THE COLLECTIONS FROM THE ISSUANCE OF PERTINENT DOCUMENTS RELATIVE TO

WHEREAS,
the Department of Foreign Affairs (Department) has launched the Machine
Readable Passports and Visas Project (Project) to upgrade the
processing and issuance of Philippine passports and visas in accordance
with standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO) for travel documents;
WHEREAS, the Project is proposed under the Build-Operate-Transfer
scheme;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Republic Act No. 7718, also known as the
Build-Operate-Transfer Law, the Department created a Pre-qualification,
Bids and Awards Committee (PBAC) to oversee the planning and
implementation of the Project;
WHEREAS, thirty-nine (39) project proponents responded to the
invitation to pre-qualify and bid and paid Php 100,000.00 each for the
pre-qualification documents;
WHEREAS, the PBAC has started issuing, for a non-refundable fee of Php
100,000.00, the Request-for-Proposals (RFPs) or bid documents to the 11
project proponents that pre-qualified;
WHEREAS, the PBAC continues to meet to discuss preparations for the
pre-bid conference, the mechanics for the technical and financial
evaluation of the bid proposals early next year, and other
administrative matters related to the Project;
WHEREAS, most, if not all, PBAC activities entail financial cost which
the regular budget of the Department could not accommodate given its

implementation of the Project, it is imperative that it be given
