct of electronic
procurement in the construction sector” No.6 dated January
31, 2022 (the “Resolution No.46”).

The Resolution No.46 approved the Regulation on the procedure
for organizing and conducting electronic procurement in the
construction industry (the “Regulation”). The
Regulation applies to tenders carried out by State customers for
the construction, reconstruction and overhaul of facilities
financed from the State budget, the budgetary system of Uzbekistan,
as well as other funds organized in budgetary organizations.

The Regulation includes such rules as:

• procedure for conducting an electronic tender;




• tasks of the participants (State customer, tender organizer,
  operator, etc.) of the electronic tender;




• provision of an electronic tender offer;




• personal account of the State customer, the organizer of the
  tender and the construction and contracting organization. A
  personal account is automatically formed upon entering the relevant
  information and registering with the help of an electronic digital
  signature in the electronic platform (a special information
  platform for conducting electronic tenders);




• posting of an announcement on holding electronic tenders by the
  tender organizer on the platform after studying the correctness and
  completeness of the documents submitted by the State customer;




• procedure for participation of applicants in the electronic
  tender. The applicant has the right to participate in the tender
  after passing all the conditions stipulated by the Regulations and
  paying a certain fee to the operator through a special bank account
  in the personal account;




• conclusion of a contract based on the results of an electronic
  tender;




• responsibility of participants of the electronic tender.

It should be noted that the Regulation applies to the electronic
tender in the field of construction, the cost of which under one
contract from the state customer exceeds 6,000 basic calculated
value (approximately USD 149,486). For other electronic trading,
the provisions of the Regulation are advisory in nature.
