Tendering

As your construction service professional, we are committed to providing you, the owner, with the best possible prices and service to successfully undertake your construction project. We achieve this through our knowledge of the construction process and being aware of current market trends and conditions.

Our approach is two-fold:

  • To secure trade contractors that offer the best value and are aligned with your expectations and requirements.
  • To effectively transfer the project risk from the owner to the trade contractor or supplier within the pre determined budget and schedule constraints.

Transparent procurement system

Utilizing our knowledge of the construction process and the marketplace we develop a transparent procurement process that places your interests front and centre in procuring the best possible value.

Developing a bidders list

Based upon our experience of the construction marketplace, we will develop a bidders list in consultation with the project team that is best suited to provide value to you the owner.

Value Engineering

MHPM working collaboratively with the design team tables options that provide value to you the owner. These options are then identified in the tender documents to allow the bidders to provide alternative prices that will be reviewed at tender close.

Bid Package Development

Clearly define the bidder’s responsibility and coordination requirements, through the development of a general scope and a specific scope that clearly defines responsibility, address issues of ambiguity and overlap of scope in the documents.

Pre-tender Review of Bid Packages

Review bid packages with the project team in order to make each package as complete as possible and ensure that everyone is aware of and agrees to the terms and conditions of performing the work of a particular package.

Tender

Based upon consultation with the project team prepare a detailed procurement and tender schedule that is linked directly with the project schedule to ensure that milestone dates are identified at an early stage and met.

Upon tenders closing, MHPM will open the submitted bids with the presence of the owner.  MHPM will take this information and provide a bid analysis including post tender clarification meetings with the lower bidder.

Contract Award Recommendation

Upon tender close and post tender meeting(s), MHPM will complete a tender analysis and provide a bid analysis and a Contract Award Recommendation including the bid analysis and all pertinent documentation that will be forwarded to the owner for review and approval.
