Prescribing a Consultant's Performance Evaluation System (ConsPES) for Infrastructure Projects
Department Order No. 100-17, issued by the DPWH on August 4, 2017, establishes a revised Consultant's Performance Evaluation System (ConsPES) aimed at enhancing the evaluation of consultants involved in infrastructure projects. This updated system supersedes the previous Department Order No. 145, Series of 2016, and is designed to provide a consistent method for assessing consultant performance, incentivizing quality work, and aiding future consultant selections. The evaluation process involves various milestones, with performance ratings based on criteria such as quality, cost, and schedule adherence, applying to common consulting services like feasibility studies, detailed engineering design, and construction supervision. The ConsPES ratings will play a critical role in the shortlisting and evaluation of technical proposals for future contracts, ensuring accountability and continuous improvement among consultants.

Revised Consultant's Performance
A. Objectives of ConsPES
ConsPES seeks to achieve the following objectives:
1. To set an objective and consistent method to evaluate, measure, and rate a Consultant's performance in DPWH projects.
2. To provide the DPWH with a means to incentivize Consultants to perform good work.
3. To provide the DPWH essential inputs in the process of selecting Consultants for its future consulting services project.
4. To give Consultants the opportunity to improve their job performance from one ConsPES rating period to another.
B. Guidelines
1. ConsPES shall be used mainly for the most common types of consulting services engaged by the DPWH — Feasibility Study (FS), Detailed Engineering Design (DED), and Construction Supervision (CS). For other types of consulting services — e.g., preparation of Master Plan, specialized technical jobs such as geotechnical investigations, traffic surveys, parcellary surveys, and institutional capacity development — the Procurement Service (PrS) through its Consulting Services Division (PrS-CSD) — shall customize ConsPES to fit the specific requirements of those services, upon request of the concerned Implementing Unit (IU).
2. The evaluation and rating of a consultant's performance, using ConsPES, shall be done by a ConsPES Team to be formed by the Director of the PrS, with members from the following offices to be designated by their respective heads of office, on a project-to-project basis, depending on the type of consulting services involved:
|
FS |
DED |
CS |
|
PrS-CSD |
PrS-CSD |
PrS-CSD |
|
Planning Service-Project Preparation Division (PS-PPD) |
Bureau of Design (BOD) |
Concerned Cluster of Unified Project Management Office (UPMO) |
|
BOD |
Bureau of Construction (BOC) |
BOC |
|
|
|
|
3. The evaluation of the consultant's performance, through ConsPES, shall be carried out upon reaching the following milestones using the criteria given in ANNEX A:
a. 50% of contract period
b. 100% of contract period
4. The IU shall assign the corresponding points for each activity and/or deliverable required in the Terms of Reference (TOR).
5. The IU concerned shall transmit the Consultant's deliverables to the following specialized offices, for review/evaluation of the specific aspects pertaining to their offices:
|

6. For each consultant's deliverable (except for CS), the specialized offices responsible for reviewing/evaluating the deliverable shall determine whether the defects/deficiencies in the deliverable are major or minor based on their respective checklists. Only one staff from the specialized office concerned shall be assigned to review/evaluate a particular (or a specific aspect of) deliverable throughout the entire contract period. The Director of the concerned specialized office shall synthesize the results of its evaluation of each deliverable using the form in ANNEX B (Summary of Findings) and submit this to the PrS-CSD. In addition, the IU must furnish the PrS-CSD with the exchange of communication/correspondences (e.g., DPWH to Consultant vice-versa, DPWH office to another DPWH office, and the like).
7. For FS and DED, based on the Summaries of Findings for each deliverable submitted by the concerned specialized offices, the ConsPES Team shall evaluate and rate the performance of the consultant using the criteria in ANNEX A. AScHCD
8. The ConsPES Team shall prepare the corresponding Intermediate Evaluation Report (IER) indicating its performance rating using the form in ANNEX C and submit it to the Director of the PrS for review and notation. The IER shall be submitted on the following milestones with their respective weights:
|
IER No. |
Milestone |
Weight |
|
1 |
50% of contract period |
50% |
|
2 |
100% of contract period |
50% |
9. Upon completion of the consulting services, the ConsPES Team shall compute the final performance rating of the consultant, which is the sum of the weighted ratings obtained in the two evaluation periods. The Team shall then submit its Final Evaluation Report (FER) using the form in ANNEX D to the PrS Director for review.
10. The PrS Director shall recommend the approval of FER to the approving authority concerned.
11. Prior to the approval of the FER, the PrS-CSD shall provide a copy of FER to the consultant concerned for his information. If requested by the consultant within five (5) calendar days from the date of receipt of the FER, the ConsPES Team shall discuss with the consultant the said report.
12. The PrS-CSD shall maintain a ConsPES database which shall include, among other things, the findings and performance ratings of the consultants evaluated.
13. The latest ConsPES rating of the Consultant shall be used by the BAC as an input in the shortlisting and evaluation of technical proposal of the Consultant for the next bidding. The Consultant will be rated in two (2) phases as shown on the table below:
|
Consultant being rated |
Phase 1 Rating |
Phase 2 Rating |
|
FS Consultant |
Based on completed FS |
Based on implemented FS*, done by DED Consultant/IU (not necessarily the FS Consultant) |
|
DED Consultant |
Based on completed DED |
Based on implemented DED*, supervised by the CS Consultant/IU (not necessarily the DED Consultant) |
|
CS Consultant |
Based on completed CS |
Based on the findings of the IU and ConsPES Team during the Defects Liability Period (DLP) |
|
* provided the scope of works is the same, otherwise use the Phase 1 rating |
14. The latest ConsPES Rating to be used in the succeeding biddings shall be the Phase 2 rating of the Consultant.
15. All the firms in a joint venture or association shall be given the same ConsPES rating in a particular contract.
16. The ConsPES Rating of a consultant in a packaged contract, i.e., a contract with multiple projects awarded to a single consultant, shall be computed by obtaining the weighted (according to cost) average of its performance ratings in all projects in the contract.
C. Basic Criteria and Weights by Type of Consulting Services
ConsPES shall use the following basic criteria, with their corresponding weights, for the common types of consulting services — Feasibility Study, Detailed Engineering Design, and Construction Supervision:

NOTES:
*Phase 2 Evaluation
If the IU, together with the DED Consultant, finds additional errors and discrepancies in the FS output during the DED phase (Phase 2), this criteria (Indicator A of 1.1) shall also be used to compute the Phase 2 rating of the FS Consultant. The same rating in Phase 1 shall be applied for other criteria.
**Major FS Errors/Deficiencies:
— Use of "table" survey instead of actual field survey (e.g., traffic, socio-economic, road and river profile/cross-section surveys).
— Use of wrong benchmarks, coordinates.
— Use of inadequate/inappropriate assumptions (e.g., traffic parameters/adjustments factors, VOC, growth rates).
— Errors in geotechnical investigation such as inadequate spacing and depth of boreholes. AcICHD
— Wrong preliminary design analysis on the main frame that will affect the structural integrity of the project (e.g., seismic coefficient, design flood level/return period).
— Inadequate preliminary design data used in structural analysis (e.g., thickness, materials).
— Inadequate value engineering to determine the most cost-effective design.
— Non-compliance with the major environmental requirements for environmentally critical projects and projects in environmentally critical areas.
— Inappropriate cost estimate of right of way acquisition.
— Other major FS errors/deficiencies, as may be added by PS, depending on the project.
FS errors/deficiencies not stated above are considered minor FS errors/deficiencies.
***Possible adverse comments of DPWH on Consultant's evaluation of alternatives:
— Failure of the Consultant to meet the minimum number of proposed alternative schemes as per TOR requirement.
— Major omission of a potential cost-effective alternative.
— Inadequate economic cost-benefit analysis to determine the most cost-effective scheme.
— Non-consideration of possible conflict with other ongoing government infrastructure projects.
— Use of secondary traffic data in traffic analyses.
— No reference/s cited for the report on the profiles of the location of the subject project.
— Other adverse comments, as may be added by PS, depending on the project.

*Phase 2 Evaluation
If the IU, together with the CS Consultant, finds additional errors and discrepancies in the DED output during the CS phase (Phase 2), this criteria (Indicator A of 1.1) shall also be used to compute the Phase 2 rating of the DED Consultant. The same rating in Phase 1 shall be applied for other criteria.
**Major DED Errors/Deficiencies:
— Use of table survey instead of actual field survey.
— Use of wrong benchmarks, coordinates, topographical data, mean sea level elevation.
— Errors in geotechnical investigation, such as inadequate spacing and depth of boreholes, lack of understanding of subsurface condition.
— Wrong design analysis on the main frame that will affect structural integrity of the project (e.g., seismic coefficient, design flood return period, maximum experienced flood elevation).
— Inadequate design data used in structural analysis (e.g., thickness, materials).
— Inappropriate value engineering to determine the most cost-effective design.
— Non-consideration of socio-political issues — e.g., historical landmarks, densely populated area — resulting in non-implementation or major realignment/revision of project.
— Other major DED errors/deficiencies, as may be added by BOD, depending on the project.
DED errors/deficiencies not stated above are considered minor DED errors/deficiencies.
