B. Evaluation of Bids
1. Determining the Successful Bid
According to the methodology defined in the Public Procurement Proclamation and Directive the
Public Body shall select the successful Bid by applying the following method:
A. The Bid that is found to be substantially responsive to the professional, technical, and
financial qualification requirements, technically compliant in relation to the technical
specifications, and with the lowest price.
B. The Bid that is found to be substantially responsive to the professional, technical, and
financial qualification requirements, technically compliant in relation to the technical
specifications, and with the lowest evaluated bid The lowest evaluated Bid shall be the bid
offering better economic advantage ascertained on the basis of factors affecting the
economic value of the bid.
A. The Bid with the Lowest Price
1.1 The bids shall be examined to confirm that all documentary evidence establishing the
Bidders' qualifications requested in ITB Clause 23 have been provided.
1.2 After confirming the bids comprise all mandatory documentary evidence establishing the
Bidder's qualification the Public Body will rule on the legal, technical, professional, and
financial admissibility of each bid, classifying it as compliant or non-compliant with
qualification requirements set forth in the Bidding Document.
1.3 The Public Body will then analyze the bids' technical conformity in relation to the technical
specifications, classifying them technically compliant or non-compliant.
1.4 The Public Body shall continue evaluation of Bids that have been determined to be
substantially responsive with rectification of nonconformities and omissions in bids, if any.
1.5 The Public Body shall examine all Bids to ascertain whether there are any arithmetic errors
in computation and summation. The Public Body shall notify Bidders on adjusted
calculation errors and request bidders to confirm that they accept the correction of the
calculation error within the time limit of three days from the receiving of the notification.
1.6 The Public Body shall award of the contract the Bidder whose Bid has been determined to
be substantially responsive to the Bidding Documents and with the lowest price.
B. Determining the Lowest Evaluated Bid Offering the Best Economic Advantage
2. Evaluation of the Technical Proposal
2.1 Provided all mandatory legal, professional, technical, and financial requirements have been
met all technically compliant Bids shall be evaluated and scored using the two-stage bid
evaluation and scoring method. In accordance with ITB Clause 38.3(f), the Public Body's
evaluation of the Bid will take into account, in addition to the bid price, the following
technical evaluation criteria in order of their importance and their proportional weight in
the total system of evaluation, as specified below:
(a). The technical evaluation criteria and their weighting points that indicate their level of
importance are determined, as follows:
Proportional
Priority Name of criteria
points in %
Adequacy of Technical Proposal in responding to the
Schedule of Requirements:
(a) Technical capacity to mobilize equipment and
15%
personnel
1
(b) Technical approach and methodology 8%
(c) Work plan and scheduling 6%
(d) Organization and staffing 7%
Total points for criterion (1): 35%
Specific experience of the Bidder relevant to the 10
2
Schedule of Requirements
Qualifications and competence of the key professional
staff engaged in the works:
(a) Project engineer 10%
(b)Site engineer 10%
(c)Office engineer 5%
(d) forman 5%
3 Total points for criterion (3): 30
The number of points to be assigned to each of the above positions
or disciplines shall be determined considering the following three
sub-criteria and relevant percentage weights:
(a) General qualifications 20-30% 20%
(b) Adequacy for the assignment 50-60% 50%
(c) Experience in region and language 10-20% 10%
Total weight: 100% 80%
4
Total points for criterion (4): 20%
Σ Total Points for the Four Criteria (1+2+3+4) 100
(b). The Public Body will evaluate any technical evaluation criterion using the following
scoring scale:
SCORING DESCRIPTION
Exceeds the requirements of the criteria significantly and in beneficial ways/very
10 Excellent
desirable
9 Very Good Exceeds the requirements of the criteria in ways which are beneficial to our needs
7-8 Good Fully meets the requirement of the criteria
2.2 Individual weighted scores for all technical evaluation criteria shall be weighted according
to the set proportional weighting factors. The weighted result shall be calculated by
multiplying the score by the proportional weighting point of the individual criterion.
2.3 Bidders getting score less than percent in the technical evaluation shall be rejected.
3. Evaluation and Comparison of Bid Price
3.1 In the financial evaluation, the highest point shall be given to the lowest priced Bid, and
conversely, the lowest point shall be given to the highest priced Bid; among technically
qualified Bids. The points given to other Bidders shall be determined depending on their
price offers.
3.2 From the total merit points to be given for proposals submitted by Bidders in a bid for
procurement of Works, the share of Technical Proposal shall be percent and the remaining
percent shall be the share of the Bid Price.
3.3 The formula for determining the financial score is the following:
FS =
( CFP
LFP
) 100
Where:
FS = The Bid Price Score;
LFP = The lowest Bid Price;
CFP = The Bid Price under consideration
3.4 The Public Body shall then add the technical score to the Bid Price score to determine the
aggregated (total) Bid score and final ranking of Bids by applying the following method:
(a) For each Technical Proposal its technical evaluation score shall be normalized
according to the highest evaluated technical score that will get 100 points according
to which other scores of technical criteria shall be proportionally ranked.
Normalization is the transformation that is applied equally to every element in the
group of data so that the group has a specific statistical characteristic.
(b) The Public Body shall apply the following formula for the normalization of values of
the technical evaluation results:
TSN =
( )
CTP
HTP
100
Where:
TSN = Normalized Bid Technical Proposal Score;
CTP = The technical evaluation score for the Bid under consideration
HTP = The highest evaluated Technical Proposal score
3.5 The Public Body shall award the contract to the Bid that has the highest point in the total
sum of results of the technical and Bid Price evaluation.
3.6 Where two Bidders get equal merit points in the evaluation, preference shall be given to
local Bidders.
3.7 The Public Body may require Bidders scoring equal merit points in the evaluation to
submit further Proposals on certain aspects of the Bidding Document with a view to
identifying the successful Bidder.
3.8 Where by reason of the Bidders scoring equal merit points not submitting final proposals
they are invited to submit, or by reason of the evaluation result of the final proposals
submitted by the Bidders being still equal the successful Bidder can not be singled out, the
successful Bidder shall be determined by casting lot in the presence, as far as possible, of
the Bidders concerned.
4. Domestic Preference
If the ITB Clause 34 so specifies, the Public Body will grant a margin of preference to local
construction companies for the purpose of bid comparison, in accordance with the procedures
outlined in subsequent paragraphs Responsive Bids shall be classified into the following groups:
(a) Group A: Bids offered by local construction companies and joint ventures meeting
the criteria of ITB Sub-Clause 34.3; and
(b) Group B: all other Bids.
For the purpose of further evaluation and comparison of Bids only, an amount equal to 7.5%
percent of the evaluated Bid prices determined in accordance with ITB Sub-Clause 34.3 shall be
added to all Bids classified in Group B.
5. Evaluation of Multiple Contracts
Since in accordance with ITB Sub-Clause 38.5 the Public Body be allowed to award one or
multiple lots to more than one Bidder, the following methodology shall be used for award of
multiple contracts:
To determine the lowest-evaluated lot combinations, the Public Body shall:
evaluate only lots or contracts that include at least the percentages of items per lot and
quantity per item as specified in ITB 13.12;
take into account:
(i) the lowest-evaluated bid for each lot that meets the requirement of evaluation
criteria;
(i) the price reduction per lot and the methodology for their application as
offered by the Bidder in its bid; and
(ii) the contract-award sequence that provides the optimum economic
combination, taking into account any limitations due to constraints in supply
or execution capacity.
6. Completion Time
