Simplification of Cultural Heritage Repair Construction Bidding... Public Procurement Service "Omission of Qualification Review Document Submission"

[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] The bidding process for cultural heritage repair works will be simplified. This reflects the increased demands from the industry to streamline the previously complicated bidding procedures.

The Public Procurement Service announced on the 22nd that starting from the 6th of next month, the submission of qualification review documents for cultural heritage repair works will be waived.

This became possible by linking the Public Procurement Service’s Nara Marketplace with the Cultural Heritage Repair Association’s Comprehensive Information System for Cultural Heritage Repair.

With the establishment of this information system, more than 3,500 bidders annually for cultural heritage repair works will no longer need to submit separate review documents, enabling a reduction of approximately 200 million KRW in bidding costs.

Additionally, the Public Procurement Service expects to improve work efficiency by shortening the review period.

Baek Seung-bo, Director of the Facility Project Bureau at the Public Procurement Service, stated, “With this system in place, we expect cultural heritage repair companies to participate in bidding more easily and conveniently,” and added, “The Public Procurement Service will continue to strive to resolve inconveniences faced by companies participating in facility construction bids.”
