The procurement involved providing development services for an information system “Automated System for Monitoring the Intensity and Composition of Traffic Flow for Vehicles Transporting Oversized and/or Heavy Cargo at Permanent Weight Control Points on Federal Highways within the Russian Federation,” including developing an intelligent module for recognizing license plates and creating a personal account for automatic weight and dimension control point owners (APVGK).
The supplier was expected to deliver services for the design and development of information technologies for practical tasks along with software testing.
The bidding was declared invalid in accordance with paragraph 1 of part 1 of article 52, “Recognition of an open competitive method as invalid. Consequences of such recognition,” of Federal Law No. 44-FZ “On the Contract System in the Sphere of Procurement of Goods, Works, and Services to Meet state and municipal needs” – due to the fact that by the end of the application submission period, only one application had been received.
According to the information posted on the page in the section “Result of determining the supplier (contractor, performer) based on posted protocols,” the column “Participants with whom it is planned to conclude a contract” indicates the identification number of the sole participant and winner of the electronic auction, but the name of the company remains undisclosed.
The essence of the claims by the two companies
In the complaint from PJSC “Vimpel-Communications“, four main points were raised. They argue that the customer government procurement does not prohibit software from foreign sources; the maximum values for the evaluation criteria of applications were improperly set; a standardized contract form was not applied; and the procurement object’s description lacked necessary information and characteristics.

Similarly, OOO “Softline Project” filed a complaint against the public procurement notice’s provisions. Firstly, they assert that the customer incorrectly determined the maximum values of significance for evaluating applications in the procurement of goods, works, and services to meet state and municipal needs. Secondly, they objected to allowing only contracts related to the development, implementation, maintenance, and modernization of software that records passage vehicles, including cargo, which unreasonable restricts the number of participants by narrowing the definition of “comparable subject of the contract.”
According to a comment from “Rosavtodor,” an organization representing the interests of the Federal State Institution “Rosdormonitoring,” a decision is still awaited regarding the issue FAS Russia. “The decision from this executive body will determine the further course of action regarding the stated government purchase (including the overall supplier determination),” a representative of Rosavtodor explained. Beeline has declined to comment on the situation. Requests for comments from Softline Projects are also unanswered.

The Essence of the Claims of the Two Companies
In the complaint from PJSC “Vimpel-Communications” contains four points. They argue that the customer government procurement has not banned the admission of software originating from foreign countries; the maximum values for the significance of the criteria for evaluating applications were unlawfully established; the mandatory form of a standard contract was not applied, and the description of the procurement object did not contain the necessary information and characteristics.
On the other hand, OOO “Softline Project” filed a complaint regarding the procurement notice. They believe that the customer has incorrectly set the maximum values of significance for evaluating applications for participation in the procurement of goods, works, and services to meet state and municipal needs. They protest against the fact that only contracts for the development, implementation, maintenance, and modernization of software related to the systems of recording passages were accepted for evaluation, thus unreasonably limiting the number of participants.
According to the comment from “Rosavtodor,” an organization representing the interests of the Federal State Institution “Rosdormonitoring,” the decision is still awaited on this matter. “And it is precisely the decision of this executive body that will determine further actions regarding the designated state purchase (including determining the supplier as a whole),” a representative of Rosavtodor outlined the state of affairs. Beeline declined to comment on the situation, and a request for comment from Softline Projects has also gone unanswered.
