Lowest Price No Longer Sole Criterion For Romanian Public Bids – Transp Min

Romanian Transports Minister Radu Berceanu said Tuesday that the criteria according to which public work contracts are awarded in an auction will be changed, so that the price of the offer will have a weight of 40%, down from the 100% provided by current laws.

The technical project will account for the other 60%, Berceanu said in a meeting with representatives of construction companies. Berceanu did not specify the date these changes are to come into effect.

According to Berceanu, construction firms offer a low price, which they increase once they have won the auction, and that the changes will put an end to such practices.

The minister also said he will not stand for any more excuses made up by construction and consultancy firms to justify delays.
