Summary: | Borrowing countries are increasingly
inclined to use electronic procurement systems and means for
processing and managing MDB funded activities. This guide is
intended to be used for the application of e-reverse
auctions during the procurement process. Not all procurement
is suitable for e-reverse auction. Some governments consider
e-reverse auction to be a special case of e-bidding while
others see it as part of e-Purchasing. For United Nations
Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), an
e-reverse auction is described as an online, real-time
dynamic auction between a buying organization and a number
of suppliers who compete against each other to win the
contract by submitting successively lower priced bids during
a scheduled time period. Where e-GP systems are intended to
be used for e-reverse auctions for works, goods, or services
under MDB financed procurement, the MDB administering
division or resident office administering the project will,
consistent with any approved delegations, evaluate the
e-reverse auction features, standards, and operations to
ensure it satisfies the conditions that follow in this
guide. This guideline is divided into the following eleven
sections: 1) system preparation; 2) bidding specifications;
3) advertising; 4) operation; 5) correspondence, amendments,
and clarification; 6) access; 7) bid securities; 8) bid
evaluation and contract award; 9) information security
management; 10) authentication; and 11) other conditions. |
