Legal Precedents & CVC Guidelines for Tender Representation

CVC Circular No. 01/02/11

Pre-qualification criteria must be generic, non-restrictive, and directly proportionate to the estimated value and technical complexity of the contract.

Supreme Court Ruling (Article 14)

Tailor-made tender criteria favoring specific manufacturers without public justification violate Article 14 (Equality before Law) and render the tender void.

When is the best time to file a tender representation? expand_more

Always file your representation BEFORE the pre-bid query deadline or at least 7 to 10 days prior to the bid closing date. Pre-bid representations result in formal corrigenda (amendments) in over 50% of justified cases.

Can a procuring entity blacklist my firm for filing a legal protest? expand_more

No. Under CVC and Ministry of Finance procurement manuals, filing a legitimate administrative grievance or pre-bid representation is a protected statutory right. Blacklisting without due process or proven fraudulent misconduct is illegal.
