Inquiry procurement is one of the government procurement methods stipulated in the Government Procurement Law. It is mainly suitable for government procurement projects with uniform goods specifications and standards, sufficient supply and small price changes. It can not only meet the procurement needs of few procurement units, small amount and tight time requirements, but also effectively save the cost of procurement process. For some centralized procurement institutions in poverty-stricken areas and small and medium-sized cities with small procurement scale, relatively few procurement tasks and difficult implementation of bidding methods,
What is the difference between direct inquiry procurement and inquiry bidding?
1, the definition is different.
Direct procurement by inquiry refers to a procurement method in which the purchaser sends an inquiry form to relevant suppliers for quotation, and compares and determines the best supplier on the basis of quotation. Inquiry and bidding is a link of bidding and purchasing. Put forward the conditions and requirements of procurement in the form of bidding, and invite many companies to participate in bidding. Buyers choose the best transaction object from them at one time according to the prescribed procedures and standards.
2. The process is different.
The process of inquiry procurement is single, and there is no specific form. The inquiry document is too thin, and it is often a quotation sheet, and the basic contract terms will be omitted. The process of inquiry bidding has its inherent characteristics or processes, and public bidding or invitation bidding is adopted for bidding. Bidders submit bidding documents; When opening bids and evaluating bids in public, the winning bidder shall be the one who fully meets the requirements.
3. Different application conditions.
The application of inquiry procurement is to meet the three conditions of unified technical specifications, sufficient supply and price change. Applicable conditions of inquiry and bidding Except that the Bidding Law clearly stipulates that three types of projects must be tendered, other procurement methods can be adopted according to the actual situation.
4. There are differences in openness.
The information disclosure of inquiry procurement is narrow and limited to a limited number of suppliers. For example, government inquiry procurement rarely publishes inquiry announcements in the designated media where government procurement information is released, which meets the minimum requirements of the three companies and is more exclusive. Information on inquiry, bidding and procurement is widely publicized, and relevant manufacturers are publicly or selectively invited to the public through advertisements, website publishing and other forms.
Generally speaking, government procurement generally adopts inquiry procurement, and inquiry work is an important part of bidding procedures. It is beneficial for the bidder to optimize the quotation and provide the basis for the quotation decision. Generally, the products purchased by inquiry are standardized, and only the price is regarded as the main purchasing standard. Do all bidders understand now?
