Centralized Purchase of Apples for Kaunas City

The Kaunas City Municipality is seeking suppliers for the procurement of food products, specifically apples, for educational and social service institutions within the city. The required specifications for the apples are detailed in the technical specifications document. The estimated quantities of apples to be purchased are also outlined in this document and the proposal form. However, the purchasing organization does not guarantee the purchase of all specified quantities. This procurement is part of the municipality's initiative to centralize purchasing functions, as authorized by the city council's decision on May 24, 2022. A preliminary purchasing agreement will be established with up to three suppliers who submit acceptable proposals according to the procurement documents. This agreement will allow for the purchase of related food products, with a budget of up to 10% of the initial contract value allocated for these additional items. The preliminary contract will be executed through a partially renewed competitive bidding process.
