A bidder is asking the Department of National Defense and the Government Procurement Policy Board to look into the failed bidding of November 11, 2013 and re-bidding of the P5.3 billion contract to buy new aircraft for the Philippine Air Force.
In a complaint-letter, Alenia Aermachii said it was not called by the bidding and awards committee to attend the pre-bidding conference last Dec. 2.
The firm said the supplemental bid dated December 6 for a December 16 bidding was not posted on the Philippine Government Procurement System nor in the official website of the DND, as required by Bidding Rules and Procedures.
“Moreover, no communication about said issuance has been sent to Alenia,” the company said in a statement. “Potentially interested bidders have been denied the right to submit a comprehensive proposal due to the lack of information on the December 2 pre-bid conference and the supplemental bid bulletin for a December 16 bidding.”
