Work Quantity Unit Rate Contracts. Payments are based on unit price for each measurable item or unit of work (e.g. per linear, cubic meter, square meter, per piece or unit, etc.). SEC uses these types of contracts when specific items of work can be clearly defined but the quantity for each item of work cannot be ascertained or guaranteed. Bidders will be supplied with estimated quantities for the required work items in order for them to submit competitive prices, and to enable SEC to determine the rankings. Time Unit Rate Contracts. Payments are based on labor and equipment rates (e.g. hourly, daily, weekly or monthly rate per category of labor or type of equipment). SEC uses these types of contracts when specific items of work cannot be defined (except in general terms) and both the quantity and duration of work cannot be ascertained. 2. Cost Reimbursable Contracts. Under this type of contract, the cost of the work is not fixed. SEC reimburses contractor for the actual cost incurred plus the agreed fee or compensation. SEC does not normally prefer this type of contract. SEC uses these types of contracts only when the scope of work cannot be clearly defined; and early completion of certain portions of the work is especially important, e.g. to meet commitments or because of a high rate of return from use of a facility or obtaining a service. 2.1 Reimbursable and Non-reimbursable Costs. When SEC uses this type of contract, SEC identifies the reimbursable and non-reimbursable costs, which normally include the following:
Reimbursable Costs such as salaries and wages of contractor personnel; payroll taxes and fringe benefits; cost of materials, supplies and equipment incorporated into the work; premiums for all bonds and insurance; transportation charges; rental charges and maintenance charges for equipment to be used in performing the work; permit fees; temporary facilities; and losses and expenses not compensated by insurance, which result from causes other than the fault of the contractor. Non-reimbursable Costs such as overhead expenses; capital expenses including interests on contractors capital and costs due to negligence of contractor or subcontractor or anyone directly employed by the contractor. 2.2 Types of Cost Reimbursable Contracts. SEC uses the following two (2) types of Cost Reimbursable Contracts: 2.2.1 2.2.2 Cost Plus Fixed Fee. Under this type, SEC reimburses the contractor the actual and necessary cost of the work plus a fixed amount of fee that normally represents the profit of the contractor. Cost Plus Percentage Fee. Under this type, SEC reimburses the contractor the actual and necessary cost of the work plus a certain fee that is based on a fixed percentage of total actual cost of the work.

Negotiated Method (Single Source). It is SEC policy not to negotiate contracts with any one contractor except in situations where consideration of all relevant factors makes negotiation as the only logical method to procure the contract and therefore SEC uses this method of procurement only in exceptional circumstances and when adequately justified by the absence of current market forces and shall be approved by the authorized Contract Signatory.

A bidder must have adequate and qualified manpower that is ready to be mobilized within the required period. Proposed Equipment. A bidder must have adequate equipment that is ready to be mobilized within the required period. Performance on SEC Contracts. A bidder must not have any "Unsatisfactory" Performance Rating on any of its recent contracts (not to exceed one year) with SEC. 1.2 Commercial and Financial Considerations 1.2.1 1.2.2 1.2.3 1.2.4 1.2.5 1.2.6 Contractors Commercial Registration Certificate (CRC). A bidder must possess a valid Commercial Registration that covers the work to be contracted. Contractor Classification Certificate (CCC). A bidder's CCC, if required, must be valid, covering the work to be contracted, and of a Classification Grade that meets the requirement of the work to be contracted. Zakah and GOSI Certificates.

2. Debriefing Contractors 2.1 It is SECs policy to be transparent as to the evaluation of contractors submittals, therefore upon concerned contractors written request; SEC clarifies the basis for their disqualifications. Contractors are encouraged to request for Debriefings in order to know their deficiencies and be able to correct them in similar future projects. SEC provides such clarifications in a meeting referred to as "Debriefing". SEC conducts Debriefings before the job explanation for the particular contract/project has been done. During Debriefings with any contractor, it is the policy of SEC not to discuss or disclose to the contractor the submittals of other contractors.

Tips for Preparing Good PQ Documents In order to allow SEC evaluators to be able to make a proper and accurate assessment of contractors capabilities, contractors are encouraged to fill out the PQ forms completely; comply with all written instructions; submit all documents required; provide complete and accurate information; describe in detail their plans to perform the work and means of providing the required resources; and provide any necessary additional information that will help assess their capabilities; and to submit a well organized package. It is of utmost importance for contractors to be able to show their experiences on similar jobs. [When in doubt, always ask for clarifications; do not assume].

Schedule "A" - General Terms and Conditions, and, if any, special terms and conditions to suit a particular contract. Schedule "B" - Scope of Work and Technical Provisions, including Technical Specifications and drawings. Schedule "C" - Payment provisions including special terms and conditions (for compensation, if any), and pricing attachments. Ancillary documents like Performance Guarantee and Warranty Certificates format.
Confidentiality 2.1 SEC Proprietary Information. SEC Bid packages and contracting standard forms contain provisions for ensuring the confidentiality of proprietary information or technology provided by or developed by SEC. Bidders are requested not to disclose any proprietary information to any third party without SECs prior written consent. When SEC requires a Confidentiality Agreement because the Bid Package discloses or reveals SEC's proprietary information or technology, it is to be executed by the bidder before it is issued the Bid Package. For Cost Reimbursable Contracts, Confidentiality Agreements are not executed until the contracts are awarded. In this case SEC informs the bidders during the bidding stage that the successful bidder shall be required to sign a Confidentiality Agreement. Bidders/Contractor Submittals. Other than the total bid prices that are announced during the opening of bids, SEC keeps all contractor submittals confidential, including those documents that are submitted during the prequalification process or screening inquiry described in Sections 10.
2.2
3.
Conflict of Interest A Contractor may not have a conflict of interest in competing for the contract as provided for in the Instructions to Bidders for Commercial Proposal and shall not have a conflict of interest in executing the contract. A contractor may be considered to have a conflict of interest in the execution of the contract with one or more parties, if: 3.1 Bidder has an interest in another bidder in the same bid. If during the submission and opening of bids it appears that the Bidder own or is an owner of another bidder in this bid, SEC shall have the right to reject such bids (totally or partially). Bidder has received any information that directly or indirectly affects bids from any bidders in this bid. Bidder is represented by the same legal representative as other bidders for purposes of this bid. Bidder has a direct relationship with other bidders, directly or through common third parties, that puts them in a position to have access to information about or influence on the bid of another Bidder, or influence the decisions of COMPANY regarding this bidding process. Bidder participates in more than one bid as a principal bidder in this bidding process. SEC shall have the right to totally or partially reject all Bids in which such Bidder is involved. Exception shall be the inclusion of the same subcontractor in more than one bid, and a Bidder may submit a subcontract bid or quote prices on materials or equipment to other Bidders and also submit a bid as principal bidder for the contract either by itself, or as a partner in a joint venture or consortium. Bidder participated as a consultant in the preparation of the design or technical specifications of this bid, or the Bidder is associated or affiliated with the firm or organization that participated in the preparation of the design or technical specifications of this bid. Any Contractor's director, officer, agent, employee, appointed representative or independent consultant has a conflict of interest in the bidding and award of a subcontract for a portion of the work, or a purchase order for supply of material or equipment for the contract. Where any Contractor's director, officer, agent, employee, appointed representative or independent consultant has interest (personal, professional, financial or otherwise), directly or indirectly, in a subcontractor being considered for a subcontract or purchase order for a portion of the work under the contract. In such a case, the Contractor shall present relevant evidence to SEC demonstrating that no conflict of interest has occurred in bid solicitation and award of the subcontract or purchase order, and that competition was fair and transparent.

Alternative Bids that are not called are rejected. SEC rejects any "Alternative Bid" that is not called for in the Bid Form or Instructions to Bidders. Lowest Price shall prevail. It is the policy of SEC to have the lowest price prevail whenever there are discrepancies in the bid prices of any bidder. Bid Prices shall not be changed after Bid Opening. SEC does not allow, under any circumstance, a bidder to change its bid price after the opening of bids.
Debriefing Contractors. SEC recognizes the fact that bidders incur expenses in preparing their bids and normally, the greater the magnitude of the project, the greater the expense. Therefore, as in the prequalification process, it is also SECs policy to be transparent as to the evaluation of contractors bids by providing clarifications to bidders why their bids are not accepted. SEC procedures for debriefing unsuccessful bidders are the same as described in Paragraph 2 of Section 10. Tips for Preparing Responsive Bids. In order to be able to submit a responsive bid, contractors are encouraged to: strictly comply with the Instructions to Bidders; bid only for what is required; submit all documents required together with bids; fill out the bid forms completely [indicate not applicable as the case may be]; not submit conditions, exceptions or deviations; not submit alternate bids when it is not solicited; not submit unnecessary and unsolicited documents; and to not revise the forms received from SEC. When in doubt, contractors are advised to always seek clarifications and not make assumptions. Also in order that they may be able to prepare competitive bids, it is always helpful for contractors to know their competitors and not to underestimating them.

In general, SEC applies the following guidelines on the use of Change Order Requests: 2.1 SEC uses COAs only in accordance with the terms of the contract. If the contract does not have a CO provision, SEC does not use COAs. 2.2 SEC does not use COAs for changes to the Final Acceptance Date or Critical Milestone Dates of a contract due to Force Majeure events or delays caused by SEC.

3.
Modification or Cancellation of Change Order Agreements. Normally, SEC contracts specifies that when circumstances require that a COR be changed or modified, SEC cancels the COA and issues a new one bearing the same number of the canceled COA. Payment for Change Order Request. SECs applicable contracts specify the following] in paying COA. 4.1 SEC pays contractors only after completion of the COA work. However, for COA work that continues over a long period, SEC may allow progress payments if the corresponding contract provides for such progress payments. 4.2 SEC uses the Settlement for Contract Change Order (SCCO), Form No. SEC 15037, that serves as the authorization to pay the contractor for the completed COA work, except Cost Reimbursable Contracts where SCCO is not required. 4.3 SEC may settle more than one COA under a single SCCO form. However, the value of each COA is to be clearly indicated. 4.4 For COAs that allow progress payments, a separate SCCO form for each progress payment is not required.
