According to the FSB department, in 2016, at the initiative of the managers, documentation was developed for the construction of a ground-underground parking garage in Barnaul, which received a positive assessment of the state expertise. As a result of the auction, a contractor was identified for the construction of the facility. The cost of the state contract amounted to more than 80 million rubles.
As noted in the law enforcement agency, in the future, to reduce costs, the customer and the contractor decided to make changes to the design and estimate documentation, which, according to the results of the state expertise, received a negative assessment.
