How to review the bidding documents? A strategy worth seeing.

Bidding documents are the most important documents in the bidding process, and their level and quality are related to the success or failure of the whole bidding activity. Document audit is a very important link in the process of quality control of bidding documents. How to audit the bidding documents to ensure the quality of the bidding documents after they are compiled? The following tender protection series discusses how to review the tender documents from the aspects of completeness, form, conformity, essence and rationality.

I. completeness of audit

No matter what article you write, there are corresponding requirements. Honesty is the most basic requirement, as is the preparation of tender documents. Check whether a tender document is complete, mainly to check whether the whole document framework includes the contents stipulated by laws and regulations.

Second, formal audit.

Just like the writing of a paper, the bidding documents are formatted, and the cover should indicate the project name, tenderer, bidding agent, release date, preparer, reviewer, date and signature (or electronic seal). The bidding documents shall include the invitation to bid, the instructions for bidding, the main terms of the contract, the format of the bidding documents for commercial bid, the format of the bidding documents for technical bid, the technical terms, the bid evaluation standards and methods, and the bill of quantities (bidding by bill of quantities). Key substantive content is highlighted in a special font.

With the popularization of electronic bidding, especially in housing construction and municipal infrastructure projects, the special tools for making electronic bidding documents can be used to solidify the locking format, which greatly reduces the workload of auditors. Jiangsu Province has formulated the template of bidding documents for housing construction and municipal infrastructure projects and supervision services, and is in the process of publicity, and will soon launch the corresponding special tools for making bidding documents.

Three. Audit compliance

Whether the bidding documents are legal and compliant is closely related to the smooth progress of government procurement projects. Non-compliant documents may cause doubts and complaints from suppliers, which may lead to suspension and extension of the project. If the problem of documents is not found in time, what is more serious is that the procurement will be resumed because it is illegal, which will further affect the procurement efficiency.

Four. Substantive review

Substantive audit is mainly to comprehensively and carefully check and proofread the specific contents of the tender documents, which should clearly and clearly state: the quantity, scale, main technology and quality requirements of the project; Project duration, bid bond, performance bond and bidding time limit; Requirements on the qualifications of bidders, bid documents and bid validity period; The way, place and deadline for submitting bid documents; Requirements for bid quotation and maximum price limit; The basis, standard and method of bid evaluation, the principle of calibration and the main factors to determine the major deviation; Main contract terms, etc.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) audit rationality

It needs to be carefully analyzed according to the specific conditions of the bidding project. When reviewing the bidding documents, we should first consider the necessity of special terms from the perspective of the purchaser, and then put ourselves in the supplier's shoes, taking into account the rationality of technical content, so as to improve the success rate of bidding. Therefore, the tender documents must pay attention to the details, technical specifications and other related requirements, and cannot be decided hastily. For the technical specifications and requirements provided by the purchaser, it is necessary to check the rationality of the relevant contents, and it is not possible to simply copy and paste the procurement requirements into the document. For example, some technical materials exchanged in the early stage may include advertising descriptions and even models of equipment. If it is directly put into the purchase demand, it will be exclusive and lead to the failure of the purchase. For another example, some information projects need to provide original services during the project implementation and operation, so it is necessary to judge whether the original services are needed in these two stages. If it is not needed from the actual demand or at a certain stage, then this demand may lead to exclusivity or unnecessary cost.
