A request for quotation is a simplified tender procedure for consulting companies and civil society organizations for the award of jobbing orders that do not require the bidder to propose an execution methodology and whose verification for compliance with some technical specifications does not require evaluation by an evaluation sub-committee.
Services that may be subject to quotation shall include:
– Supplies, expendables and sundry materials;
– Furniture;
– Tools and light equipment;
– Computer hardware;
– Lightweight rolling stock;
– Routine maintenance of public buildings and minor structures;
– Manual clearing of roadsides, notably bush clearing, weeding, cleaning of engineering structures and gutters, and waste disposal;
– Treatment of critical points of earth or tarred roads;
– Manufacturing and/or laying of cobblestones under labour-intensive works;
– Quantifiable services including guarding and maintenance of green spaces.
Qualification criteria shall, as appropriate, include supporting documents for after-sales services.
Bidding shall be open to service providers operating in the relevant sector who fulfil the qualification criteria contained in the request for quotation.
Requests for quotation shall be prepared by the Project Owner based on standard documents designed by the public contracts regulatory body.
The consultation notice shall be published under the same conditions as those of open invitations to tender.
Quotations shall be determined on the basis of the technical features and the bill of quantities prescribed by the Project Owner.
The Project Owner shall receive the bids and forward them to the tender’s board for opening, verification of compliance with technical specifications and comparison.
The tenders board shall propose award of the contract to the bidder whose bid fully complies with the administrative, technical and lowest bid requirements.
The Project Owner shall award the contract and publish the results in accordance with the provisions of Article 102 of the code.
The Project Owner shall forward a copy of the contract award decision to the public contracts regulatory body.
