CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Background
Tender bidding is a process by which one can seek prices and terms for a particular
project such as a construction job, to be carried out under a contract. The sealed offers
themselves, including company information, a project outline, and a price quote, are
known as tenders or bids.
Jabatan Kerja Raya Besut (after this known as JKR Besut) is responsible to be as
a medium to produce project tender inside the Besut district level. Not only they produce
tender but they also maintain and monitor the tender progress.
In this project, the tender online management system, using web-based application, is
used to help JKR Besut organization to be a medium of interaction between contractors
and JKR Besut, related to the tender issue. This is a very good communication method as
internet and web application has become a familiar tool for professional work in
management. Therefore. the tender bidding process can be managed more efficient using
this technology to replace the traditional process in term of management.

1.2 Problem Statement
·I 'hcrc are a few problems identified in the current traditional tender management system
IIpplied by JKR Besut organization. The problems are listed as follows:
1.2.1 Lack of proper information management
Contractors have to come to JKR department to seek the information of the tender
available as the tenders information is put on the notice board. The information also can
he sought online, but for tender for the Class F, where project are available to work on
inside Besut district level is hard to find via online. There is also information such as
news related to the contractors in Class F group from top government which is hard to
seek.
1.2.2 Traditional record keeping and paper-based application
Most of documentation related about tenders and contractors are being made and
applied using paper based (including printing version) and archived using files and
folders for record keeping. This traditional method are very much looks as want-to-be
replaced for a long term management goal as JKR Besut want to apply information
system technology to record the tenders and contractors information for future references
and used Furthermore, paper-based application methods disallow the information from
being updated and managed easily.
1.2.3 Tender bidding process
Tender bidding process require a lot of process and decision which require a
professional logical judgment and management. The process require a lot of processing
time and· a lot of protocol, such as form filling process, contractor information and
experience and technical review before the bidding process is going to be finalized.
