PROPOSAL EVALUATION
GENERAL
5.1
From the time the proposals are opened to the time the contract is awarded, if any
consultant wishes to contact the Client on any matter related to its proposal, it should
do so in writing at the address indicated in the Data Sheet. Any effort by the firm to
influence the Client in the Client's proposal evaluation, proposal comparison or contract
award decisions may result in the rejection of the consultant's proposal.
5.2
Evaluators of Technical Proposals shall have no access to the Financial Proposals until
the technical evaluation, including its approval by competent authority is obtained
EVALUATION OF TECHNICAL PROPOSALS
5.3
The evaluation committee appointed by the Client as a whole, and each of its members
individually, evaluates the proposals on the basis of their responsiveness to the Terms
of Reference, applying the evaluation criteria, sub-criteria (typically not more than
three per criteria) and point system specified in the Data Sheet. Each responsive
proposal will be given a technical score (St). A proposal shall be rejected at this stage
10
After the evaluation of quality is completed, the Client shall notify those consultants
whose proposals did not meet the minimum qualifying mark or were considered nonresponsive to the RFP and Terms of Reference, indicating that their Financial Proposals
will be returned unopened after completing the selection process. The Client shall
simultaneously notify the consultants that have secured the minimum qualifying mark,
indicating the date and time set for opening the Financial Proposals. The opening date
shall not be sooner than one week after the notification date. The notification may be
sent by registered letter, cable, telex, facsimile, or electronic mail.
5.5
The Financial Proposals shall be opened publicly in the presence of the consultants'
representatives who choose to attend. The name of the consultant, the quality scores,
and the proposed prices shall be read aloud and recorded when the Financial
Proposals are opened. The Client shall prepare minutes of the public opening.
5.6
The evaluation committee will determine whether the Financial Proposals are complete,
(i.e., whether they have costed all items of the corresponding Technical Proposals, if
not, the Client will cost them and add their cost to the initial price), correct any
computational errors.
5.7
The Client will select the lowest proposal ('evaluated' price). The selected Consultant
will be invited for negotiations.
6.
6.1
NEGOTIATIONS
Negotiations will be held at the address indicated in the Data Sheet. The aim is to
reach agreement on all points and sign a contract.
6.2
11
Reference, staffing, and bar charts indicating activities, staff, periods in the field and
in the home office, staff-months, logistics, and reporting. The agreed work plan and
final Terms of Reference will then be incorporated in the "Description of Services" and
form part of the contract. Special attention will be paid to getting the most the
Consultant can offer within the available budget and to clearly defining the inputs
required from the Client to ensure satisfactory implementation of the Assignment.
6.3
Unless there are exceptional reasons, the financial negotiations will involve neither the
remuneration rates for staff (no breakdown of fees) nor other proposed unit rates.
6.4
Having selected the Consultant on the basis of, among other things, an evaluation of
proposed key professional staff, the Client expects to negotiate a contract on the basis
of the experts named in the Proposal. Before contract negotiations, the Client will
require assurances that the experts will be actually available. The Client will not
consider substitutions during contract negotiations unless both parties agree that undue
delay in the selection process makes such substitution unavoidable or that such changes
are critical to meet the objectives of the assignment. If this is not the case and if it is
established that key staff was offered in the proposal without confirming their
availability, the Consultant may be disqualified.
6.5
The negotiations will conclude with a review of the draft form of the contract. To
complete negotiations the Client and the Consultant will initial the agreed contract. If
negotiations fail, the Client will invite the firm who has quoted the second lowest price
for negotiations. The process will be repeated till an agreed contract is concluded.
7.
7.1
AWARD OF CONTRACT
The contract will be awarded following negotiations. After negotiations are completed,
the Client will promptly notify other consultants on the shortlist that they were
unsuccessful and return the Financial Proposals of those consultants who did not pass
the technical evaluation (para 5.3)
7.2
The Consultant is expected to commence the Assignment on the date and at the
location specified in the Data Sheet.

KSIIDC was a profit making Company for almost three decades of its existence and
has contributed significantly to the industrial development of the State.
Due to
changing market forces and ushering of economic liberalization (which brought about
severe competition in the financial market), the operations of KSIIDC suffered in the
last few years, as it did not have access to low cost funds.

Due
to the timely corrective measures and initiatives taken for the revival, the financial
performance of the year 2006-07 witnessed a turn around. KSIIDC has since been
posting cash profits including in the year ended on 31.3.2010.

Recovery of loans was on expected levels during the first half of FY 2010 and
mellowed during the later part on account of difficult market / financial conditions.

been completed during the year. With this, the total CRPS amount allotted (including
interest component) is Rs.197.63 crs which has to be redeemed in three tranches, at
the end of FY 2012, 2013 & 2014.
The interest commitments to IDBI and SIDBI against the negotiated settlement were

HUDCO loan and for investment in the equity capital of BIAL. Also, KSIIDC has acted
as a pass through agent for routing state support for the airport project, fencing the
DBP land and for procurement of land for trumpet interchange.
