1. The subject of the order is the supply of four low-temperature freezers for IHAR-PIB. 2. A detailed description of the subject of the order is included in the Description of the subject of the order (attachments no. 1 to the SWZ). 3. The proceedings are conducted in an open tender procedure, in accordance with art. 132 of the Act of September 11, 2019, Public Procurement Law (consolidated text: Journal of Laws of 2024, item 1320, as amended), hereinafter referred to as the "Act" or "uPzp", with an estimated value equal to or exceeding the "EU threshold" within the meaning of art. 3 of the Act. 4. The contracting authority has not divided the order into parts and therefore does not allow the submission of partial offers. Justification: Dividing the order into parts is not justified due to the occurrence of technical and integration risks, in particular the risk of incompatibility of individual equipment components, dispersion of service responsibility, increased logistical costs, and organizational difficulties. The subject of the order constitutes a functionally integrated whole. Furthermore, due to the principle of rational expenditure of funds by the Contracting Authority, dividing the order into parts is not purposeful. At the same time, the order in its entirety is adapted to the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises within the meaning of Annex I to Commission Regulation (EU) No. 651/2014 of June 17, 2014. 5. If, when describing the subject of the order, the Contracting Authority refers to norms, technical assessments, technical specifications, and technical reference systems referred to in art. 101 sec. 2 and sec. 3 of the Public Procurement Law, equivalent solutions to those described are permitted. Any wording in the SWZ referring to norms, technical assessments, technical specifications, and technical reference systems should be read with the accompanying note "or equivalent". 6. In cases where indications of trademarks, patents, or origin appear in the description of the subject of the order, it should be understood in accordance with art. 99 sec. 5-6 of the Public Procurement Law that this is justified by the specificity of the subject of the order and the Contracting Authority cannot describe the subject of the order using sufficiently precise terms. In such circumstances, the Contracting Authority allows the submission of equivalent solutions in the offer, indicating that the minimum requirements that equivalent solutions must meet are requirements (functionalities) no worse than the parameters (functionalities) indicated in the Description of the subject of the order. 7. The contractor who refers to solutions equivalent to those described by the Contracting Authority is obliged to indicate in the offer which offer items contain equivalent solutions along with their description or norms and to demonstrate that the equivalent solutions offered by him meet the requirements specified by the Contracting Authority, in particular by means of objective evidence. 8. The Contracting Authority does not allow the submission of variant offers. 9. The Contracting Authority does not foresee the conclusion of a framework agreement. 10. The Contracting Authority does not foresee the selection of an offer using an electronic auction. 11. The Contracting Authority does not foresee reimbursement of costs of participation in the proceedings, subject to art. 261 of the Public Procurement Law. 12. The Contracting Authority does not foresee the requirements referred to in art. 96 sec. 1 of the Public Procurement Law. 13. The Contracting Authority does not allow the submission of offers in the form of electronic catalogs or the attachment of electronic catalogs to the offer. 14. The Contracting Authority does not foresee the possibility of awarding contracts referred to in art. 214 sec. 1 point 8 of the Public Procurement Law. 15. The Contracting Authority, based on art. 257 sec. 1 of the Public Procurement Law, foresees the possibility of annulling the procurement procedure if public funds intended by the Contracting Authority to finance all or part of the order have not been granted to it. 16. Source of financing: The order is co-financed by the European Union funds under the National Reconstruction and Resilience Plan, based on agreement no.
