PROCUREMENT PLAN - Textual Part Project information: CS Partnership Facility for Resilience (P172339) Project Implementation Agency: VNG International (VNGI) Date of the Procurement Plan: April 12, 2021 Period covered by this Procurement Plan: From April 2021 to March 2022 Preamble In accordance with paragraph 5.9 of the “World Bank Procurement Regulations for IPF Borrowers” (July 2016) (“Procurement Regulations”) the Bank’s Systematic Tracking and Exchanges in Procurement (STEP) system will be used to prepare, clear and update Procurement Plans and conduct all procurement transactions for the Project. This textual part along with the Procurement Plan tables in STEP constitute the Procurement Plan for the Project. The following conditions apply to all procurement activities in the Procurement Plan. The other elements of the Procurement Plan as required under paragraph 4.4 of the Procurement Regulations are set forth in STEP. The Bank’s Standard Procurement Documents: Shall be used for all contracts subject to international competitive procurement and those contracts as specified in the Procurement Plan tables in STEP. National Procurement Arrangements: In accordance with paragraph 5.3 of the Procurement Regulations, when approaching the national market (as specified in the Procurement Plan tables in STEP), the country’s own procurement procedures may be used. When the Borrower uses its own national open competitive procurement arrangements as set forth in the National Procurement Legislation such arrangements shall be subject to paragraph 5.4 of the Procurement Regulations and the following conditions: 1. The request for bids/request for proposals document shall require that Bidders/Proposers submitting Bids/Proposals present a signed acceptance at the time of bidding to be incorporated in any resulting contracts, confirming application of, and compliance with, the Bank’s Anti-Corruption Guidelines, including without limitation the Bank’s right to sanction and the Bank’s inspection and audit rights. The Bank’s Anti- Corruption Guidelines and Sanctions Framework shall be incorporated into the national bidding documents by adding a page entitled “Letter of Acceptance of the World Bank’s Anti-Corruption Guidelines and Sanctions Framework”. 2. Contracts with an appropriate allocation of responsibilities, risks, and liabilities between the Borrower and the contractors/suppliers/consultants. 3. Rights for the Bank to review procurement documentation and activities. In accordance with the Procurement Regulations, each bidding document and contract shall include provisions stating the Bank's policy to sanction firms or individuals, found to have engaged in fraud and/or corruption as defined in the Procurement Regulations. In accordance with the Procurement Regulations, each bidding document and contract financed out of the proceeds of the Financing Agreement shall provide that bidders, suppliers, contractors and their subcontractors, agents, personnel, consultants, service providers, or suppliers shall permit the Bank to inspect all accounts, records and other documents relating to the bid submission and performance of the contract and to have said accounts and records audited by auditors appointed by the Bank. Acts intended to materially impede the exercise of the Bank's inspection and audit rights provided for in the Procurement Regulations constitute an obstructive practice as defined in the Regulations. 4. No bids shall be rejected solely because they fall below or exceed the estimated cost. All bids (including in the case when less than two bids are received) shall not be rejected, the procurement process shall not be cancelled, and new bids shall not be solicited without the Bank's prior written concurrence. The Bidding Documents template to be used under “national open competitive procurement arrangements” are subject to prior written concurrence by the Bank. When other national procurement arrangements other than national open competitive procurement arrangements are applied by the Borrower, such arrangements shall be subject to paragraph 5.5 of the Procurement Regulations. Leased Assets as specified under paragraph 5.10 of the Procurement Regulations: Not Applicable. Procurement of Second-hand Goods as specified under paragraph 5.11 of the Procurement Regulations: Not Applicable Domestic preference as specified under paragraph 5.51 of the Procurement Regulations (Goods and Works).
