Rural Works Department Tender

The bidder must have satisfactorily completed at least one similar work of value not less than 30% of the amount put to bid, excluding maintenance costs for five years. This means the bidder should have completed similar works with a value of at least 30% of the bid amount. The cutoff date for experience certificates for similar work is the last date of the month before the last date of receipt of tender. For instance, if tenders are received in a particular month, then experience certificates for similar work shall be considered for the period starting from the 1st of the same month five years prior up to the last date of the month before the tender receipt month. In terms of value and percentage, the bidder must have completed similar works with a value of not less than 30% of the amount put to bid. The amount put to bid is used as a reference to calculate the required value of similar works completed, which should be at least 30% of this amount. The bidder's experience and resources, including the value and percentage of similar works completed, are crucial in determining their compliance with the qualifying criteria. The bidder must demonstrate having experience and resources sufficient to meet the aggregate of the qualifying criteria for the individual contracts. For a Joint Venture, the lead partner must meet not less than 50% of the qualification criteria, and each of the remaining partners must meet not less than 25% of the qualifying criteria. The Joint Venture must collectively satisfy the requirements of the criteria, with the relevant figures for each partner added together to arrive at the Joint Venture's total capacity, which must be 100% or more. The available bid capacity of the bidder will be calculated based on the maximum value of civil engineering works executed in any one year during the last five financial years. The bidder's available bid capacity must be more than the total bid value, excluding five-year maintenance costs. The bidder must also have a minimum annual financial turnover of 60% of the amount put to bid, with at least 50% of this turnover being from civil engineering construction works. This indicates that the bidder should have a substantial financial capacity, with a significant portion of their turnover coming from relevant civil engineering construction works. In summary, the required prior work experience for the bidder includes completing similar works with a value of not less than 30% of the amount put to bid, having a minimum annual financial turnover of 60% of the amount put to bid, and demonstrating sufficient experience and resources to meet the qualifying criteria. The value and percentage of similar works completed are directly tied to the amount put to bid, with the bidder required to have completed works worth at least 30% of this amount.
