 PROCUREMENT
• PROCUREMENT PLAN & PROCUREMENT DOCUMENT.
Procurement (Defin):- It is the process of obtaining goods, works, consultancy or any other services from
external sources.

According to Procurement Act 2063 (Nepal) “Procurement” means acquisition of any goods,
consultancy services or other services or carrying out or causing to be carried out any construction
works, by a public entity p ursuant to this Act”

Procurement is an important function in overall project management. Procurement like any other major
works starts from Identifying needs and planning till we obtain goods/ services or works. It is a strategic
function of obtaining works, goods or services in right quantities and quality at right place and right
time. It is a process of getting right value of money. Procurement is an overall process of;

• Identifying needs (like what exactly are needed to procure) and procurement planning (like how, when,
and where they are procured).
• Finding out the right quantity (of goods/services/works), and their estimated costs.
• Deciding required quality and standard.
• Identifying proper type, process, and procedures of procurement.
• Carrying out procurement.
 PROCUREMENT
• This process starts (civil construction project) by preparing tender drawings, estimates, preparing
specifications, selecting the method of bidding (direct procurement, quotation, lump-sum contract, item
rate contract, etc) deciding selection criteria of the bidder, instruction to bidders, condition of contracts,
bidders' selection criteria, ….till final payment and handing and taking over the construction works etc,

Types of Procurements: -

• Procurement of Works:- Procurement of all Infrastructure Developments, like Roads, Bridges, Buildings,
Hydro-power, Irrigation or, canal, any types of structure etc.

expert, sociological specialists, economists, environmentalists, security services etc.

• Procurement of Goods:- Construction Materials, Equipment, Machines, stationeries, airplanes, Vehicles,

Arms and Ammunitions, Medicines, Lab equipment, Food supply, Clothes Supply, Furniture etc.
 PROCUREMENT
1. Procurement Planning: (for civil works): Like any other planning, procurement planning also seeks to
answer the question like, why, what, who and when. Procurement plan is also prepared and sent to the
owner/ donor for their concurrence.
Why:- For successful completion of Requisite Project/works.
• It is one of the pre-requisite for successful project implementation (often neglected)
• Good procurement planning reduces the scope of non-compliance with agreed procedures, (mis-procurement)
• Improves transparency and predictability
• Provide a good basis for monitoring, control or Technical Audit.
• Increase competitions and thereby reduces cost of goods, services and works.
What:-What are the jobs to be carried out by responsible persons.
• Major jobs are defined for owner, consultant and contractors.
• What is needed to be procure
Who:- Who are the key responsible person? It could be a responsible person, Section (like procurement
section) or Department of an organization, or an experts etc.
• - In public offices, Procurement committee is formed that carry out this job.
 PROCUREMENT
When:-When the works are to be performed and accomplished by what time (start and end time).
• [In Government Agency, Procurement plans (Multiyear/Master Plan and yearly plans) are prepared and get it
approved by authorised person/ ministry/ National Planning Commission as per the policy of Government.]
[Note: In Government of Nepal’s offices, the procurement plan and procedures are governed by Public
Procurement Act 2063 and Public Procurement Regulations 2064]

• Major Planning Activities :

• Identification of requirements of Procurement
• Study of other procurement of availability of services, works, goods in the market, capacity, and
capabilities of bidders in the existing construction industry.
• Study of the last year’s procurements.
• Decide particulars, items, quantities, scope, and Types of Procurements (i.e Direct, sealed or tender
NCB, ICB etc)
• Packaging and slicing if needed [Packaging means integrating small procurement package into one
bigger package and Slicing means dividing dissimilar jobs into two or more specialized packages].
•Note: Our procurement acts prohibits the slicing a single works unless it has been proved that it necessary.
 PROCUREMENT
Contd… Major Planning Activities
• Preparation of Procurement Plan (GoN:-Preparation and Getting approval of Multi-Year and Annual Plan from the
relevant authority).
• Estimate of Procurement Expenditure: In addition to the cost of the project, the expenditure on procurement like
expert’s fees, tender notice publication expenditure, expenditure on documents preparations, etc are to be
estimated.
• Financial Source identification: (GoN:- Allocation of Budget is ensured)
2.0 Different ways of Procuring Works (Procurement of Civil Construction Works): Procurement of works (infrastructure or
buildings through construction) can be done in any of the following ways as per the Policy, Regulation, Byelaws
of the Government or that of organization.
• (Note: In GoN, office/ Department/ Project has to establish Procurement Unit to carry our procurement)

1. Self-purchase: [[cdfgt]: Small works can be carried out by owner. But this is rare at present day. In such
procurements, materials, labours are procured by owners.
2. By User’s Committee [pkef]Qmf ;ldlt jf nfeu|fxL ;d'bfonfO{ ;xefuL u/fO{]: Works can be carried out by
forming user’s committee.
3. Direct purchase: - Procurements can be done through direct purchase as per organizations policy/ rule.
Direct purchase is done for small works, services or few goods with small estimated cost. GoN rule (Works
costing less than 3,00,000/-)
 PROCUREMENT

2.4 Sealed Quotation:[l;naGbL b/efpkq cfx\jfgu/L] For lesser amount: As per owner’s or
organization’s policy, selected contractors are asked to submit their competitive quotations. The lowest
quoted rate or quotation is accepted and awarded the contract. In GoN’s rules, works costing less than
2.0 millions (20 lakhs), can be procured through contractors through Sealed Quotation)
2.5 National Competitive Bidding (NCB), from 2.0 to 20 millions: [/fli6«o :t/df v'Nnf af]nkq] As per
company policy /GoN-all the works estimated from 2.0 million to 20 million (20 lakhs to 2.0 crores). So,
evaluation of bidder’s qualification is not done. All bidders of Nepal can take part in the bidding.
2.6 National Competitive Bidding (NCB), above 20.0 million (2.0 crores): - All the eligible contractors
who meet the requirements/criteria can bid (or take part).

1. Selective Bidding (Prequalification of Contractors) [ [lnld6]8 6]08l/Ë ] :- For highly specialized

contracts or incurring large amounts of money, contractors are first Prequalified, and bidding is done
among the Prequalified only). Thus, such procurement is done in two stages.
Prequalify ensures that the invitation to bid is extended only to those prospective bidders who have
adequate capabilities and resources to perform the particular contract satisfactorily,

construction works can be purchased through ICB. An organization has to procure the works
through ICB, if the indigenous Contractors do not have adequate, technology, expertise and
