Foreword

To streamline the procurement process in Sri Lanka the Government has decided to

develop a series of Standard Bidding Documents for procurement of Goods and Works.

The Cabinet of Ministers has entrusted this task to NPA.. The Procurement Guidelines

(2006) requires that all PE shall use the appropriate SBDs approved by NPA.

Accordingly, as a joint effort ofNPA/ICTAD the SBDs published previously by ICTAD

were revised for conformity with the Guidelines.

This Bidding Docwnent for Procurement of Works shall be used for National

Competitive Bidding (NCB) within the limits specified in the SBD, for the contracts that

'are financed by Government of Sri Lanka. The publication is drafted to suit for foreign

funded contracts and is advised to use in such contracts with the concurrence of the

funding agencies.

These Bidding Documents for Procurement of Works, assumes that no prequalification

has taken place before bidding. However, for the domestic contractors leTAD

registration is a pre-reqnisite to eligible for contract award and for all contractors a

suitable post qualification should be carried out.

I take this opportunity to thank the following TASK force members appointed by NPA in

assisting to complete this endeavor:

Mr. J K Lankathilake ( DG - leTAD)

Ms. KJayathilake (Snr. Manager-NPA)

Ms. S M C S Samarakoon (Chief Engineer - Dept of Buildings)

Mr. Ravindra Ferdinando (GM SEC)

PREFACE to THE FIRST EDITION

The growing need to standardize procurement documents was"expressed from several sectors of the industry.It simplifies the prooess, and an attempt has been made to achieve these objectives with simplicity but withprecision. To achieve these objectives ICIAD commenced to develop new standard documents with theassistance of the lOA of the World Bank.

This task was carried out by Mr. Eddie de Zylva and Mr. Jayantha de Mel under the guidance of a SteeringCommittee and Sub Committee appointed for the review of ICTAD Publications.

. The first of the series of such documents is the Standard Bidding Document for Procurenlent of Works, whichwas largely based on the World Bank Standard Bidding Document for Smaller Contracts..This supersedes theleTADo Conditions of Contract for Works of Building &Civil Engineering (SCA/1) and is suitable for use both byInt~rnational Competitive Bidding (ICS) and by National Competitive Bidding (NCB) procedures. This documentmay also be used for works of higher values provided that the works are not of a complex nature. Substantiveinstructions have been given in order to ensure that contracts are carried out.in accordance with policies andprocedures laid down by the Government of Sri Lanka without qeviating from the general requirements of theinternational funding institutions. A notable feature is that the text is very precise and leaves very little room forambiguity. The contents are comprehensive and covers the procurement process from the invitation to bid uptothe execution &completion of the works.

..The steering committee I sub committee consisted of representatives of the following Professional and Policymaking organizations:

1. The Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka2. Sri LanRa Institute of Architects3. Society of Structural Engineers, Sri Lanka4. The Association of Consulting Engineers, Sri Lanka5. Institute of Quantity Surveyors, Sri Lanka6. Institute of Town Planners, Sri Lanka7. Institute of ProJect Managers, Sri Lanka8. National Construction Contractors Association of Sri Lanka9. Ministry of Urban Development, Construction and Public Utilities10. Ministry of Finance and Planning11. Institute for Construction Training and Development (ICTAD)

I wish to acknowledge with grateful thanks the services of Mr. Eddie de Zylva and Mr. Jayantha de Mel and allthe members of the steering committee and the sub committee. Meanwhile my special thanks are also due toMr. G Somapala de Silva, 0 Rear Admiral K R L Perera, Mr. G J P Gunawardane, Praf. Lal Balasuriya,Mr. Y G Amaradasa, Mr. Patric Jayawardane, Eng. W MSC Piyadasa, Mr. H D Chandrasena,Mr. S A Karunaratne, Eng. Hemal A Pairis, Dr. T M Pallewatta, Dr. Gamini Kodikara, Mr. D Meemeduma,Mr. J K Lankathilake, Mr. K P W Rajasiri, Mrs. Vajira Ranasinghe and Mr. C Amarakoon who contributed innumerous ways in the publication of this document I also wish to appreciate the secretarial assistancerendered by Miss. Medhani IlIangasinghe.

I earnestly hope that the needs of a large cross section of the players in the Industry will be met by theadoption of this document and would also help to regularize the procurement system.

SPECIFICATIONS

77

For drafting specifications the Employers are advised to use the following standard

specifications published by leTAD.

TJle~e notes are intended o'flly as informatioDfor the-Employer or theperson drafting the bidding documents. The)} should not be includedin the final bidding documents.

A set of precise and clear specifications is a pr~-requisite for bidders to respond realistically

and competitively to the requirements' of the Employer without qualifying or conditioning

their bids. The specifications must be drafted to permit the widest possible competition and, at

the same time, present a clear statement of the required standards of workmanship, materials,

and performance of the goods and services to be procured. Only if this is done will the

objectives of economy, efficiency, and fairness in procurement be realized, responsiveness of

bids be ensured, and the subsequent task of bid evaluation facilitated. The specifications

should require that all goods and materials to be incorporated in the works be new, unused, of

the most recent or current models, and incorporate all recent improvements in design and

materials unless provided otherwise in the Contract.
