  2. Summary of Points • Publication of BSR • Allocation of Contract durations • Departmental Execution of Works • Publication of Construction Cost Indices • Tendering Issues • Cost of Tender Documents • Informing the bidders in case of re-tendering • Compensation for cancellation of work award

  3. 1. Publication of BSR Problem Statement : • BSR is published only after few years time. • Un-realistic rates in the BSR • Cost index calculation is not carried out properly and on a project specific basis. Rather some fixed cost index is used all year around.

  4. 1. Publication of BSR Submission: • BSR may be published annually • Instead of three base towns, Phuntsholing, Samdrupjongkhar and Gelephu, the rates be may be published for Phuntsholing, Thimphu, Bumthang and Trashigang. • The work of compilation and publication of BSR may be tendered out to the private sector and accordingly approved by the government.

  5. 2. Allocation of Contract Duration Problem Statement : • Contract durations are fixed on an arbitrary basis • Some contractors are provided with very relaxed Contract durations while the contract durations of some contractors are un-reasonably constricted. • Various factors affecting the implementation are not considered while framing the contract durations

  6. 2. Allocation of Contract durations Submission: The following factors needs to be considered while allocating contract durations : • climatic conditions of project site (conditions during rainy season and winter season) • project location (remoteness, transportation of materials) • Availability of materials (materials availability in third countries) • Complexity of project (installation of heating system etc,) • Mobilization of resources

  7. 3. Department Execution of Works Problem Statement : • Dzongkahgs executing farm road constructions • Field Divisions of Department of Roads are executing rehabilitation works departmentally. • Contractors mostly at Class C and Petty are under-absorbed.

  8. 3. Department Execution of Works Submission: • CAB would like to request the government to contract out all works to the private sector.

  9. 4. Publication of Construction Cost Indices Problem Statement : • Bhutan doesn't have our own cost indices to calculate cost escalation • Some projects use Whole Sale Price Index of India which may not reflect the Bhutanese Scenario.

  10. 4. Publication of Construction Cost Indices Submission : • The government need to mandate one relevant organization to compile construction cost indices on a monthly basis.

  11. 5. Tendering issues Problem Statement: Un-uniform application of rules as listed below: • Bid is not opened in case of single bidder • Bids are rejected for simple reasons • Qualification criteria applied for works up to Nu. 5 million. • Extra criteria are set such as requirement of proprietor to be present at the bid opening.

  12. 5. Tendering issues Problem Statement: Un-uniform application of rules as listed below: • Bid is not opened in case of single bidder • Bids are rejected for simple reasons • Qualification criteria applied for works up to Nu. 5 million. • Extra criteria are set such as requirement of proprietor to be present at the bid opening.

  13. 6. Cost of Tender Documents Problem Statement: • Different agencies are setting varying cost of tender documents • Some procuring agencies are setting un-reasonably high cost of tender documents (as high as Nu. 20,000.00)

  14. 6. Cost of Tender Documents Submission : • To have a uniformity in setting cost of tender documents. • To charge minimal cost covering for petty expenses

  15. 7. Informing Bidders while re-tendering Problem Statement: • Re-tendering is often imitated by procuring agencies • Bidders are not informed after a decision has been made to re-tender.

  16. 7. Informing Bidders while re-tendering Submission : • Bidders may be informed right after a decision has been made by the tender committee to re-tender. • This would enable the bidders to collect their bid security and prepare accordingly for the next biding.

  17. 8. Compensation for Cancellation of work Problem Statement: • Sometimes work award is cancelled due to inability to secure funds for the work • It becomes a case of complete lapses of the client.

  18. 8. Compensation for cancellation of work Submission : • Bidding may be initiated only after securing the funding. • The winning bidder needs to be fairly compensated in case of cancellation of work award.
