The procurement procedure was launched in July 2008 with the publication of the tender notice in SEAP no. 59229/23.07.2008 and in OJEU no. 2008/S143-192243/25.07.2008.Closing date for receipt of completed tenders was 16.07.2008. Challenges against the tender documentation were then made by OVE ARUP & PARTNERS Ltd. (London), based in Bucharest and SC SEPTEMBRIE CONSULTING SRL with headquarters in Bucharest. By Decision no. 4153/197C10/3891,3967 dated 10.09.2008, CNSC ruled to cancel the open tender procedure used.
After revision of the tender documentation by CES Consulting Engineers Salzgitter GmbH (general designer) and SC ECOAQUA SA, the tender procedure was relaunched with the publication in SEAP no. 66905/23.10.2008 and in OJEU no.2008/S208-276949/25.10.2008, with a closing date of 15.12.2008. Tenders were duly opened and 5 offers were received. After a proper evaluation, the winning tenderer was announced as HILL INTERNATIONALSA & HILL ROMANIA SRL, with a tender amount of 11,056,234, 57 lei, excluding VAT. On 30.01.2009, a challenge was made by MVV Decon GmbH & INOCSA INGENIERIA SL, against the method of selection of the winning tenderer and against the notification of the outcome. By Decision no. 590/C9/319/10.02.2009, CNSC upheld the challenge and ordered the annulation of the evaluation report and the notification of the result. The tender evaluation committee then remade both the evaluation report and the notification of the result, detailing the scoring criteria and the scoring achieved by each tenderer. The result was then notified to all tenderers and a new deadline was established for the conclusion of the contract with the winning tenderer, HILL INTERNATIONAL SA & HILL ROMANIA SRL.
