As prescribed in Section 4.4 of the DOE DC 2023-06-0021, updates on the status of the Competitive Selection Process (CSP) will be posted on the CSP E-Portal, however as of the moment, it is still not available.
The CSP activities have progressed as scheduled, with the latest key milestones outlined below:
- March 25: The Invitation to Bid (ITB) was published.
- March 26: Commencement of the acceptance of Pre-Qualification requirements.
- April 7: Pre-Bid Conference held at Marina Seaview, Lapu-Lapu City.
- April 16: Clarificatory Conference successfully conducted, addressing issues related to the Power Supply Agreement (PSA) and other emerging concerns.
- May 17: Opening of Bids successfully conducted at 10:00 AM at Marina Seaview, Lapu-Lapu City.
The Opening of Bids was successfully held on May 17, 2025, at 10:00 AM at the same venue as the Pre-Bid Conference. Malita Power Inc. (MPI), FDC Misamis Power Corporation, and GNPower Kauswagan passed the initial review process except Panay Energy Development Corporation (PEDC) which did not submit the required pre-qualification documents. The three pre-qualified bidders will now undergo the Post Qualification Review, where their submitted documents will be extensively evaluated.
The Post Qualification Review will be conducted from May 19 to June 2, 2025 to ensure compliance with the Terms of Reference and procedural requirements before proceeding further in the selection process.
Despite the continued unavailability of the CSP E-Portal, updates will remain accessible through our official website to ensure transparency and keep all stakeholders informed.
