GPPB Functions
Policy-Making
 Amend implementing rules & regulations of procurement law
(quasi-legislative function)
 Prepare generic procurement manual and standard bidding
forms
Capacity Development
 Establish a sustainable training program
Monitoring
 Assist procuring entities improve their compliance
 Review effectiveness of procurement law
11
GPPB Functions
 GPPB has no jurisdiction to rule over actual
controversies with regard to the conduct of the
bidding since it has no quasi-judicial functions
under the law.
 It is the prerogative and discretion of the
procuring entity through its BAC to come up
with the declaration since they are in the best
position to determine the details of their Project.

Philippine Government
Electronic Procurement System
(PhilGEPS)
 Serves as the primary and definitive source of
information on all government procurement
 Utilized for the procurement of common-use supplies
to take advantage of bulk purchasing
 Features of the PhilGEPS
 Electronic Bulletin Board
 Electronic Registry
 Electronic Catalogue
 Virtual Store
 Electronic Payment
 Electronic Bid Submission
14
PhilGEPS Registration
 §8.5.1 RA 9184 IRR requires suppliers, contractors, consultants
to register with PhilGEPS. It does not qualify based on threshold.
 Inapplicability of the posting requirement is not tantamount to a
situation where PhilGEPS registration may also be dispensed
with since the amount of the project is not a factor for the
condition to apply.
 Registration with PhilGEPS is absolute, and must be complied
with regardless of the cost of procurement.
Reference: NPM 34-2013
15
PhilGEPS Registration
 Sections 23.4 and 24.4.3 allows the BAC of a procuring
entity to “maintain a registry system using the PhilGEPS
or its own manual or electronic system that allows
submission and/or recording of eligibility requirements
simultaneously with registration.” However, Prospective
bidders not included in the registry system should not
be precluded from participating in any procurement
opportunity.
16
PhilGEPS Registration
 This should not be considered an accreditation system,
and is not tantamount to a finding of eligibility, nor a
guarantee that the registered supplier, contractor, or
consultant will be eligible for any particular procurement
activity or contract award. (NPM 16-2013)

1. The items to be procured are complex or specialized;
2. If the single BAC cannot reasonably manage the
procurement transactions as shown by delays beyond
the allowable limits; or
3. If the creation is required according to the nature of
the procurement.
48
BIDS AND AWARDS COMMITTEE
(BAC)
 PE’s creation of sub-BACs to be placed under a main

composition of the BAC members subject to the
qualifications under Section 11.2.2 of the IRR of RA

his/her staff, unless the Accounting Department is
the end-user unit, in which case the Chief
Accountant, Head of the Accounting Department or
his/her staff may be designated as an end-user
member. (COA Circular Letter No. 2004 – 3)
60
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
 Conflict of interest arises when, in the case of the subject
matter of the inquiry, the Chairman of the BAC that conducted
the earlier procurement was eventually designated as OICHOPE.
 The subject procurement is deprived of checks and balances
as one of the persons conducting the bid evaluation and postqualification, who is no less than the BAC Chair, may have
that degree of proclivity towards the recommended action of
the BAC; thus, the subsequent award of contract may no
longer enjoy the cold neutrality of an impartial HOPE. (NPM
14-2013)
61
BAC SECRETARIAT
 HOPE may create a new office or designate an
existing organic office to act as BAC Secretariat
 There is no minimum or maximum number of
members of the BAC Secretariat.
 Head of the BAC SEC must be at least a 5th or
ranking permanent employee or, if not available,
permanent official of the next lower rank

FUNCTIONS:
Assist in managing the procurement process

milestones
Consolidate PPMPs
Act as central channel of communications
65
BAC SECRETARIAT
 BAC Secretariat Head cannot notarize resulting contract of
the procurement activities. (NPM 66-2013)
- The BAC Sec provides a vital supporting role for the PE in
the procurement process. If the BAC Sec Head is to
notarize the resulting contract, she would then take on a
more central role by bestowing upon the contract the
imprimatur of a legal attestation by a third person.
- This may invite suspicion of unfaithfulness, conflict of
interest, which may cast doubt on the contract in
particular, and the entire procurement activity as a whole.
66
BAC SECRETARIAT
• BAC Secretariat Head’s authority to sign procurement-
related documents should be confined to those that are
within the scope of her duties and responsibilities under
RA 9184 and its IRR, and should exclude those that
require the exercise of discretion, consent or approval on
matters under the jurisdiction of a different authority.
(NPM 66-2013)
67
BAC SECRETARIAT
 Section 14 of RA 9184 and its IRR limits the
responsibilities of the BAC Secretariat to administrative
support functions and primarily ministerial duties. Since
the BAC Secretariat is limited to these functions, the
conduct of opening and preliminary examination of bids,
where discretion and sound judgment is required, cannot
be considered as clerical or secretariat nature; therefore,
outside the functions of the BAC Secretariat. (NPM 692013)
68
TECHNICAL WORKING GROUP
(TWG)
 Created by the BAC from a pool of legal, technical
and financial experts
-
those experts outside the procuring entity
concerned may be included, i.e. government
personnel and officials and consultants from the
private sector and academe with proven expertise
on the sourcing of goods, works or consulting
services. (GPPB Resolution No. 07-2012, GPPB
Circular No. 02-2012)
 BAC may create separate TWGs to handle different
procurements
69
TECHNICAL WORKING GROUP
(TWG)
FUNCTIONS:
1. Assist BAC in the following activities:
 Preparation of bidding documents
 Eligibility check/short-listing
 Bid evaluation and preparation of reports
 Post-qualification
 Preparation of post-qualification summary report
2. Assist BAC and BAC Secretariat in preparing BAC
Resolutions
70
OBSERVERS
 Observers represent the public, the taxpayers who
are interested in seeing to it that procurement laws
are observed and irregularities are averted.
 In all stages of procurement process BAC must
in writing, at least three (3) Observers, at least 3
calendar days before the date of the procurement
stage/activity, who shall be:
 Representative from COA
 Duly recognized private group in the sector or
discipline of the particular type of procurement
involved
 Non-Government Organization (NGO)
71
OBSERVERS
 BAC is mandated to invite Observers in all stages of the
procurement process, including post-qualification stage.
(See §13 of RA 9184)
 GPM enumerates the parties who are to conduct postqualification. Although Observers do not conduct postqualification of the bidder, they are not precluded from
being invited and be present in the meeting. (NPM 052013)
72
OBSERVERS
Observers shall be allowed access to the following
documents upon their request, subject to signing of a
confidentiality agreement:
1. Minutes of BAC meetings;
2. Abstract of Bids;
3. Post-qualification summary report;
4. APP and related PPMP; and
5. Opened proposals
73
OBSERVERS
RESPONSIBILITIES:
1. Prepare report (jointly or separately) indicating their

2. Submit report to the PE and furnish a copy to the
GPPB and the Office of the Ombudsman/Resident
