Publication of Cost Calculation Booklet to Assist Participation in Public Contracts

Gangdong-gu Distributes Cost Calculation Booklets to Social and Women-Owned Enterprises... Practical Guide to Cost Estimation to Facilitate Public Contract Participation for Hopeful Businesses

[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Gangdong-gu (Mayor Lee Jeong-hoon) has produced and distributed a practical cost calculation booklet titled '2020 Practical Cost Calculation Guide for Contract Success' to facilitate the participation of hopeful enterprises such as social enterprises, women-owned businesses, disabled-owned businesses, social cooperatives, and village enterprises in public contracts within the region.

Gangdong-gu has been striving to operate a contract system reflecting social values, including establishing a growth foundation for socially disadvantaged enterprises, encouraging corporate social responsibility, and protecting workers' rights, to achieve fair economic revitalization throughout the entire public contract process.

However, due to numerous laws and subordinate regulations related to contract procedures and complex cost calculation methods, there have been cases where the relatively less competitive hopeful enterprises faced participation limitations and omissions of necessary procedural items, causing delays in the prompt execution of contract procedures.

Accordingly, Gangdong-gu published the 'The More You See, The Easier It Gets! 2020 Practical Cost Calculation Guide' to provide 273 hopeful enterprises in the region with information on cost calculation methods, contract-related laws, and fair and transparent contract procedures, thereby enhancing their capacity to participate in public contracts.

This practical cost calculation guide is simply and clearly organized with necessary information for public contracts, including ▲contract-related laws such as standards for bidding and contract execution for construction, services, and goods manufacturing and purchase ▲contract-related procedures ▲examples of cost calculation statement preparation ▲Gangdong-gu contract review procedures, making it convenient and easy to apply in actual contracts.

Lee Jeong-hoon, Mayor of Gangdong-gu, stated, “I hope this booklet serves as a communication medium between Gangdong-gu and enterprises, enabling transparent contract procedures and realizing prompt and fair contract administration.”
