spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/7599 Tender evaluation : a means of assessing the true value to the client. Kipps, Shirwell Barry Jervis, W Engineering Includes bibliography. The advent of large multidisciplinary projects has necessitated an in-depth evaluation of tenders to ensure that the tenderer awarded the contract has submitted the lowest acceptable evaluated tender sum and has convinced the evaluation team that, by adequate resourcing and programming, he has appreciated the technical implications. The objectives of this thesis were threefold: * to discuss the need for a new approach to tender evaluation; * to propose amendments to the traditional tender document to provide a basis for a detailed tender evaluation; and * to propose methods of evaluating the information received from the tenderers so that the tender most suitable from both financial and technical considerations is recommended to the client. An extensive literature survey revealed little relevant reference material and, as a result, the author's experience in the evaluation of tenders, together with input from engineers knowledgeable in this field, has formed the basis of this thesis. To obtain the information necessary for the evaluation phase, the tender document must be so structured as to provide the tenderer with sufficient detail to adequately assess the complexity of the project and to provide the evaluation team with sufficient pertinent information to adequately evaluate the tender. 2014-09-22T07:54:34Z 2014-09-22T07:54:34Z 1984 Master Thesis Masters MIndAdmin http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7599 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
