(NAR) VOL. 2 NO. 1/JANUARY-MARCH 1991

[ DPWH DEPARTMENT ORDER NO. 8, January 10, 1991 ]

ADDITIONAL DOCUMENT REQUIREMENT IN THE PREQUALIFICATION OF CONTRACTORS



In line with the concept of public bidding that bidders shall bid on equal footing, it is directed that the Prequalification, Bids and Awards Committee (PBAC) shall require contractor applicants, as an additional document for prequalification, a sworn statement that he has no relative, either by consanguinity or affinity, within the fourth civil degree in the Department of Public Works and Highways who has something to do with prequalification, processing/approval of contract and/or project implementation, and that no official/employee of the Department has, either direct or indirect, financial or pecuniary interest in his construction firm.

This additional requirement shall be discussed during the pre-bid conference as among the documents to be contained in the first envelope mentioned in Clause IB 10.2(2) of the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of P.D. No. 1594, and that non-compliance by any contractor hereof shall be a ground for rejection of his bid. In this connection, non-observance by PBAC members hereof shall be a ground for disciplinary action under existing rules and regulations.  Contractors who have submitted such sworn statement which later on turns out to contain misrepresentations, shall be meted the corresponding sanction under the provisions of the IRR of P.D. No. 1594.

This Order shall take effect immediately.

Adopted: 10 Jan. 1991
