Specifically, the "Notice" focuses on three major problems in the bidding field of housing construction and municipal engineering, such as incomplete electronicization, rampant violations of laws and regulations, and inadequate process supervision, and plans to carry out systematic governance.
1, realize the electronic bidding process.
20 19 12 The Notice on Launching the Electronic Trial Operation of the Whole Process of Bidding for Housing Construction and Municipal Engineering under Provincial Supervision issued by the three departments of Sichuan Province started the pilot work of electronic bidding for the whole process of survey, design, supervision and equipment and materials procurement.
During the trial, the problem of inconsistency in bidding documents gradually emerged. For example, in March 2020, Ziyang requested that the standard bidding documents compiled by the Provincial Development and Reform Commission and the Provincial Housing and Construction Department should be used for construction bidding, and the standard bidding documents compiled by the Provincial Housing and Construction Department should be used for survey, design, equipment procurement and material procurement in supervision bidding. In Chengdu, the bidding documents are compiled and put on record according to the standard bidding document template of Chengdu housing construction and municipal infrastructure engineering. The bidding documents of electronic bidding standards in various cities (states) are not unified and standardized, which not only constitutes regulatory obstacles, but also often provides opportunities for the breeding of corruption and even lays hidden dangers for the quality and safety of projects. Therefore, the "Notice" proposes to form a perfect bidding document system of the province's electronic bidding standards and solve institutional obstacles.
In the trial process, the limitations of incomplete electronic bidding have also emerged. For example, in terms of bid evaluation, electronic bid evaluation has been fully implemented in housing construction, municipal engineering and other fields in Sichuan Province since June 20 1 20 17. However, the remote bid evaluation in different places has not been normalized, and the cross-regional, cross-level and cross-system electronic bid evaluation system has not been established, which hinders the full realization of electronic bidding process. Therefore, the Notice requires that the whole process of bidding, tendering, bid opening and bid evaluation be fully electronic, and puts forward the working goal of 10 to launch the whole process electronic bidding system before the end of the year.
2, investigate and deal with illegal acts in the construction market.
The long-standing violations of laws and regulations by market participants have undermined the fair competition order in the construction market and affected the healthy development of bidding.
First of all, the circular puts forward the direction of centralized rectification for different market players: for bidders, we will severely crack down on behaviors such as evading bidding (breaking up the project into parts or practicing fraud in other ways), false bidding, setting unreasonable conditions to exclude potential bidders or bidders (such as setting qualifications higher than those required by the project itself, and taking other qualifications as bidding conditions and winning conditions in areas where the qualifications have been explicitly cancelled by the state). ), interfere in bid evaluation or illegally determine the winning bidder; Focusing on bidders, investigate and deal with fraud, collusion in bidding, defrauding the bid (exceeding the qualification level of enterprises or using other enterprises to undertake projects), borrowing cards to link (transferring or lending qualification certificates or allowing others to undertake projects in the name of enterprises in other ways) and other phenomena; For the winning bidder, we will focus on rectifying illegal subcontracting, illegal subcontracting, winning the bid at a low price and winning the bid at a high price, not signing the contract according to the bidding documents, and not fulfilling the obligations according to the contract (the main management personnel on the construction site are inconsistent with the commitments, witnesses are inconsistent, and they are not on duty, etc.). ).
Secondly, the circular requires comprehensive self-examination and key verification of housing construction and municipal engineering projects under construction since 20 19, and housing construction departments at all levels are responsible for collecting, summarizing and establishing ledgers. Various prefecture-level cities have also made innovative arrangements on this basis. For example, Yibin city requires a comprehensive self-examination and key verification of housing construction and municipal engineering projects that have been tendered since 20 19; Panzhihua City requires the organization of self-inspection by bidders, verification by industry departments, and spot checks by municipal departments, so as to comprehensively standardize the market main body behavior of bidders.
3. Strengthen the supervision of the whole bidding process.
In addition to strengthening the standardization of bidding documents before bidding and the investigation and punishment of irregularities in bidding, the Notice also fills the regulatory loopholes in key links from two aspects: strengthening the management of experts and strengthening the management of intermediaries, and strives to create a legal, standardized and orderly regulatory system for the whole bidding process.
Focusing on the supervision of the bid evaluation process, the Notice takes the bid evaluation experts as the starting point, and requires the housing and construction departments at all levels to increase the efforts to find problems, promptly hand over the illegal clues of bid evaluation experts to the development and reform department, cooperate with the development and reform department to strengthen the supervision of the bid evaluation process, complete the training of bid evaluation experts, and explore the management mode of points system.
Focusing on the supervision of intermediary activities, in order to strengthen the management of bidding agencies and employees, on the one hand, the Notice deploys and revises the Measures for Bidding Agents of Construction Projects in Sichuan Province, and improves the supporting regulations and management system for bidding; On the other hand, it also puts forward to explore the establishment of credit management and evaluation mechanism of bidding agencies, improve the multi-dimensional supervision system, and solve the problem of chaotic market management of bidding agencies.
In addition, "Strengthening the supervision of contract performance after bidding" put forward by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development's Guiding Opinions on Further Strengthening the Supervision of Bidding for Housing Construction and Municipal Infrastructure Projects should also be the next governance direction of Sichuan Province. Specifically, in addition to strengthening the linkage between the construction market and the construction site, Sichuan Province can continue to implement the Notice on Further Promoting the Construction Project Guarantee Insurance, improve the construction project guarantee insurance mechanism, strengthen contract performance, and finally promote the high-quality development of the construction industry.
It is not difficult to find that the systematic management of outstanding problems in the bidding field of housing construction and municipal engineering in Sichuan can be summarized as four points: filling the shortcomings of work and improving the efficiency of bidding activities; Strictly investigate and deal with accountability to ensure the legality of bidding activities; Strengthen process supervision to ensure the fairness of bidding activities; Improve the rules and regulations to ensure the fairness of bidding activities. Only by establishing an efficient, legal, just and fair bidding market can we give full play to the competition and merit-based functions of the market mechanism and push Sichuan's construction onto the road of high-quality development.
