INTRODUCTION TO TENDER PROCESS SERVICES
Architects Integrating Industry [AI2SA]
provides various independent “Tender
Process Services” to end clients using industrial
control and production systems.
Key questions: Clients to decide
if in house experience exists on handling the tender process along
with scoping the requirements and specifications in order to reduce
variations.
BENEFITS FOR END CLIENTS
The list below provides a brief overview of some of the benefits
envisaged to be expected by clients:
-
Independent Objectivity since AI2SA
is not aligned to a specific product
-
Accurate budget estimates since AI2SA
derives no benefit from implementation
-
Clearly specified expectations were AI2SA
documenting scope reduces scope creep
-
Specifications which capture client’s
Intellectual Property and standards at the beginning of the
process, provided that sufficient time is allowed for AI2SA
to do this. Often this is not the case during implementation.
-
Up Front quality expectations based on AI2SA’s
experience of critical success factors
-
Definition of standards up front by AI2SA
provide savings due to re-usability
-
While clients have standard contracts AI2SA
has found that often they do not cover all critical aspects
of industrial projects.
-
In the experience of AI2SA
often the approach to a project is overlooked resulting in scope
creep or risk to either client or system integrator.
-
Since AI2SA is
not aligned to a solution provider there is no possibility of
corruption during the tender process which is totally objectively
managed.
