Study Notes
- Suppliers are selected through various methods for contracts with limited qualified suppliers or exceptional reasons.
- Non-discriminatory supplier selection can be used for small numbers of vehicles or machine tools, emergency situations, pharmaceuticals, highly specialized construction equipment, and as an exception rather than the norm.
- In using Restricted Tender, NNPC Limited prepares a list of potential suppliers, ensuring a broad enough selection for competitive pricing.
- Selective Bidding (Request for Quotations) is used for small contracts, requiring written/electronic quotations from at least three reputable domestic or international suppliers.
- Technical proposals are evaluated and discussed with bidders at the first stage of Two-Stage Bidding.
- After the evaluation of technical proposals, bidders are invited to submit price proposals and revised technical proposals in compliance with the acceptable technical standard.
- Contract is awarded to the bidder with the lowest evaluated price in the second stage of Two-Stage Bidding.
- Sole/Single-Source Procurement (Direct Contracting) allows purchasing goods from a single source due to urgency or specialized nature of goods/services.
- Justification for sole sourcing must be documented and communicated to the appropriate authority.
- Reasons for sole sourcing include availability of goods/services only from a particular supplier or contractor, urgency, standardization, or extension of existing contracts.
