What we provide

Solvix International provides procurement advisory services for construction, engineering, infrastructure, real estate, and capital projects that require a procurement process which is commercially robust, contractually coherent, and aligned with project delivery objectives. We advise clients from early route-to-market decisions through tender issue, bidder communications, evaluation, negotiation, award, and handover into delivery.

This service is designed for employers, developers, public and private owners, project sponsors, PMO teams, consultants, and funders who want clearer procurement strategy, better market engagement, more disciplined tender governance, and stronger decision support before contract award.

Common matters we support

Procurement decisions made early, such as packaging, contract form, and evaluation criteria, shape cost, risk, and dispute exposure for the rest of the project. We help clients make and record those decisions on a clear basis.

Procurement strategy:

Advice on route to market, packaging, and contract form for a new project or package.

Tender package review:

Review of tender documents, scope, and returnables before issue to the market.

Live tender administration:

Support with bidder queries, clarifications, and addenda during the tender period.

Bid evaluation:

Technical and commercial comparison of returned bids against the stated criteria.

Negotiation and award:

Support for preferred-bidder negotiation and the award recommendation.

Procurement governance:

Documenting the process and decisions for internal approval or audit.

METHODOLOGY

How we support procurement decisions

Our procurement advisory approach is structured to produce clearer tender strategy, stronger governance, and more defensible award decisions. The exact depth of review depends on project size, sector, procurement route, and the client’s internal decision-making framework, but the core sequence remains consistent.

Define procurement objectives, schedule constraints, packaging logic, market conditions, and risk profile.

Review or prepare tender information so bidders respond against a more coherent commercial and contractual framework.

Support live tender management through clarifications, addenda, query responses, and process discipline.

Evaluate bids for compliance, completeness, pricing structure, qualifications, exclusions, and comparability.

Assist with negotiation, preferred bidder selection, award recommendation, and transition into delivery governance.

ASSESSMENT APPROACH

How we structure a procurement review

The review follows the procurement cycle, from objectives and strategy through tender issue and evaluation to award, so that each decision is recorded and can be explained later.

1. Objectives and constraints:

confirm the project objectives, budget, programme constraints, and approval requirements.

2. Market and packaging review:

assess package boundaries, interfaces, and the likely response from the market.

3. Tender documentation review:

check scope, contract terms, pricing documents, and returnables for clarity and consistency.

4. Evaluation framework:

set or review the criteria, weightings, and scoring method before bids are received.

5. Bid assessment:

compare submissions for compliance, pricing basis, qualifications, and risk.

6. Recommendation and handover:

issue the award recommendation and the actions needed to move into contract.

INPUTS AND OUTPUTS

Records we typically review and what we deliver

Procurement advice is strongest when the project team provides a clear view of objectives, scope maturity, budget parameters, programme constraints, governance requirements, and the proposed contract framework. Where documentation is incomplete or still evolving, Solvix can identify the priority gaps that should be addressed before tender issue or award.

Typical inputs

  • Project brief, business case, and procurement objectives
  • Scope documents, design information, BoQ or pricing schedules
  • Draft tender package, return schedules, and evaluation criteria
  • Draft contract terms, amendments, and commercial schedules
  • Programme, budget benchmarks, and key risk assumptions
  • Bidder submissions, clarifications, and negotiation notes

Typical deliverables

  • Procurement strategy memo or route-to-market recommendation
  • Tender package review comments and improvement log
  • Bid evaluation matrix and commercial comparison summary
  • Risk commentary on qualifications, exclusions, and departures
  • Negotiation support note or shortlist recommendation
  • Award recommendation memorandum and handover action list
