Enhancing Tender Evaluation Framework to Improve Construction Productivity

15% of total quality points Mandatory Quality Attribute With Effect from 15 Jul 2013

C-Score in PQM
We shape a safe, high quality, sustainable and friendly built environment.

Scoring of C-Score in PQM will be based on:

CS Index calculated from the firms latest completed projects during the last 3 years (up to max 5)

We shape a safe, high quality, sustainable and friendly built environment.

Constructability Score Index

We shape a safe, high quality, sustainable and friendly built environment.

Illustration on Computation of CS Index

Assume that the C-Scores of the latest 5 projects completed by a contractor are as follows:

We shape a safe, high quality, sustainable and friendly built environment.

Illustration on Computation of CS Index

Assume that the contractor has only 3 projects with C-Scores as follows:
Contractors C-Score Achieved 43 45 53 Legislated Minimum CScore 40 40 50

Project 1 Project 2 Project 3

We shape a safe, high quality, sustainable and friendly built environment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: Where can I obtain the information of the CS Index? Answer: CS Index for each builder will be uploaded to BCA website on a monthly basis. CS Index for each month will be computed based on available records as at 20th of preceding month. Only the 3 most recent months CS Indices will be retained.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: How can the constructability component of the quality attributes of the contractor be evaluated? Answer: Constructability Quality Points of the Tenderer = Tenderers CS Index* ----------------------------Highest CS Index

X 15 points

*CS index can be obtained via BCA Web

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: How should the quality points of the constructability component of tenderers be computed for the following scenarios? (i) Not all the tenderers has CS Index; (ii) None of the tenderers or only one tenderer has CS Index? Answer: (i) Tenderer with no CS Index = average quality points of the other conforming tenderers (ii) The constructability component should be discarded.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: How to determine which period of CS Index should be used for evaluation of tender? Answer: The CS Index for the month that the tender has closed should be used. Example: A tender closed on 17th March 2011. Hence, March 2011 CS Index will be used for evaluation.

A tender closed on 31st Dec 2011. Hence, Dec 2011 CS Index will be used for evaluation.
