Preface
These Philippine Bidding Documents (PBDs) for the procurement of Goods through
Competitive Bidding have been prepared by the Government of the Philippines for use by
any branch, constitutional commission or office, agency, department, bureau, office, or
instrumentality of the Government of the Philippines, National Government Agencies,
including Government-Owned and/or Controlled Corporations, Government Financing
Institutions, State Universities and Colleges, and Local Government Unit. The procedures
and practices presented in this document have been developed through broad experience, and
are for mandatory use in projects that are financed in whole or in part by the Government of
the Philippines or any foreign government/foreign or international financing institution in
accordance with the provisions of the 2016 revised Implementing Rules and Regulations of
Republic Act No. 9184.
The Bidding Documents shall clearly and adequately define, among others: (i) the
objectives, scope, and expected outputs and/or results of the proposed contract or Framework
Agreement, as the case may be; (ii) the eligibility requirements of Bidders; (iii) the expected
contract or Framework Agreement duration, the estimated quantity in the case of
procurement of goods, delivery schedule and/or time frame; and (iv) the obligations, duties,
and/or functions of the winning bidder.
Care should be taken to check the relevance of the provisions of the PBDs against the
requirements of the specific Goods to be procured. If duplication of a subject is inevitable in
other sections of the document prepared by the Procuring Entity, care must be exercised to
avoid contradictions between clauses dealing with the same matter.
Moreover, each section is prepared with notes intended only as information for the
Procuring Entity or the person drafting the Bidding Documents. They shall not be included
in the final documents. The following general directions should be observed when using the
documents:
a. All the documents listed in the Table of Contents are normally required for the
procurement of Goods. However, they should be adapted as necessary to the
circumstances of the particular Procurement Project.
b. Specific details, such as the “name of the Procuring Entity” and “address for
bid submission,” should be furnished in the Instructions to Bidders, Bid Data
Sheet, and Special Conditions of Contract. The final documents should
contain neither blank spaces nor options.
c. This Preface and the footnotes or notes in italics included in the Invitation to
Bid, Bid Data Sheet, General Conditions of Contract, Special Conditions of
Contract, Schedule of Requirements, and Specifications are not part of the text
of the final document, although they contain instructions that the Procuring
Entity should strictly follow.

d. The cover should be modified as required to identify the Bidding Documents
as to the Procurement Project, Project Identification Number, and Procuring
Entity, in addition to the date of issue.
f. For guidelines on the use of Bidding Forms and the procurement of Foreign-
Assisted Projects, these will be covered by a separate issuance of the
Government Procurement Policy Board.

Samples of specifications from previous similar procurements are useful in this respect.
The use of metric units is encouraged. Depending on the complexity of the goods and the
repetitiveness of the type of procurement, it may be advantageous to standardize the
34
General Technical Specifications and incorporate them in a separate subsection. The
General Technical Specifications should cover all classes of workmanship, materials, and
equipment commonly involved in manufacturing similar goods. Deletions or addenda
should then adapt the General Technical Specifications to the particular procurement.
Care must be taken in drafting specifications to ensure that they are not restrictive. In the
specification of standards for equipment, materials, and workmanship, recognized
Philippine and international standards should be used as much as possible. Where other
particular standards are used, whether national standards or other standards, the
specifications should state that equipment, materials, and workmanship that meet other
authoritative standards, and which ensure at least a substantially equal quality than the
standards mentioned, will also be acceptable. The following clause may be inserted in the
Special Conditions of Contract or the Technical Specifications.
Wherever reference is made in the Technical Specifications to specific standards and codes
to be met by the goods and materials to be furnished or tested, the provisions of the latest
edition or revision of the relevant standards and codes shall apply, unless otherwise
expressly stated in the Contract. Where such standards and codes are national or relate to a
particular country or region, other authoritative standards that ensure substantial
equivalence to the standards and codes specified will be acceptable.
Reference to brand name and catalogue number should be avoided as far as possible; where
unavoidable they should always be followed by the words “or at least equivalent.”
References to brand names cannot be used when the funding source is the GOP.
Where appropriate, drawings, including site plans as required, may be furnished by the
Procuring Entity with the Bidding Documents. Similarly, the Supplier may be requested to
provide drawings or samples either with its Bid or for prior review by the Procuring Entity
during contract execution.
Bidders are also required, as part of the technical specifications, to complete their statement
of compliance demonstrating how the items comply with the specification.
