1. Back Ground

Faisalabad Development Authority has developed a project by

name of FDA City Housing Scheme on Sargodha Road, near motorway.
For its Electrification FDA applied to FESCO (P&D) Directorate back
on June 2010. Now after vetting FESCO has given an administrative
approval in its 166th/54th meeting held on 08-08-2017 in committee
room of Headquarters FESCO Faisalabad for external electrification of
entire project which contains 25 Nos. independent overhead and
underground 11KV feeders, 2 Nos. 132 KV Grid Stations along with
Transmission lines. Now for execution of project the component of
installation of 11KV distribution network which is partially overhead
and partially underground, has to be installed by sponsor (i.e. FDA) by
guidelines of FESCO 163rd/53th BOD held on 24-02-17. According to
this guideline the sponsor is bound to execute work only through
FESCO / NTDC / WAPDA approved contractors only after
procurement of material through FESCO / NTDC / WAPDA approved
manufacturers. This will ensure the quality of work strictly in

 PART B: PRE-QUALIFICATION

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Advantages of Prequalification

Pre-qualification is an assessment made by the Employer, of the appropriate level of

experience and capacity of firms (especially technical and financial) expressing
interest in consultancy services of a particular contract, before inviting them to bid.

Pre-qualification of consultants is very useful for the Employer to carry out selection
of firms for award of consultancy services. The basic aim of the pre-qualification is
intended to eliminate, early in procurement proceedings, consultants that are not
suitably qualified to perform the contract. Also sometimes consultants are reluctant to
participate in procurement proceedings for high value contracts, if the competitive
field is too large and where they run the risk of having to compete with unrealistic
tenders submitted by unqualified or disreputable consultants. Furthermore, the
Prequalification is the basic tool to:

(i) Encourage realistic bids by the Bidders because they know that they are
competing against qualified bidders who have cleared the minimum competence
criteria;
(ii) Assess the interest of the prospective bidders in the bidding process;
(iii) Make any adjustments/modifications in the documents if a point is available
showing lack of interest by the prospective bidders applying for pre-
qualification;
(iv) Reduce the effort and so the time in evaluation of bids from un-qualified
consultants;
(v) Help the bidders to evaluate and take stock of their capability.
(vi) Reduce the problems associated with low priced bids from bidders of doubtful
capability.
(vii) Help the bidders who are insufficiently qualified to avoid the expense of
bidding.

1.2 Recapitulation

To recapitulate the afore-given, the pre-qualification specifically means selection of

competent consultants prior to issuance of the invitations to bid. It is required for
large or complex works, in certain cases for custom designed equipment and
specialized services. Pre-qualification is also helpful for providing a chance for
selection of competent consultants under “Slice and Package” system of tendering.
Pre-qualification is also useful in saving the employers from numerous un-necessary
problems.

Sr. No. Name of Work

1 RESIDENT SUPERVISION OF WORK “EXTERNAL

4.0 EVALUATION OF APPLICATIONS
4.1 Evaluation of the Experience

4.1.1 As a general guide it is proposed that the experience should be considered under two
heads i.e. specific experience and general experience. Weightage for specific
experience should be 70% which is similar in magnitude and complexity, even two
previous projects are considered enough to inspire confidence in the firm’s capability.
However, for the purpose of ranking of the firms for inclusion in the shortlist, a
maximum of 5 projects should fetch full marks for the firm under specific experience.
The experience for the first project would be nearly as much as the threshold score
and the remaining projects would be awarded points in descending order, e.g.:-

No. of Projects For Max. 5 Projects

1st Project 50 Percent

2nd Project 75 Percent
3rd Project 85 Percent
4th Project 95 Percent -
5th Project 100 Percent -

4.1.2 Similarly the general experience should also be considered after certain limitation in
numbers because after certain number, more projects may not add much to
differentiate between the competitors. Weightage of general experience shall be 30%.
A maximum of 10 projects should be enough number to fetch full hundred percent
points. A sample is proposed as follows:

Maximum Number of Project is

fixed as 10

Number of Proposed
Projects Criteria

Min: 2 25%

3-5 60%

6-7 85%

8-9 95%

10 100%

(20)
4.2 Other Factors

There are some other factors which do have a bearing on the overall proficiency of a
firm in meeting its obligations later during the currency of the contract. For example,
when training of Client’s staff is a requirement on the project, the firms having
previous experience and resources could be better placed to perform that part of the
assignment. Similarly experienced home office professional staff as well as
availability of equipment/software and facilities are useful for timely handling of
critical issues and in time availability of equipment/facilities respectively. These and
such other factors which differentiate between otherwise excellent firms should be
considered as weighted qualifications.

4.3 Evaluation of Quality of Staff

4.3.1 For the sake of assigning weight age to judge capability of the firm on the
basis of expertise of its staff, the following steps may be adopted:-
i) List the type of essential expertise required for the project.
ii) The number of discipline- types included in the list should be the most
important ones and be limited to a maximum of 5.
iii) Assess the relative importance of each expertise viz-a-viz the
requirements of the project.
iv) Assign number of credit points to each expertise/the staff member
nominated for that expertise.

4.3.2 Nominated experts should be evaluated on the basis of the following three
items of qualification as demonstrated in their C.Vs:-

i) Academic Qualification 20-30 Percent

ii) Professional Experience 60-70 Percent
 Specific 80%
 General 20%
iii) Experience of working environment 10 Percent
 Nationally 60%
 Internationally 20%
 Specific Area within the Country 20%
Which is based on:
Specific Province 60%
Regional Language 40%

4.4 Evaluation of applications should preferably be carried out individually by the

committee members on forms jointly developed by the committee and using the pre-
determined weightage award sub-criteria. Sample Forms for evaluation of experience
and staff are placed at Annex-C, Forms C-1 and C-2 for the committee’s reference
and guidance. After finalization of the evaluation, each member should compile the
grading list containing a Summary of points and the Annex-C, Forms C-1 and C-2 a
copy of which be submitted to the Convener of the Committee before a formal
meeting is convened by him.

5.0 FINALIZATION OF SHORT-LIST

5.1 The selection committee should hold a meeting to review the evaluation/grading carried
out by the individual committee members. The basic aim is to review the capabilities of
consultants securing top most positions in the individual grading on each list. Since the
members have evaluated the firms on the basis of an agreed criteria hence it has
considerable advantage of organized discussion and consideration of those firms only
which are not unanimous choice. The discussion will yield a more balanced grading of
firms and finalization of the short-list. Additionally, discussions in this meeting shall
reduce the likelihood of unsupported personal bias.

5.2 The PEC Bye Laws under “General Regulations” require that the status of the Partners,
Directors, Owners for the sake of conflict of interest must also be verified before its
inclusion in the short-list.

For this purpose, the applicants should be required to provide this information in specific
terms and any misrepresentation should be made a ground for rejection. Firms may also
be forewarned that in case of their selection, any such links, if detected during the
currency of their contract, would be reported to the PEC for cancellation of their
registration/license leading to their blacklisting.

5.3 It is reiterated that the short-list of prequalified consultants should not be excessively
long. There is a global consensus that for proper competition and selection of a good firm
the minimum number should not be less than FOUR and the maximum number, for ease
of processing, should not be more than SEVEN. It may be remembered that longer short-
lists tend to be self-defeating as the selected firms may decide that the chances of winning
the assignment does not justify thorough preparation of their proposal
