CHAPTER III. TENDERING PROCEEDINGS

(c) The termination of the tendering proceedings without the entry into force of a procurement contract

(a) It is feasible to formulate detailed specifications and tendering proceedings would be more appropriate taking into account the nature of the services to be procured or

The former forms the basis for the conduct of procurement proceedings and gives rise to enforceable rights and obligations, both to procuring entities and suppliers.

Article 47 ter. Conduct of electronic reverse auctions during the auction itself

(6) As regards paragraph 3, and to guard against abuse, any decision to suspend an auction and the reasons therefor should be included in the record of the procurement proceedings.

In tendering procedures, articles 33 (2) and (3) also provide for the opening of tenders in the presence of participants, and the provision of information to suppliers on the identity and price of other tenders, to enable suppliers to monitor the application of the rules, but only once the tendering phase is complete.

How did the tendering happen?

The requirement for the record of the procurement proceedings to include all decisions taken in the proceedings should include details of how any decision to close the auction was arrived at.

Consequently, as tendering is the general procurement method for goods and construction, the provisions enable an electronic reverse auction procedure that follows the pattern of the standard tendering method, adapted to provide for an electronic reverse auction.

Article 47. Restricted tendering

(1) Except as otherwise provided by this chapter, a procuring entity engaging in procurement of goods or construction shall do so by means of tendering proceedings.

(5) The procuring entity shall allow a period of time to elapse between the issuance of the invitation to participate in the electronic reverse auction and the opening of the auction sufficient so as to ensure sufficient participation in the auction.

As offers are changed during an electronic reverse auction, this provision is inconsistent with the conduct of an auction.

Disclosure of information during the auction

Article 46. Two stage tendering

(2) In the procurement of goods and construction, a procuring entity may use a method of procurement other than tendering proceedings only pursuant to article 19, 20, 21 or 22.

The existing regulations usually regulate the timing of the auction, bidding requirements and the extent of disclosure of information during the bidding process.

19. One company appeared to have a virtual monopoly for air contract services for peace keeping operations owing to unfair bidding procedures and inadequate compliance with United Nations Financial Regulations and Rules.

Immediately after abortion of an auction, the reasons for the abortion shall be communicated at the Internet address fixed in the auction rules to those bidders who were last in participating in the auction (para.

Complaints procedure

(d) When tendering proceedings have been engaged in but no tenders were submitted or all tenders were rejected by the procuring entity pursuant to article 12, 15 or 34 (3), and when, in the judgement of the procuring entity, engaging in new tendering proceedings would be unlikely to result in a procurement contract.

Two stage tendering, like an auction, involves successive tendering phases, but the Model Law does not give any guidance on how article 33 applies to two stage tendering.

The conduct of the auction itself would under the draft text below be governed by the principles and objectives of the rules governing tendering.

(v) The features of the tender that are to be presented at the auction

Transparency and competitiveness in the bidding process are being pursued.
