REQUESTING CLARIFICATIONS FOR THE DESIGN AND BUILD ANNEX G OF THE RA 9184

Is it permissible to have a Bidding Document listing the project locations for the Design and Build, then suddenly when the winning bidder exists, can the initial project locations approved by the HOPE in the Bidding documents be changed afterward? The location change is requested because the initial locations listed in the Bidding Documents were not approved by the concerned LGU/Partner Agency where the Design and Build project will be constructed. 

Thank you.

No, a substantial change in the terms of contract is not permissible. The purpose of fair competition is defeated if the areas that will be utilized for the project is different from areas that are bidded - whether design and buiild or pure infra project.

Why bid out the locations if there is no approval yet? #jhezasking

In the context of the query, we have projects approved by the LGU for the construction location. However, another agency, such as the DPWH for example, has raised objections to continuing the project at that given location. Therefore, we are considering rerouting the construction of the infrastructure within the same LGU area, but changing the specific street location.

If that is the case, I would suggest cancelling the awarded project, and proceed with rebidding.
