Bid Technical Evaluation Process For Jek 2 Project

A process of bidding is one of the most important tasks that GEN energija will have to carry out before construction of the second unit of nuclear power plant in Krsko (JEK 2). It consists of several phases. The first phase of the bidding process is the preparation of bid invitation specifications (BIS). The following phases are the evaluation of the bids delivered by the bidders, negotiations and the contracting with the successful bidder. Based on IAEA experience, the evaluation process generally takes at least 6 months depending on available human resources and their qualification skills.The paper highlights a bid evaluation process with attention to a bid technical evaluation process for JEK 2. In addition to the technical (including safety) evaluation, the overall Bid evaluation process comprises economic, financial, contractual and other applicable aspects which have to be considered in the decision-making process of implementing the project and the selection of the supplier(s). This process starts with the submission of the bids and ends with the issuance of the final technical evaluation report.A project organisation and process flow chart for the technical evaluation are presented and discussed. They are based on our own Quality Management System for JEK 2 Project considering relevant IAEA documents.
