INTRODUCTION
In the fields of architecture and civil engineering, construction is a process that consists
of the building or assembling of infrastructure. Far from being a single activity, large scale
3
REPORT A: PreContract
construction is a feat of human multitasking. Normally, the job is managed by a project manager,
and supervised by a construction manager, design engineer, construction engineer, or project
architect. There is two stages in the construction which is pre-contract and post-contract.
Pre-Contract stage is the stage that consist the Inception Stage until the Tender Action
Stage. In every stage, the Quantity Surveyors will play their important roles to make sure that
the entire requirement needed in preparing the tender document has been done. The stages
that involved in the pre-contract stage are:

Hereby this report will explain the stage of Pre-Contract. One of the projects from
Quantity Surveying Firm AAJ ASSOCIATES SDN. BHD. has been choose as the case study
and will be discuss in detail explanation. The Pre-Contract stages are the first stage in the
project construction, which it client will appoint Design Team which stands such as Architect,
Quantity Surveyor, Engineer (Civil Structure and Mechanical Electrical), Land Surveyor, Interior
Designer, Landscape Architect and etc. This team normally takes Architect as a leader but in
this project client has appointed a project manager to lead this team and this process purpose to
make sure the planning more successful to get the best design that follow which clients need.
REPORT A: PreContract
This report will tell us the various actions that the consultant especially what us, as QS
Consultants have to do and we will have to respond with others in the Design Team in the pre
contract stage. It is our responsibility to make sure that the project will be hand over to the right
and qualified contractor as to meet the QS principle which is value for money. Then, the
contractor will carry out the job that has been awarded to them with responsibility. The roles of
Quantity Surveyor are very important in pre-contract stage because the professional services
offered, cover all the aspects under the contract management scope and the preparation of
project cost estimate.
Id choose the below project because I involve in the bill of quantities preparation and
tendering process until contractor was appointed on my practical training, thus it will allow me to
put more of my understanding into the explanation. On the time this report are write, the
construction upon started.

29
REPORT A: PreContract
Apart of that this preliminary cost also to know reasonable cost as overall this project
and show the explanation to the client about overall cost in this project. In process of
preparation the preliminary cost estimate have many methods which can be used.
Data Requirements
For this method, data which needs to be use is as below:
i.
ii.
iii.
Current Price Rate or market Price which normally takes it from already priced material
list or some analyzed reasonable price rate.
30
REPORT A: PreContract
Information or data that found in progress in prepared for this cost estimate.
ii.
iii.
APPROXIMATE ESTIMATE
This method normally used to prepare the preliminary cost estimate. The method is the
easy than others because it based on ordinary procedures in prepared it and price list took.
The approximate quantities method was chosen because the estimate prepared be
accurate. It is also an alternative or a short-cut in preparing and to price the list of the quantities.
As a credit to those alternatives, this method is using the gross quantity and need more
assumptions to get the quantities. However this method also needs the gross. So, in order to
get gross layout, QS need a drawing and specification made by the architect and also QS as
consultant must know current rate recently.
The advantages of this method of preparing the preliminaries estimate are as shown
below: i)
Each change in the design and the specification can be made to coordinate the
estimate.
ii)
In preparing the preliminaries estimate, all estimates are dividing into all
elements or items and this can help the architect to design the building.
iii)
This is the best method in preparing the preliminaries estimate if all the important
information is obtained especially drawing.
31
REPORT A: PreContract
Knowledge and explored in knowing current rate and all the information needed.
The bill of quantities is prepared the same way as the usual bill of quantities was
prepared. But in the approximate quantities method, the brief way is practice.
ii)
Usually, this brief way contains all the measurement of the composite item that is
using one dimension set for couple of item. Price for this composite item is made
based on the current price and the allotment has to be made for all the items that
been measured.
iii)
The measurement is made by disregard all the small items, laps and deduction
only be made to the big void only.
Sketch drawing, specification and current price for the quantities is important data to be
used in this method.
INTRODUCTION
Tender's document which is done it a document by generally containing data regarding
project those implemented. Document tender consist of several main parts that need leak by
the contractor as information to enter tender. It is important as parts of current reference
contract perform and its content is differ and depending to nature of the contract, method
tendering, project requirements and others. This document tender will lay better to choose
tendered and suitably to carry out construction project.
In this project, the drawing and specifications will become references to all party. When
the construction becomes any discrepancy or problems, we should contract document which
contain bill of quantities. Usually they will be remeasurement upon variance of work or any
quantities that been argue.
The complete tender document must be following the basic requirement below:
32
REPORT A: PreContract
All the provision of the Tender Document must be approved by the client first. It must
consist with the latest basic and fulfill the latest policies from the government and client.
Every request which has been stated must reasonable and credible.
The Tender Document must state that every clients desire and there must be no
discrepancies.
The Tender Document which has been prepared must be fair to both sides which are the
client and other parties.
The provision in the Tender Document must be a basic to a contract which can be done
by a certain contractor.
The tender was prepared using Bill of Quantities (With Quantities). Taking off should be
done referring to drawing that are provided by architect and engineer. All information would
be important to tender or contractor to ensure them enable it make operational plan,
estimating cost work and assess the risk.
THE PURPOSE OF PREPARATION OF TENDER DOCUMENT
The main purpose of preparation of tender document is as the basic to provide contract
document after accepted offer by contractor. By such, document tender need to be prepared
completely. Any mistake and contradiction will arise problem to client especially involve
client financial allocation. To make sure a tender document filled complete, document tender
must be:
All the consultants will translate and represent the entire clients desire in form of print
drawing (writing) so that it is easy for the other party which makes the offer to
understand.
All current requirements and rule proposed by the government or involved local council
must be obeyed that the document tender stated valid legal point of view.
Explain all directive and rules that need complied by the party contractor in conducting
construction work stated.
33

need complied by contractor.
34
REPORT A: PreContract
35
REPORT A: PreContract
A Good tender document must fulfill all characteristics below: Must be reasonable, which means that it can be carry out by the contractor. It was
irrational for the contractor to be asked to do something, which is not possible to be
done, either technically or economically.
All the work that need to be carried out must be fulfill all t he desire of the owner in all the
matter such as design, construction and also the specification.
Must be fair between for all parties that involved. Which it means all the risks are not
only on the contractors side.
36

No difference between all the sections in the tender document.
INSTRUCTIONS TO TENDERERS
This section stated at the first part of document because its content is important to
explain the instructions which must be follow and carry out by tenderers when enter
it.
All the tenderers must follow the instruction in this part to avoid from making
mistakes which it will affect the submitted tender document from tenderers will be
rejected.
For example the instruction in this part which it the tenderers must follow are using
the black ink during pricing the tender and complete the form, describe the place,
time and table tender document.
37
REPORT A: PreContract
CONDITIONS OF TENDERING
This part need tenderers follow the conditions of tender in a project and tie the
tenderer which chosen and if any breach happen this conditions will be the
reference.
Tenderers will signature this part with the witness and confirmatory chop from their
company.
Apart of that the content also tie with the tender validity period..
FORM OF TENDER
This part must be clearly to be understood and fill by tender.
Tenderer will state the price at this form.
This form must be fill by tenderer if tenderer agree with its content.if this form not fill
by tenderer as a result that tenderer will FAIL.
In this form the contractor have to stated the amount that they been offer for the
project in Ringgit Malaysia and also the construction period that they need.
The contractor also will fill in their name, their company name and all the company
detail. After all been completed, they will sign the form to show that all the
information that been given was true.
The signature of the contractor will brought them tied to the contract with entire offer,
such as the amount of contract and contract period.
PRELIMINARIES
Stated as Section A, Preliminaries act as a part in the tender document which
explain about all subjects that are not to be measure and stated in the bills of
quantity but this subject are very important in the construction to make sure that the
construction will perfectly done.
All these subjects are incriminating cost to the contractor. Preliminaries explained all
about the temporary works, and also the entire contractors desire and in this part the
contractor are given the permission to price all the subjects that are stated.
38
REPORT A: PreContract
If the contractor chosen not to priced anything in this part, it will be defined that it was
priced in any part in the tender document. As example, there are shop drawings,
overtime payments, site office, clauses, maintainance, water and lighting, insurance
etc are stated in this preliminaries part.
SPECIFICATION
This item can be defined as a detail works that agreed and needs to be carried out
by contractor during the construction stage without breach it. It also contains all the
details which were not to be stated in the drawing and also in the bills of quantity. For
example there are the detail of the material especially about the quality, types of the
material, method of work and also the quality of the work that needed in this project.
This like a guideline to explain in more detail to the contractor, easier to do price their
work before tender and their work after tender.
BILL OF QUANTITIES
A Bills of Quantities is a comprehensive document which it prepared by QS.
Quantities and material that measured followed the SMM2 which it agreed from all
consultants. Detail about all the matters in the project especially the materials, works
complete with their quantities and compile in the tender document by its elements.
Contractor will be easy during process to pricing all the elements.
All the materials, specifications and also the works in a few of description according
to the work on how the project to be construct, starting from the works below lowest
floor finish until the top of the building roof. The contractor only has to fill in their rate
in the provided space and grouped it all in summary section and tender form will be
proceeding.
DRAWING
39
REPORT A: PreContract
The most important document in contract is drawing especially for the contract which
it based on the drawing and specification. For this project, to get more description
and projects requirement, drawing will be referred because other matters have been
included in the bill of quantities. All the different kind of drawing for the project such
as key-plan; floor plan, section and also the elevation for the building illustrate by an
architect and structural drawing from the engineer are compiled within the tender
document.
OTHERS/APPENDICES
Apart of that other part which compile in Tender Document are Preambles to all
trades in section C, general summary of all sections in external works, provisional
sums, schedule of finishes, schedule of sanitary appliances, schedule of day work
rates, schedule of plant and machinery, employees registration form, bank
guarantee form for earnest money and performance bond, schedule of contractors
organization and registration and others which it relevant. A good Tender Document
is complete with all section that explained before. If one parts a missing that Tender
Document a not complete and not in good condition for Tendering Process.
8. TENDER REPORT
Tender Report is an analysis report that been prepared by the QS about the tender
which submitted by the tenderers. This report prepared to give suggestion to the client about
the best contractor for the project through by evaluates the submitted tender document in
various aspects especially in perfectly complete by the tenderer.
The tender report been prepared after the date of tender is expired or been closed. The
process to choose the best contractor will more easily for the client. Contractor that is
qualified the best among the qualified can execute the construction for the project in such
perfect way. QSs opinion or suggestion about the best contractor is important with choosing
the best tenderer to be appointed for the project. All the suggestion must be based on all
requirements of factors that have to consider such as the tender price, experience of the
tenderers, current work performance and etc.

41
REPORT A: PreContract
The Quantity Surveyor must determine the suitable types of the tender that would be
used in the construction based on the above factors. There are several types of tender are
usually used, which are:
i.
Open tendering
ii.
Selective tendering
iii.
Negotiation tendering
iv.
Serial tendering
v.
Fast-tracking
Type of tender use for this project is open tendering. If the tenderer want to enter this
tender, they must pay Cash deposit / Postal Order / Money Order / Bank Draft on name of
Chairman of ECERDC as Tender Document fee payment.
Open Tender
Any contractor, who meets the specified requirements to carry out a proposed
construction projects, may submit a tender for the work.
The tenders can be invited through the advertisements in the technical, trade, and or
general press.
Advertising will give outline details of the work, its scale, programmed, the form of
contract and other relevant matters.
Commonly used by governments agencies to ensure the accountability of public funds.
REPORT A: PreContract
Allowing the tender list to be made without bias. This is the aspect that attracts local
authorities who because of public accountability, wish to show demonstrate that they
obtain the best bargain possible for public money and have shown no favoritism in
selecting contractors.
Attracts a large number of tender and the bids are expected to be more competitive.
This method allows a new contractor the chances of tendering for work.

understand that the Pre contract stage is considered the most vital stage in the construction
of a project. Most of the consultant's involvement revolves within this stage.

REPORT A: PreContract
Among the analysis that can be made during the pre contract stages are:
Communication between parties is essence to make sure this stage going smoothly
It is vital that the preliminary estimate submitted by the quantity surveyor to the client
is as accurate as possible and is reliable. This can evade further costing problems
which most projects face.
Tender document must be carefully done to make sure that no errors such as paging
and spelling errors. A minor mistake will defect the contract will be not liable.
The type of tender and contract that is chosen must be suitable to the clients needs.
This will affect cost effectiveness to meet the client requirement.
A Quantity Surveyor must ensure that all the clients needs are fulfill in the tender
document. The contractor will follow the tender document to satisfy the client. That is
why it is important that the tender document is done with perfection and precision.
During the process of tendering, the chosen tenderer must be as qualified in their
workmanship and punctual in completing the project.
