Infoserve Technologies prepares a bill of quantities (BoQ) as part of the tender documents. It provides project-specific measured quantities of the items of work indicated on the drawings and specifications document. Potential bidders use the BoQ to determine the costs of various products for their bid. It provides a fair and reliable system for bidding and bid assessment.
The BoQ is created by our cost consultants and is based on the completed design and project specifications. It is an integral part of the tender process and helps to ensure that the best possible price is obtained for the project.
We possess the tools to perform bid evaluation exercises and assist customers in selecting the most appropriate vendor for Data Center implementation after a transparent bidding process. In the bid evaluation exercise, the following key areas are examined.
