| 2 | 2024-10-25 | Dear Procurement Committee 5 - IHSS, MoH, Hope this email finds you well. This XXX, I am writing to you on behalf of my company XXX. We have 2 questions regarding Procurement of PET CT, please kindly clarify, thank you. 1) If the product we are going to quote / submit has already been registered in Indonesia, but the bidder / JV member is not the license(NIE) holder, can goods be imported directly through the leading party of the JV rather than through the license holder? If not, it seems it is a must that the bidder has to form a JV with the license holder (the local company) , just for the tax exemption, Am I correct? |
1) A mechanism has been prepared to handle import taxes, VAT, and other customs duties under the current project. You may imported directly or JV with the license holder. In this case the successful bidder must possess an NIE from the country of origin where the product is manufactured before signing contract. Therefore, the NIE and contracts experience documents, even if they are official documents in Bahasa Indonesia, should be translated into English to comply with this requirement. | Bidding Procedure | Procurement Regulations | Eligible Bidders (including joint venture) |

We have one question regarding performance security. Please kindly clarify and , thank you. 1) on the page 42 of the tender document, it says "If the Performance Security furnished by the successful Bidder is in the form of a bond, it shall be issued by a bonding or insurance company that has been determined by the successful Bidder to be acceptable to the Purchaser. A foreign institution providing a bond shall have a correspondent financial institution located in the Purchaser’s Country." The offering currency of our bid will be Chinese Yuan, and if we are awarded the contract, we would like to provide the Purchaser with the performance guarantee issued by a bank located in China, which will be unconditional and using the form as provided in the tender documents. Is it acceptable? Or will the Purchaser require the issuing bank located in China must have a correspondent bank or the affiliated bank in Indonesia to issue the counter guarantee? The reason why we ask this question is because the counter guarantee Thank you. Thank you for your attention, looking forward to your reply. Best Regards, |
Regarding your question on the performance security and the acceptance of a guarantee issued by a bank located in China, we would like to clarify the following: The Performance Security, if provided in the form of a bond, must be issued by a bank that is acceptable to the Purchaser. This includes bonds issued by foreign institutions. In the case of a bond being issued by a foreign institution (such as a Chinese bank), the institution must have a correspondent financial institution located within the Purchaser's country (Indonesia). This is to ensure that the performance security can be effectively enforced if needed. Therefore, for the performance guarantee to be acceptable, the bank issuing the bond in China must have a correspondent or affiliated bank in Indonesia. This will allow for smooth processing and fulfillment of the security requirements. We hope this clarifies your query. Should you need further information, please do not hesitate to reach out |

| 8 | 2024-11-04 | 1. Manufacturing Experience in RFB Procurement of CT Simulator Section III Evaluation and Qualification Criteria (page 55): Criteria: Manufacturing experience and Technical Capacity: For the items under the Contract that the bidder is a manufacturer, the Bidder shall furnish documentary evidence to demonstrate that: (i) it has manufactured CT Simulator for at least seven (7) years, prior to the bid submission deadline; and (ii) its annual production capacity of CT Simulator for each of the last seven (7) years prior to the bid submission deadline, is at least 50% the quantities specified under each lot. Remarks: To ensure the tender openness towards larger range of manufacturers, Bidder would like to raise that the technologies represent specialized segments within the broader category of CT scanners. The existing requirements may inadvertently limit participation in the tender process, effectively narrowing the pool of potential bidders to a few large companies, such as XXXX. We believe that revising these requirements to consider the unique expertise and capabilities of smaller, specialized manufacturers could foster a more competitive bidding environment. This would not only encourage innovation but also potentially result in more favorable pricing and options for the Ministry. We respectfully urge the Ministry to reconsider the manufacturing experience criteria for this niche market, allowing a broader range of qualified manufacturers to participate. This approach could enhance the overall quality and availability of advanced imaging technologies within Indonesia. |

| 10 | 2024-11-04 | I've read and study the Technical Specification of Procurement of PET CT, I don't see any specific request for digital or analog PET-CT. With the budget that MoH have for PET-CT, USD 5.239.267/Unit, MoH should ask for Digital PET-CT with SiPM Detector, compared to analog PET-CT which is using the technology from more than 10 years ago. It would be more reasonable if MoH requested digital PET-CT, considering the budget MoH have. |
Thank you for your feedback. MoH is considering your feedback to forthcoming amendment. | Other | Related to Proc Plan and Packaging Arr. | Unrelated Questions |
| 11 | 2024-11-05 | Dear Procurement Committee, We have some requests for the Technical part of Specifications. Our request is to change some technical requirements in the Technical Specification for Procurement of PET CT. RFB No: KS.01.02/A.VI/6113/2024 To this request, please consider to change as below (Or please check the "pdf" attachment): Please add the following spec: Technical Specifications – Row 33, Criteria : Type of the PET detectors Suggestion : SiPM Remarks : Digital PET/CT is the main trend, all the new installations of PET/CT in Europe, USA and China are digital ones. The most significant symbol of digital PET/CT is the SiPM. Digital PET/CT brings higher image quality, faster scanning and lower dose for patients, which means we can improve our own capability of diagnosing and treating the cancer, more patients can cure themselves in our own country, no need to travel abroad, meanwhile, increase daily patient throughput, lower dose and operating cost can also help hospitals earn more money to strengthen ourselves. These benefit cannot be brought by dBGO Analog PET/CT. There are many papers compared digital and analog PET/CT, for example: For Image quality and lesion detection: Comparison of image quality and lesion detection between digital and analog PET/CT. European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 46(6), 1383 1390. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00259-019-4260-z For dose reduction: Digital PET/CT allows for shorter acquisition protocols or reduced radiopharmaceutical dose in [18F]-FDG PET/CT. Annals of nuclear medicine, 35(4), 485–492. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12149-021-01588-6 Moreover, at present, according to the budget of the ISDB project for nuclear medicine imaging products, it is enough to support Indonesia's nuclear medicine department to a higher level. We do not want the Ministry of Health to purchase analog technology products that are more than 10 years old. This is not good for the development of nuclear medicine in Indonesia, and will make Indonesia lag behind the global average level of nuclear medicine in the future. And this gap will become larger and larger Sincerely, |

| 14 | 2024-11-06 | Technical Specifications – Row 38 Criteria : Ring Diameter, cm ; Preferred; ≥ 80 cm Remarks: The PET Ring Diameter is an important parameter to bring the best system performance. NEMA sensitivity is greatly dependent on Ring diameter. The smaller the ring, the better NEMA sensitivity. Hence the Ring diameter should be less than 80cm to gain more benefit on system performance. Suggestion: Preferred; ≤ 80 cm |
Many thanks for this feedback. As this specification is rated criteria, the bidder can choose to comply or not. MoH will retain the current specification. NEMA sensitivity is a standard measurement that quantifies the ability of the PET scanner to detect radiation emitted from a known source (such as a patient injected with radioisotope). Other than ring diameter, its sensitivity is also dependent on the detector's technology/ configuration and scanner geometry. A larger ring diameter allows the PET-CT system to have larger detector which allows more radiation captured/detected per scan, leading to a greater axial field of view (FOV). This results in a higher NEMA sensitivity and overall higher PET scan performance |

| 31 | 2024-11-18 | Dear, Ministry of Health Attention: Procurement Committee 5 - IHSS, MoH (Procurement of PET CT) Address: Prof. Dr. Sujudi 14th Floor, Jl. H.R. Rasuna Said Blok X-5 Kav. 4-9 Jakarta 12950 Indonesia, Telephone: +62 21 52921482 Herewith we attach the clarification form our side, hopefully you could consider to change in order to make all bidders have the same chance to bid their equipment without any subjective perception to any brand model. Technical Spesification Row 128 Criteria : Vertical Movement Range, cm, Lowered to at least 55 cm, or lower, from the floor Remark : it is widely accepted that a minimum height of 62 cm can fully meet practical needs. The scanning bed with a minimum height of 62 cm has been extensively validated to successfully meet the needs of various patient groups, including those of different ages and physical conditions. A slightly higher minimum height reduces the need for frequent adjustments and bending by technicians, thereby minimizing fatigue and improving operational efficiency. The design of the 62 cm minimum height is based on a comprehensive consideration of operational convenience, equipment performance, and workflow efficiency: Scanning beds with a greater height range may reach 55 cm, but the descent process is more time-consuming and imposes additional demands on time management for technicians. In contrast, the 62 cm design meets routine clinical application requirements while effectively reducing unnecessary height adjustments and enhancing scanning efficiency. From the client’s perspective, the primary function of a scanning bed is to provide safe, precise, and efficient scanning support. The 62 cm design has shown no negative impact on patient experience or workflow in actual use. Instead, it reduces equipment complexity and operational redundancy, delivering a superior user experience for clients. In conclusion, the 62 cm minimum height design not only meets the technical requirements of the bidding process but also optimizes hospital workflows and improves overall efficiency. We kindly request that you reconsider the strict limitation on minimum height and recognize 62 cm as a reasonable and compliant design solution. Thank you for your understanding and support. We look forward to your positive response! Sincerely, |
Many thanks for this feedback. As this specification is mandatory, the bidder can choose to comply and describe. MoH will retain the current specification. The criteria of at least 55cm for the bed is to accommodate patient accessibility. This minimum height requirement is to assist wheelchair-bound/ handicapped patients to be transferred onto the bed with ease. |

| 32 | 2024-11-20 | Dear Sir/Madam, We are sorry for the confusion on the below clarification: Manufacturing Experience in RFB Procurement of PET CT Section III Evaluation and Qualification Criteria: Manufacturing experience and Technical Capacity: For the items under the Contract that the bidder is a manufacturer, the Bidder shall furnish documentary evidence to demonstrate that: (i) it has manufactured CT Simulator à this is supposed to be PET CT for at least seven (7) years, prior to the bid submission deadline; and (ii) its annual production capacity of PET CT for each of the last seven (7) years prior to the bid submission deadline, is at least 50% the quantities specified under each lot. To ensure the tender openness towards larger range of manufacturers, Bidder would like to raise that the technologies represent specialized segments within the broader category of CT scanners. The existing requirements may inadvertently limit participation in the tender process, effectively narrowing the pool of potential bidders to a few large companies, such as XXXX. We believe that revising these requirements to consider the unique expertise and capabilities of smaller, specialized manufacturers could foster a more competitive bidding environment. This would not only encourage innovation but also potentially result in more favorable pricing and options for the Ministry. We respectfully urge the Ministry to reconsider the manufacturing experience criteria for this niche market, allowing a broader range of qualified manufacturers to participate. This approach could enhance the overall quality and availability of advanced imaging technologies within Indonesia. Hopefully PC-5 will still able to provide clarification on the above request. Best regards, |
Many thanks for this feedback. The MoH will retain the current requirements outlined in the bidding document. Bidders are kindly requested to comply and provide the necessary items as per the specified requirements | Bidding Procedure | Evaluation Process | Specific Experience |
