Interested consultants must provide information indicating that they are qualified to perform the Service. Consultants shall contact the JPAC to obtain a copy of the template that must be used to submit any Expression of Interest. Only applications using the correct template will be accepted. Applications shall be submitted in hard copy only, one original English version and one copy, all in a single envelope with text on the outside of the envelope as follows “EOI for Consultancy Services for Geotechnical consultancy services for construction of motorway sections”. Not to be opened until [Date and time for opening stated further below in this notice].”

Candidates are allowed to ask clarifications up 15 days prior the deadline for submission by sending an email to the relevant address above.

JPAC intends to shortlist up to six eligible firms to whom a subsequent Request for Proposals (RFP), both technical and financial, shall be sent. In the event that more than six firms fulfil all the qualifying criteria below, JPAC shall use the criteria identified below to rank the applicants and the top six shall be invited to submit proposals.

Corporate services are required.

In the case of a joint venture, all the partners in the joint venture shall be jointly and severally liable for the entire contract, if selected.

In the event that a natural or legal entity submits or forms part of more than one application, all applications in which that entity has participated will be excluded.

Subsequently, following a standstill period of 10 calendar days, the JPAC will send Requests for Proposals (RFP) to the shortlisted selected applicants (maximum 6). Proposals shall be evaluated in two stages on basis of the Most Economically Advantageous Offer.
