RESPONSE TO THE CHALLENGE IN THE PUBLIC PROCUREMENT: "PURCHASE OF 4×4
ARMOURED PERSONNEL CARRIERS FOR THE MOLDOVAN NATIONAL ARMY"
REFERENCE NUMBER 282071
1. To the extent that the third party has already submitted to the contracting authority
the justifications, evidence and explanations concerning the compliance of its tender
with the prohibition of cross-subsidisation as well as the justification of the value of
its tender, and the review committee has access to them, the third party will not
repeat them.
2. By examining the justifications, evidence and explanations submitted by the third
party regarding its tender, the review committee can unequivocally ascertain that
the appeal has been submitted on incorrect assumptions, that it contains misleading
ISO 9001:2015 certified CAGE Code: L0FQ3, DUNS:203520929
PROPRIETARY & CONFIDENTIAL
facts taken out of context and that it has no connection to real-life facts. Therefore,
the appeal must be dismissed and the contested decision must be upheld.
3. In connection with the opponent's request for information set out in clause 50 of the
appeal, the third party emphasises that Annex 1 to the reply submitted to the
contracting authority in the course of the inspection procedure conducted by the
contracting authority (presumably also submitted by the contracting authority to
the review committee) and the Excel spreadsheet (the file names of both documents
is emphasized "CONFIDENTIAL") are strictly confidential and cannot be submitted
to the opponent to any extent.
4. These documents contain a vital business secret for a third party, the disclosure of
which to the opponent could significantly damage the commercial prospects of the
third party, and on a wider global scale outside the contested public procurement.
In any event, the third party shall, if necessary, request the possibility of providing
further explanations in relation to the confidentiality of the documents in order to
provide justifications.
5. As the appeal contains several claims regarding facts that have already been
discussed in the previous appeal proceedings, the third party asks the review
committee to verify the deadline for filing such claims, taking into account the fact
that in their positions the deadline for filing a review may already be upon the expiry
of the deadline for filing a review of previous decisions.
