PH doesn't have Saudi Arabia's financial power

let's pay a bit more, for faster results.
as i said, "don't our government consider the price of commuter hardship?"

October 5th, 2019 11:41 AM #404My questions is actually, in that 9 months timetable, are they also required to Bid it Out per procurement rules, even given the circumstances? Given that they are part owned by the government?
EDIT: You also have to take into consideration that the factories that may be producing these types of equipment have/might already have scheduling commitments per contracts they have with other companies that they committed deliveries to at X date. So it isn't something that you simply throw money at.
The 6months timetable I mentioned for the transformer, assumes max 2 months in custom's clearing. installation would have take at most 2 weeks on site. It was a 400V 1000KVA pad mounted transformer in that project site here in the Philippines. Final decision was to simply just rent from Meralco their "equivalent".

not cheapest
di naman yata bidding yan
it's ordering parts from a supplier abroad
the supplier sends a quotation stating price and lead time
we send a purchase order
even if we said "hey we're willing to pay double just cut down the lead time"
supplier probably replies "we'll see what we can do"

October 5th, 2019 11:46 AM #409in an old popular sci fi series,
the chief engineer always doubled his estimated downtime.
that way, he can deliver it in "half the time" and be labeled the "miracle worker".
OT.

i don't think those people managing spare parts sa LRT are forward looking
our govt is reactive not proactive
