Kerala State Rural Roads Development Agency Tender

The required prior work experience for the bidder is not explicitly stated in terms of years, but it is mentioned that the bidder's experience in similar work will be assessed. The bidder is required to provide information on their experience in similar work, including the value of similar works completed. The value of similar works completed is considered in the calculation of the Assessed Available Bid Capacity. The bidder must have satisfactorily completed, as prime Contractor, at least one similar work equal in value to one-third (or one-fourth in case of Naxal / LWE affected districts) of the estimated cost of work (excluding maintenance cost for five years) for which the bid is invited. The specific percentages and values mentioned are: - one-third (1/3) of the estimated cost of work for similar works completed - one-fourth (1/4) of the estimated cost of work for similar works completed in Naxal/LWE affected districts - 120% of the value of road work completed under Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana within the originally stipulated period - 50% replacement for 60% and 75% in Naxal/Left Wing Extremist Affected Districts. The bidder needs to provide a certificate from a Chartered Accountant for the total annual volume of civil engineering construction work executed and payments received in the last five years preceding the year in which bids are invited. The bidder should also provide an experience certificate from their previous clients, which includes details of the work executed. The bidder's available bid capacity for construction work should be equal to or more than the total bid value excluding maintenance, and is calculated as: Assessed Available Bid Capacity = (A*N*M - B), where A is the maximum value of civil engineering works executed in any one year, N is the number of years prescribed for completion, M is the multiplier, and B is the value of existing commitments and on-going works. The bidder should have access to lines of credit and availability of other financial resources/facilities (10 percent of the contract value) certified by a banker.
