Public works tender for construction of Al‑Bakri Green Girls’ School in Hebron
The input text concerns a Belgian‑law public works contract launched by Enabel (the Belgian development agency) for the construction of the Al‑Bakri Green Public Girls’ School in Hebron, Palestine.
The documents apply Belgian public procurement rules (Law of 17 June 2016 and Royal Decree of 18 April 2017) to a project implemented in the West Bank, with specific tax and evaluation rules for tenderers registered in Palestine, Israel, or internationally.
The point of view is that of a Belgian contracting authority procuring construction services in Palestine, with references to local Palestinian regulations (e.g.
The tender sets out detailed data to be included in the bid, such as mandatory use of specific forms: Identification form, List of subcontractors, Annual turnover, Tender form – Prices, Proposed personnel, Similar assignments/references, Declaration on honour on exclusion grounds, Integrity Statement, and the European Single Procurement Document (ESPD).
The ESPD is compulsory and its absence is explicitly defined as a “substantial irregularity” making the tender void.
Where capacity of other entities or subcontractors is relied upon, separate ESPDs and written commitments are required for each such entity.
In case of a group of economic operators (association/joint venture), each member must provide its own identification form, exclusion declaration, statutes/powers of attorney, association agreement naming the lead entity, and ESPD.
Qualitative selection criteria cover aptitude to exercise the professional activity (official registration), economic and financial capacity (such as a minimum annual turnover of EUR 4 million, which can be met collectively in an association, with fixed exchange rates for turnover calculation), and technical and professional aptitude (such as staff qualifications including a Green Building Expert, and references for similar executed projects over a defined reference period corrected via Errata).
Tenderers must attach all documents requested in the Selection file and those needed for award criteria application, and the contracting authority may directly obtain certain official data for Belgian tenderers via Telemarc, except criminal record extracts.
Insurance and performance bond requirements are listed under “Financial guarantees”, and the contractor must demonstrate financial solvency and carry appropriate insurance, though detailed sums are defined elsewhere in the specifications.
The scope of the contract is a single, non‑divided works contract for the construction of the Al‑Bakri Green Girls’ School, CPV 45214200‑2, at Block 34425, Al‑Sha’ba area, Parcel 232 in Hebron, on land owned by Hebron Municipality (approx. 6,160 m²).
The contract consists of all items in the Tender form – Prices and Annex 1 Bill of Quantities; it is not split into lots and partial bidding is not allowed.

It is a price‑schedule contract where only unit prices are fixed and the amount payable results from applying unit prices to quantities actually performed, such as those later determined in order forms.
Presumed quantities in the price form are indicative only.
The duration is 15 months from award notification; actual performance starts from the date set in an order form, and the contract may not be renewed.
All prices must be quoted in EUR excluding VAT, with local tax regime applicable; evaluation methodology distinguishes tenderers registered in Palestine (prices evaluated without VAT) and Israel (prices evaluated including VAT), and this rule has been clarified and slightly expanded by Q&A and modifications.
Award criteria are purely price‑based: the sole criterion is “Price” with a weight of 100%, using a formula such as Points for tender A = (amount of lowest tender × 100) / amount of tender A. Only regular tenders from bidders that pass qualitative selection are compared.
Regularity checks identify substantial irregularities, such as failure to comply with mandatory legal provisions, failure to meet minimum or explicitly “substantial” requirements, or failure to submit the ESPD, and even accumulation of non‑substantial irregularities can render a tender void.
The contracting authority may decide not to award the contract or to restart the procedure.
The contract is deemed concluded upon notification of award; contract documents comprise the tender specifications and annexes, the approved tender, the registered award letter, and any later signed amendments.
Risks and special conditions are extensively addressed.
The tender validity period is 90 days from submission deadline.
No bid bond is required, but a performance bond and insurances apply under Articles 24–33 of the GIR.
The contract forbids variants and options.
Subcontracting is allowed under the selection rules, but subcontractors whose capacity is used are subject to exclusion checks and must provide commitments and ESPDs; in certain cases the contracting authority may directly replace the main contractor by its subcontractor(s) or the second‑ranked tenderer via an amendment, without a new procedure, in case of termination or ex officio measures.
Penalties are detailed, such as automatic daily penalties of EUR 250 per day for non‑delivery of documents, absence from site/coordination meetings, delayed execution of orders, unapproved changes of key staff, absence of required engineers/full‑time staff, or failure to comply with labour, safety, and field office requirements.
Other sanctions include exclusion from Enabel contracts for up to three years.
Strict technical control, preliminary and ex‑post inspections, mandatory documentation and “as built” plans, EDGE and PHGBC documentation, and refusal of non‑compliant materials are all included as performance risks.
The procedure includes a planned site visit (optional but highly encouraged) on 21 July 2026, and an online information session on 22 July 2026.
Where discrepancies exist between earlier statements and later Errata or Q&A answers (such as about greywater, GFA, reference periods for similar assignments), the latest Errata/Q&A and “Modified – Rev” versions of the tender documents prevail, and tenderers are explicitly instructed to submit their offers after reading and incorporating all published corrections.
Only the contracting authority's tender documents are binding. As of: 25/10/2026
