“Until now we are getting bidders’ request to extend the time, but we cannot already because we’re four months behind.”

The Philippines expects to award O&M contracts next month.

The World Bank’s private lending division International Finance (IFC) is serving as lead transaction adviser to BCDA for the bidding process for the Clark International Airport project.

BCDA business development and operations senior vice-president Joshua Bingcan was quoted by manilatimes.net as saying: “Until now we are getting bidders’ request to extend the time, but we cannot already because we’re four months behind. The original date of submission is July and now it’s already November.”

Once the contract is awarded, the O&M Concessionaire will be required to finance, design and complete all fitouts for existing and new passenger terminals.

The online publication reported that the contract will last for a term of 25 years.

BCDA expects to open the airport in the first half of 2020.
