BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA REPUBLIKA SRPSKA REPUBLIC ADMINISTRATION FOR GEODETIC AND PROPERTY AFFAIRS ADDENDUM NO. 1 to the Request for Expressions of Interest (REOI) Study and Analysis of Spatial Plans for All 64 Local Self-Government Units in Republika Srpska Project Geospatial Infrastructure and Valuation Enhancement Project – Additional Financing (GIVE AF) Procurement Method Consultant’s Qualifications Based Selection (CQS) Procurement Plan Ref. No. BA-RGARS-570618-CS-CQS Original REOI Issue Date 01 September 2026 Addendum Issue Date 4 September 2026 Purpose of this Addendum. This Addendum supplements the published REOI by making explicit the comparative evaluation and numerical scoring methodology that will be applied to Expressions of Interest. The substantive qualification requirements already disclosed in the REOI remain unchanged. 1. Amendment to Section 4 – Shortlisting Criteria Section 4 of the REOI is supplemented as follows: The evaluation will be conducted in two stages. Stage 1 – Minimum qualification requirements (Pass/Fail) Only Consultants that satisfy the minimum requirements below will proceed to comparative scoring: • Relevant experience: during the last three (3) years, calculated from the date of publication of the REOI, or from the date of registration if the firm has operated for a shorter period, the Consultant must have successfully completed at least one (1) contract of the same or similar nature and complexity, with a value of at least BAM 185,000 or the equivalent in another currency. • Definition of a similar assignment: an assignment involving analysis of geospatial data – spatial-planning documentation, cadastral data and/or topographic data – for the purposes of mass valuation of real estate or state cadastral systems. • Organizational and managerial capacity: the Consultant must demonstrate adequate organizational, technical and managerial capacity to implement the assignment across all 64 local self-government units within the four-month implementation period. A Consultant that does not satisfy the above minimum requirements will not be further evaluated. Stage 2 – Comparative numerical scoring Consultants that pass Stage 1 will be compared and ranked using the following scoring methodology: No. Evaluation criterion Scoring guidance Max. points 1 Core business and fields of expertise relevant to the assignment Assessment of the extent to which the Consultant’s demonstrated core business and institutional experience are directly relevant to geospatial, cadastral, spatial-planning and/or mass valuation assignments of comparable nature. The assessment is comparative and does not introduce an additional minimum eligibility threshold. 30 2 Qualifications and experience relevant to the assignment Assessment of the quality, relevance, depth and comparability of completed assignments demonstrated by the Consultant. Particular weight will be given to assignments involving analysis of spatial-planning, cadastral and/or topographic data for mass valuation purposes. Experience relating to state cadastral systems remains eligible in accordance with the published definition of a similar assignment, but will be assessed according to its actual relevance to the subject assignment. 60 3 Organizational, technical and managerial capacity of the firm Assessment of the demonstrated capacity to organize and manage the assignment within the required four-month period and across all 64 local self-government units, including the firm’s organizational approach, internal coordination capacity and availability of relevant technical disciplines at firm level. 10 TOTAL 100 2. Clarification on Relevant Experience The requirement for at least one qualifying similar contract remains a mandatory pass/fail requirement. Its purpose is to ensure that firms entering the comparative stage have demonstrated experience in assignments materially connected with the subject matter of the Study. In the comparative scoring stage, stronger and more directly relevant experience may receive a higher score, but no new minimum qualification requirement is introduced by this Addendum. For the avoidance of doubt, direct experience in using or analysing geospatial, spatial-planning, cadastral or topographic data for mass valuation purposes will be considered more directly relevant to the present assignment than experience limited to general cadastral-system work, while both remain within the published definition of a similar assignment. 3. Key Experts Key experts will not be evaluated at the Expression of Interest / shortlisting stage. The qualifications and experience of the proposed key experts will be considered only at the subsequent stage of the CQS process, in accordance with the Terms of Reference and the Request for Proposals. The anticipated key expert positions remain Team Leader, GIS Expert and Economist/Analyst. 4. Other Provisions All other provisions, requirements and conditions of the original REOI remain unchanged. This Addendum forms an integral part of the REOI and shall be read together with it. The deadline for submission of Expressions of Interest remains 16 September 2026 at 12:00 noon, local time in Banja Luka.
