The Public Procurement Disputes Committee reconsidered the proposal for the reconstruction of Sillamäe stadium. Part of the city government considered the offer from Eastconsult too cheap.
Sillamäe Deputy Mayor Aleksei Stepanov said that the city needs to better justify its decisions in the future. If an offer seems too low, the city must be certain. If not certain, the offer cannot be rejected.
The city decided to organize a new tender. Until a new company is found, the construction work is being supervised by city government specialists. This may worsen the quality of supervision.
Stepanov said that a contractual representative is usually more competent and can better control the contractor. This is also in the contractor's interest, as it allows for the correction of mistakes.
However, the stadium reconstruction is still on schedule. The deadline is July 1, 2026. The validity of one contract does not depend on the failure to conclude another.
The decision of the Public Procurement Disputes Committee cost Sillamäe over 2000 euros. The total cost of the stadium reconstruction is 3 million euros. Most of it is covered by state support. The stadium is being reconstructed by TREV-2 Grupp.
