Evaluation of the gray income of experts

Reporter investigations found that, due to the Government Procurement Law, there are some legal blind spots and the lack of implementation rules, government procurement in some places are being maliciously manipulated out of some gray areas, the emergence of the national brand is excluded, the procurement price is much higher than the market price, mismanagement of the expert pool, evaluation of the bidding experts discretion is too large, the purchaser "selective "Confirmation of the winning bidder, as well as purchasers and equipment manufacturers malicious collusion and other abnormal phenomena. Some legal compliance, quality and low-priced national brand manufacturers strongly appeal, in the new round of government investment-led stimulation of domestic demand environment, the relevant departments should increase the government procurement field of corruption investigation and handling, and at the same time should be introduced as soon as possible, "Government Procurement Law" implementation rules and amendments to the "Government Procurement Law" of the relevant provisions of the market from the starting point to create a fair and just market environment for those who are truly The quality and price of the products to become the main products to stimulate domestic demand.

In July 2007, the Guangzhou Municipality informed the government procurement bidding cases of violations of the law, involving 3 judges were criticized and lifelong removal of the name. In the same month, the Guangzhou Municipal Government Procurement Center "nest case" was triggered, including the center of the relevant person in charge of a number of staff members were investigated by the Guangzhou Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection Department, and several Guangzhou Municipal Bureau of Finance officials involved in the case.

The Guangzhou Municipal Government Procurement Center Director Lin Zhibin told reporters that the annual amount of government procurement in Guangzhou are in the tens of billions of dollars or more, involving 87 product catalogs, and the number of experts in the expert database is too small, far from meeting the demand for experts in government procurement. But now is the separation of management, the Financial Services Bureau is responsible for the management of the expert pool, the Government Procurement Center is only in charge of the use.

The reporter found that the investigation, although the relevant legal provisions, experts in a year can not be 3 consecutive times as a review of experts, but in Guangzhou there are experts in a year the number of evaluation of the number of bids up to more than 20 times. Bid evaluation experts each evaluation of the labor fee of only three or four hundred dollars, but even a deputy secretary general of the Guangzhou Municipal Government's lover, with electronic senior engineer, senior economist title, want not to reveal their identity, relying on their own ability to "break into" the expert pool team, the results of the Financial Services Bureau of the Government Procurement Department encountered a Waterloo, the expert pool! Members of the dream failed to wish.

Informants told reporters, now Guangzhou's bid evaluation experts a year of gray income of at least 200,000 yuan or more, some evaluation experts have been too lazy to go to high-grade restaurants to eat, and directly asked to go to high-grade nightclub consumption. Guangzhou Information Engineering Bidding Center informed sources told reporters that the expert corruption is now also very secretive, as long as he does not directly contact with the bidders, you can not say that he collusion, not to mention corruption. As equipment manufacturers are not directly involved in bidding, and experts in public relations work and emotional investment is generally left to the equipment manufacturers, experts almost every month will participate in some manufacturers to organize the "brainwashing" activities.

Authorities told reporters that around the government procurement bidding interest chain, has formed a financial system as a link to the impenetrable interest derivatives. First of all, the expert pool in the selection of experts is extremely opaque, the general professional government procurement evaluation experts only more than 10, most of the rest are not professional and academic economists, the key is the financial system to have a relationship. According to a reporter's survey, in Guangzhou, the government procurement of experts in the library, a Guangzhou University, a webmaster is part of the electronics, property, air conditioning, furniture, insurance and other aspects of the bid evaluation experts.

This person revealed that the current government procurement agency practitioners are mostly family members of the circle, in the current employment situation is becoming increasingly difficult environment, these organizations are less than half of the practitioners of the education of a full-time undergraduate degree or more; furthermore, the early government procurement agreement suppliers are basically financial system officials, friends and relatives of the company.

Li Yingzhi, director of the Government Procurement Management Office of the Guangzhou Panyu District Finance Bureau, previously interviewed by the reporter, the responsibility for the abolition of Gree was pushed to the experts, "We are not abolished Gree's standard, it is the experts abolished." But experts do not seem to accept this kind of rhetoric, a review of experts told reporters privately, the day of the review from 2:30 p.m. to five-thirty, the purchaser has been pestering, especially bossy, constantly making tendentious remarks. The expert said, anyway, the evaluation fee is 300 yuan, even at 7:30 p.m. is only 400 yuan, and wanted to get out of the end as soon as possible, made in line with the wishes of the purchaser's decision. The expert insisted that he is innocent, as for other experts he can not guarantee. Panyu Central Hospital for the procurement unit of the strong posture, Guangzhou Municipal Government Procurement Center staff Pan Ruiyu previously accepted a reporter in an interview that "do not understand", but feel "helpless.

The reporter found that in Guangzhou Panyu District Central Hospital air conditioning procurement project (sub-package II: outpatient building frequency multi-connected air conditioner equipment procurement and installation) of the bidding and procurement process, the purchaser's tendency to choose the intention is very obvious. When the domestic air conditioning industry, the only world famous brand Gree air conditioning to 17,072,997,000 yuan offer to become the first winning candidate, the purchasing unit of the Panyu Central Hospital, but in the evaluation after the meeting to "evaluation of its commissioned by the bid evaluation experts that the winning candidate's bidding documents there are many problems, 'the scene reflects, not be taken seriously! ', and then again carefully verify the "bidding documents", that Gree air conditioning bidding equipment in essence can not meet the bidding documents '★' (required) terms" on the grounds of refusal to confirm Gree, so that the procurement activities in a stalemate. Guangzhou Municipal Government Procurement Center according to the Panyu District Government Procurement Office decision to organize the original bid evaluation committee on the "sub-package two" review.

Reporters further investigation found that after the review, due to the challenge of Gree, November 25, 2008, the Panyu District Procurement Office decided to suspend the project procurement activities. December 3, 2008, the Panyu Central Hospital to "government requirements to ensure that the completion of July 1, 2009 and put into use, 'sub-package 2 On December 5, 2008, the Panyu District Government Procurement Office made a decision to resume procurement activities, and the Panyu Central Hospital was "selective" in its decision. The company's "selective" confirmation is finally a success.

A government procurement agency practitioners in Guangzhou told reporters that if the purchaser does not meet their wishes after the evaluation of the winning candidate's bid and tender documents for comparison, surely a hundred percent can be picked out, because according to the bidding documents, "conformity" check, as long as there is a bidding documents do not match on the Can be scrapped, can say a word, a sentence out of order can be scrapped. For those bidders who collude with the purchaser, their bidding documents may not be in accordance with the actual situation of their products, but copy the bidding documents, in order to seek the right to win the bid in bad faith response, even if the delivery of the product does not match the bidding documents, the purchaser is only "passive" acceptance.

This person analyzed, the current bidding law in the purchaser seems to be as long as the public bidding can be, the law is very little constraints, the rights and responsibilities are very unequal, "the procurement of parties have the right to take away the bidder's bid after the evaluation meeting? Since the bidder after the evaluation of the Q&A can not be counted as part of the bidding documents, so the purchaser in the evaluation of the site outside the questioning has no validity?"

A questionable question, Panyu Central Hospital, why the offer 1707.2997 million yuan of the first winning candidate refused to confirm, but "selective" to confirm the offer amount of 21,511,887 million yuan of Guangdong Provincial Petroleum and Chemical Industry Construction Group Company? This "only choose the expensive" selective confirmation is contrary to the principle of government procurement? If so, then this tendency to choose and how to get through, bypassing the bidding chain management and supervision of the layers set up by the "firewall"?

Previously, in May 2007, the Guangzhou Municipal Bureau of Finance issued a special message, will be through the six "tightrope" to strengthen the management, the requirements to ensure that the price of government procurement shall not be higher than the market price of the purchaser to understand.

December 18, 2008, in the Guangzhou Municipal Government Procurement Center of the official website of the procurement information in the preview, the reporter found that the Guangzhou City, Haizhu District Maternal and Child Health Hospital of the multi-connected air-conditioning project (Project No.: GGPC-2008324) bidding documents in the necessary terms and conditions once again with the Guangzhou Panyu District Central Hospital Air Conditioning Procurement Project (sub-package I: medical building inverter multi-connected air-conditioning equipment procurement and installation) the same. Equipment procurement and installation) the same "★" clause - "indoor unit, outdoor unit, compressor must be produced by the manufacturer of the same brand of products. Many suppliers questioned this is a typical exclusion of the national brand tendency of the provisions of a foreign brand "tailor-made".

Chigo air conditioning public relations minister Huang Tonghua told reporters that although the bidding documents do not explicitly require imported brands, but similar screw machines, multi-connected machines, etc., the requirements of the whole brand and compressor brand consistent, this condition can only be achieved by the foreign brands, the terms of the actual exclusion of all national brands. Lin Zhibin explained to the reporter, "Government Procurement Law" does not make any provision for the national brand, whether it is a national brand or foreign brands, as long as it is manufactured in the country, belongs to the "national goods", if more than three suppliers to meet the bidding is not illegal.

Huang Tonghua said, the air conditioning industry is a fully competitive industry, 80% of the world's air conditioning is made in China. At present, the core technology of some domestic brands have been in the world's leading level, even in foreign countries can be completely and the world's air conditioning giants competing on the same stage, but in their own countries have encountered such restrictions, the heart is very sad. Huang Tonghua said, the national brand does not want to enjoy any preferential treatment and protection in the field of government procurement, but should not be encountered in their own country restrictions.

The reporter found that this mandatory terms of the Guangzhou Railway Transportation two/eight line extension project and three lines of the northern extension of the project ventilation and air-conditioning system chiller equipment procurement (bidding No. 0724-0700A758N123/03) bidding documents are also clearly in the eye. But the Guangzhou Municipal Government Procurement Center specifically explained to the reporter, Panyu District Central Hospital air-conditioning procurement project, "sub-package two" review of the winning unit of the Guangdong Provincial Petrochemical Construction Group, Inc. agent is not a foreign brand, is the domestic United States of America air conditioning.

Guangzhou Information Engineering Bidding Center, an informed source told reporters that in recent years, some foreign brands of equipment manufacturers and some purchasers through the manipulation of the technical indicators system for malicious collusion phenomenon is very obvious, its individual technical indicators of the provisions of the possible tendency not to have, but more than one technical indicator of the terms together is for a foreign brand, which is in the IT products, medical equipment, commercial air conditioning, and so on. This is very typical in the field of IT products, medical equipment, commercial air conditioners, etc. For example, set up some technical parameters and brand is completely consistent with other brands and their requirements of the parameters have a certain deviation, and for technical deviation deduction is very high; there is a requirement to provide bidding products of some foreign testing organizations test reports, so that basically locks up some foreign brands.

The informant told reporters that foreign brand manufacturers in the technical indicators on the basis of manipulation, and then through the agency of its products, the bidders issued authorization for price manipulation of this link, which is the price of centralized government procurement tends to be more expensive than the market price of an important factor. The person said, as equipment manufacturers are generally not directly involved in bidding, this behind-the-scenes manipulation is not yet legally binding.
