(PCU) - AASC Auditing Firm, Ho Chi Minh City Branch has just reflected on the Bidding Newspaper about being one way of being under the Central Power Management Project (PMU) of Central Region Electricity Corporation. absurd at 2 audit packages.
Specifically, AASC Auditing Firm, Ho Chi Minh City Branch, attended two audit packages of the Central Region Rural Power Project Management Board, including: Package Qng-TV-KT-11 Audit of completed projects belong to the project on building control center of Quang Ngai province and Package Qna-TV-KT-13 Auditing the settlement of completed projects under the Project of expanding and connecting remote control of 110 kV electric network in Quang Nam province.
Representative of Ho Chi Minh City Branch, AASC Auditing Firm, said that this contractor is not named in the list of contractors meeting the technical requirements of the above two bidding packages, but the bid solicitor did not specify the reason by.
After the Contractor made a written request to explain the reason, Ms. Tran Phuong Dung - Deputy Director of Ho Chi Minh City Branch of AASC said, the tenderer responded that it did not meet the requirements of the bidding documents. Due to the requirement to prove similar contracts is an audit contract of transformer station (TBA) 110 kV, while the Contractor demonstrates the construction of 220 kV substation. According to the Contractor, the disqualification in this case is not correct, the grounds are disqualified.
Ms. Tran Phuong Dung also has additional information, at the request of the bidding documents, each contractor must submit 3 similar contracts to carry out the 110 kV TBA project. The contractor has submitted 2 similar contracts to implement 110 kV TBA project and 1 similar contract to implement 220 kV substation.
In order to clarify the information that the Contractor reflects, the Bidding Newspaper has directly contacted the Central Rural Power Project Management Board via telephone number 0963494xxx (the bid solicitor has provided the Bidding Newspaper). However, the tenderer of the bid solicitor only answered tangerinely: The bid solicitor has sent a written reply to the contractor clearly about the reasons for being rejected. At the same time, he affirmed: "We have complied with the law" and refused to comment or provide more information.
What does the experts say?
Evaluation of this case, some experts in the electricity industry share, if in principle, the "project on file", that is, the bid must meet all requirements in the invitation file. bid, if not, it means disqualification. In this case, the bidding document specifies that the contractor must have 3 similar contracts which are 110 kV TBA contract audits, but of the 3 similar contracts provided by the Contractor, there is 1 inspection contract math works of 220 kV substation. Thus, in terms of the provisions of the bidding documents, the Contractor is disqualified.
However, an electrical industry expert stressed further, the invitation of the bidder to follow this principle is quite rigid, if not to say, is deliberately limiting the participating contractors. Technically in the electricity industry, the 220 kV substation is a complex and much larger scale than the 220 kV substation. Accordingly, the Contractor has performed the 220 kV substation works, can implement the TBA 110 kV project, otherwise not.
On the other hand, a consultant on analytical bidding, should first distinguish this is an audit package, not a construction package. The same contractual requirement of an audit package is how much money is required for that contract and each audit in the electricity industry. The introduction of this general requirement is to ensure that the contractor must be fully functional and knowledgeable about the electricity industry, but not necessarily have to carry out an audit of 110 kV or 220 kV electricity works ... math is a consulting service tender package, it is an audit contractor, they can do auditing for many different areas, not doing electricity but still auditing the electricity industry; used to audit traffic industry but can still audit the electricity industry ...
On the other hand, the contractor has a similar contract to audit the construction of 220 kV substation means that the contract has been implemented more complex, it is perfectly suitable to implement the package of a simpler nature - Audit of TBA 110 kV project. When the contractor has audited the project harder and has a larger scale, it is understood that there is an excess of capacity to audit the project smaller and easier.
"Therefore, it is not appropriate and limited to the participation of the bidder," the bid solicitors request for the nature of the contract, "said the expert. |
