According to the Office of the People's Committee of Binh Phuoc province, the People's Committee of the province has received a proposal from Son Hai Group on the above package, including a proposal to re-it up bidding.
Currently, relevant departments and branches are advising the People's Committee of Binh Phuoc province to consider handling and responding, on the basis of compliance with the provisions of law.
The People's Committee of Binh Phuoc province has assigned the Binh Phuoc Department of Finance to re-evaluate the entire bidding process for the Ho Chi Minh City - Thu Dau Mot - Chon Thanh expressway construction project. The province will follow the correct procedures to respond to businesses' questions.
The handling steps of the People's Committee of Binh Phuoc province after receiving the petition of Son Hai Group are timely, in accordance with the procedures and hope that the case will be resolved transparently and in accordance with the law.
For the bidding for this package, when there are tangled factors as mentioned by Son Hai Group, there needs to be a clear answer.
Son Hai Group abandoned the lowest bid and was eliminated, while selecting the contractor with the highest bid among the 5 participating contractors.
Quitting the lowest bid but not being selected can happen, but the Management Board must provide legally based and scientific reasons to convince the eliminated businesses.
The bidding for the Ho Chi Minh City - Thu Dau Mot - Chon Thanh expressway construction package attracted the attention of the business community as well as managers. Because Son Hai Group has a basis for giving its reaction, public opinion is waiting for a satisfactory solution from the local government.
For transparency and fairness, the People's Committee of Binh Phuoc province should establish an independent interdisciplinary expert team with the investor and the bidding party to re-score this package.
As our ancestors taught, "real gold is not afraid of fire", if you do the right thing, be ready to invite a group of independent experts to participate. If we invite the old expert group to re-evaluate the bidding, there will be a lack of objectivity.
Look at the conflicts of the above bidding case with a positive perspective, that is, the bidding enterprise proactively makes recommendations when it sees unfairness or signs of lack of transparency as something that needs to be done.
If any enterprise boldly speaks out to claim rights and request the organization of bidding judgments to clarify fairness, bidding activities will be healthier.
Local authorities and project management boards actively resolve questions and complaints to make bidding activities transparent.
We must put into the past the tricks of "blue army, red army", "front door, back yard" and the group of interests divided into several unclear projects.
