Tendering Process: Update

The construction vendors are identified through an exhaustive tendering process managed by Feedback Foundation. The tendering process is administered by the local governments and it is supported by the project team. It is important for the project team to understand the documents that need to be submitted along with the approvals required so that the process is completed within project’s timeline.

Feedback Foundation interfaced with the BMC engineering team to obtain more details on the tendering process and to review the tender documents that had already been prepared. They also collaborated with Anagram Architects on incorporating the facility design changes suggested by the engineering team. These efforts help to ensure that the process is completed in a timely manner with all requisite approvals in place.

Anagram Architects prepared site-specific drawings, along with the Bill of Quantities (BoQs), according to the BMC-mandated packages and submitted this for approval to the municipal corporation.

CTRAN facilitated the initial phase of the tendering process by collecting information on the process and packaging of sites with the help of the BMC City Engineer, and getting feedback on the design drawings, estimates, and BoQs. They have also been in constant contact with the Engineering team for progress updates.

The tender documents for all sites will be submitted in the coming weeks and months.
