The state-owned company "Automagistrali", which was at the heart of the in-house scandal with the "Hemus" highway, continues to conclude large contracts with the state road agency without tender or competition. In this case, it is a contract for 44.9 million. BGN, signed at the beginning of November. For winter maintenance and emergency repairs in the regions of Vratsa and Vidin, on the highway "Hemus" to Lovech, as well as almost 167 km from "Struma", with each of the five sites costing more than 8 million. BGN For two years in the period 2018 - 2020. The last regular government of GERB in coalition with "United Patriots" awarded contracts for 4.6 billion BGN on "Highways". For its part, the state-owned company used unofficial subcontractors in absolute violation of the law. It is not clear whether "Automagistrali" actually has enough equipment for snow removal if it has to be used simultaneously in Vidin, near Lovech and towards Blagoevgrad. At the beginning of 2023 API has announced an order for highway maintenance, winter and emergency, for over 715 million. BGN without VAT in total, for a period of four years. It was terminated during the administration of the "Denkov" cabinet, then renewed in May 2024. during the office of Dimitar Glavchev. In the end, in the period between July and October of this year, the API decided to remove the candidates from the positions for "Hemus" near Lovech and for "Struma", while contracts were concluded for "Trakia", "Maritsa" and "Hemus" near Varna. Contractors have been selected for the two positions for Struma, but contracts have not been signed due to appeals in the CPC. The situation with the roads in Vidin and Vratsa, which are also included in the contract of "Automagistrali", is similar. The agency announces a tender for the maintenance in the areas of North-West Bulgaria in February 2023, the bids are collected the following month. However, she has not been able to sign contracts with contractors for almost two years now. So far, only those have been selected for Lovech and Pleven - respectively the companies "Viastroy" and a merger between the same and "Road Engineering". Both companies are ultimately owned by Grigor Ivanov, who also owns some of the largest construction companies such as "Road Engineering-T". Until six years ago, the state-owned company, which is under the umbrella of the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works, was little known, even to construction companies. In December 2018 however, by a decree of the Council of Ministers, the cabinet directed 1.34 billion. BGN from the then surplus of the state budget to the company for the construction of the highway "Hemus" after Boaz. The Road Infrastructure Agency signed a contract with Automagistrali, whose management claimed to have the capacity to build the 130 km of the route in question. This turned out to be false. Another contract for "Hemus" for 1.38 billion followed. BGN, a contract for the strengthening of landslides and the construction of 65 km of the high-speed Vidin - Botevgrad for BGN 1.083 billion. BGN The problem is that one company alone cannot build all this in adequate time, let alone a state-owned one. According to the Public Procurement Act, on the basis of which these contracts are concluded, the company has no right to use subcontractors and must do all the work itself. However, "Automagistrali" has actually always used such. Already in 2021 an investigation by "Capital" showed that the company paid more than 1 billion BGN of private companies. Thus, the company became the largest construction company with its turnover for 2021. and 2022 In 2022 its revenues had reached 510 million BGN, and in 2023 is in third place with almost 317 million BGN
