ADDITIONAL CLARIIFICATION TO BIDDER’S QUERIES

12 Sept 2013

Reference to the above ITB, UNOPS has received the below queries from bidders and we would like to share the clarifications as below:

Query 1

In case we have a demo unit of the item to submit, can we submit the demo unit with the document? It would be easier for your team to do evaluation. Then the demo unit must give return back to the bidder after evaluation finish.

Clarification: UNOPS would like to suggest bidders just to submit the product catalogues attached with the bidding document for evaluation. UNOPS will ask the winning bidder to submit the sample unit after completion of evaluation.

Query 2

Delivery, As UNOPS mention in the clarification note that microscope will be install in Phnom Penh and distribute to different places in , which we don’t know if we still responsible for the delivery to different places?

Clarification: Delivery terms are CPT-Sihanouk Ville Sea Port or CPT – International Airport, Phnom Penh, Cambodia (one of those terms to be decided by UNOPS during the evaluation). In both the delivery terms, UNOPS will be responsible to transport the goods from seaport or airport as the case may be to Phnom Penh and store them in a warehouse where Supplier would be asked to complete the installation and a third party internationally recognized inspection agency to conduct the sampling and testing. After the goods are passed by the inspection agency, UNOPS will make the arrangements for further transportation and distribution in Cambodia. Therefore, bidders are not required to deliver the microscopes to difference places in Cambodia.

Query 3:

Qualification, is it to submit after if we are selected? We want to make sure as in Page 3, document to be enclosed along with the bid no mention post qualification document.

Clarification: In the clause # 38 “Post Qualification Assessment” requirements are mentioned in the bidding document. Bidder is required to submit other relevant documents to prove that bidder have sufficient financial and technical capacity to perform the work under this contract.

Query 4:

Bid Security, 2% of the total amount: there are 2 options to quote, please confirm 2% of the big amount can be option 1 or option 2 not total amount of option 1 and option 2.

Clarification: In case of bidder is submitting 2 options of 2 different brands, bidder should submit 2% amount for bid security of the highest quoted price out of 2 options. There is no need to submit 2% bid security for each option.

Query 5.

In Price schedule mentioned CIF Sihanouk Ville and CIP Phnom Penh airport. CIF Sihanouk Ville, we will need to include only freight and insurance, and UNOPS will pay for clearance and transport from Sihanouk Ville to Phnom Penh. CIP Phnom Penh airport mean we will pay freight, insurance and clearance but transport cost from airport to warehouse is responsible by UNOPS. By this assumption, the price of CIP airport is higher than CIF seaport. Please confirm if the above assumption is correct.

Clarification: Please note that UNOPS decided to change the Incoterms CIF and CIP to “CPT” (Please refer to Amendment 3 to ITB).

Bidders are required to submit bid in the two options:

1st Option: CPT at Sihanouk Ville Port.

2nd Option: CPT at Sihanouk Ville Port.

With CPT Incoterms, bidder is not required to pay for insurance of the goods during transit which would be arranged by UNOPS under its global cargo insurance policy. For more details of obligations of Buyer and Seller under Incoterms, bidders are advised to refer Incoterms 2010.
