From Update Philippines (Sep 6): PH orders police helicopter from Bell Helicopter Textron



The Philippine National Police (PNP) is getting one unit of brand new rotary twin engine helicopter from Bell Helicopter Textron based in United States. This is after PNP chief Director General Ronald del Rosa signed the Notice of Award in June 2017.

The award to Bell Helicopter Textron has a contract price of Four Hundred Thirty-Five Million Seven Hundred Ninety-Seven Thousand Five Hundred Forty-Eight Pesos (PHP435,797,548.00), inclusive of taxes, duties, and other charges.

Airbus Helicopters Southeast Asia’s offer was declared as the lowest calculated bid but was post-disqualified due to its failure to comply with the documentary requirements stated in the Bidding Documents and Republic Act 9184, says in the recommendation submitted to General dela Rosa.

With the lowest calculated bidder disqualified, Bell Helicopter Textron’s offer, with second lowest calculated bid, was declared as the Lowest Calculated and Responsive Bid. Asian Aerospace Corporation’s offer was the third lowest calculated bid.
