Soon after the holiday, the bidding for the automation system of the Beidesert Power Plant was finally launched, and the bidding was opened in accordance with the rules. According to the general rules, this kind of public bidding must have at least three suppliers to bid to be effective, and the interesting thing is that the almost abandoned Kedian has also joined the ranks of the competition, just in line with the requirements of the bidding rules, with presumably some things left by Hua Changqing, but there is no follow-up research and development of people and property, the content may be good, but it is far from winning the bid. In other words, the only real bidders are the two who know what they know.

Different from the general rules, this time the test link has been added, so the bid evaluation time will be longer.

At the beginning of March, more than 10 international experts arrived in Beijing, and IEC/TC65 expert members served as the bid evaluation team leader. TC65, as a technical committee for industrial process control, has been taking the lead in formulating automation standards, and this person is the team leader, and all parties are naturally convinced.

Old friends Schroeder and Thomas also came to cheer this time, Schroeder's professional overlap with automation, and Thomas appeared purely from the position of the user, and accepting the invitation of the Northern Desert is obviously not a drunkard.

According to the relevant requirements of Beimo Company, the bid evaluation process is closed, and the bidder should only send technical personnel within three people to assist in the test and bid evaluation Q&A, and such technical personnel are also closed management, prohibiting communication with the outside world.

So the shameless time came, Zhang Yifu turned into a technical debugging engineer, and formed a technical support team with Chang Jiang and Shang Jin, which is really too luxurious and luxurious.

You have to be a technician, and no one else can stop you.

At this point, Lu Wei really can't live up, just three technical support places, if he occupies one, I am afraid that the real trouble encountered in the bid evaluation process will not be solved, not to mention that the normal boss always has a little shelf and discipline. Don't play like this.

Because the laboratory of the Electric Power Research Institute is to be used, the working meeting before the bid evaluation is arranged to be held in the conference room of the Electric Power Research Institute. It happened to be Hu Haitao who was responsible for organizing and communicating this matter on the side of the Electric Power Research Institute, and when he saw Zhang Yifu and Chang Jiang smiling at the meeting, he couldn't cry or laugh, and people who knew Zhang Yifu couldn't cry or laugh.

The Electric Power Research Institute is the supporter of the evaluation equipment and evaluation location. It stands to reason that there is no need to send such a big leader to assist, but the dozen or so people who came this time are all foreign guests, and it is Jia Luansong who organizes this work here in the Northern Desert, so he will not dare to slack off. Especially for fear that Jia Luansong is young and inexperienced, and it will be difficult to deal with any emergencies, so Hu Haitao, who is both stable and technical, will help support the field.

Lin Lizheng also personally participated in the first meeting, and the purpose was obviously to show respect for foreign guests.

They are all acquaintances, but everyone pays attention to their words and deeds. I didn't dare to be too close to Zhang Yifu before the meeting, after all, it was a closed bid evaluation. Even Thomas just nodded and smiled with Zhang Yifu, and secretly thanked Zhang Yifu for introducing the provincial relationship, and their foreign-funded power projects were already being incubated.

As a cliché, Lin Lizheng welcomed the foreign guests and thanked the Electric Power Research Institute for its support.

Hu Haitao welcomed the foreign guests and said that he would try his best to meet any needs during the evaluation process.

Jia Luansong welcomed the foreign guests and said that everyone must do their best to complete the bid evaluation work excellently.

The boss of foreign guests. He is a member of the TC65 Standing Expert Committee and is 58 years old. The bare-headed Larson thanked everyone for the welcome and will complete the bid evaluation fairly and fairly.

Zhang Yifu looked through the list of experts throughout the whole process and found interesting things.

This Larson is from ABB......

is worthy of Jia Luansong, the arrangement is too in place.

After the meeting, engineers from the three manufacturers began to set up the environment in the laboratory separately, due to the limited evaluation equipment. It is easy to find that the engineers of Shenzi are very nervous, but the people of Kedian are slow to talk and laugh, as a "standard nursery" is this mentality.

The three of Zhang Yifu's side were temporarily idle. In a conference room not far away, bid evaluation experts are judging non-experimental aspects. On the one hand, it is necessary to look at the key points of design such as system architecture, bus, and rationality, and on the other hand, it is necessary to evaluate the completeness of the equipment in the bid, including the quotation, etc.

This is also a more embarrassing part of the bidding, such as the North Desert scale of the power plant, even if there is only one phase of two units, the total amount of automation equipment covered will inevitably exceed 100, the big head is the server, workstation, the middle is PLC, relay, small to the power supply, network cables, all of them, these must be covered in the bidding.

According to the experts, the three bidders have no experience in the system, in this area the details are inevitably more vague, if it is to let Mitsubishi Siemens to bid, it must be very clear, every network cable is with you to calculate clearly, explain clearly, and Hengdian Branch Electric Shenzi, completely still staggering, and even the later work depends on ABB's guidance and consultation, so this quotation and equipment table, it is easy to do very stupid.

Of course, in the bidding, you can't use "stupid", you can only say that it is unprofessional.

However, in addition to Kedian, Hengdian and Shenzi's bids are shocking, because they know in advance that the bid will be evaluated by foreign experts, and the English version is also done early, hundreds of equipment types and required quantities are clearly listed, and each terminal is really scary.

Originally, foreign experts were ready to evaluate a bunch of unprofessional rags, but they didn't want to just look at the bidding documents to be of international level, of course, the premise was to ignore the share of science and electricity.

The eight immortals crossed the sea, each showing their magical powers. Hengdian's bid was written by him himself, and everything was perfect and even exquisite.

And Shenzi originally did not have this condition, but Mitsubishi has, with the assistance of that side, the writing (chao) is also very good, but it is not exquisite compared with Hengdian, the language gap is here, the two sides exchange and translate back and forth, and it is inevitable that there will be some details that seem to be not in place.

After the preliminary review of the bids, Larson took off his glasses and smiled: "These two copies, the degree of professionalism is no worse than any one we have seen." ”

"Yes, China's automation manufacturers, at least in this regard, are already in place. ”

"Why does this look so familiar," an expert frowned and picked up ......the tender to photocopy, "Change the superscript in the upper left corner, is it another company's?"

"It should be like Mitsubishi, right?" said Jia Luansong, who was in charge of organizational management.

Several people around nodded yes, this kind of file format, the wording is indeed unique to Japanese manufacturers.

"As far as I know, there is a cooperation between Shenzi and Mitsubishi. Jia Luansong explained, "In terms of bidding consultation, presumably Mitsubishi has provided some support. ”

"Isn't this a purely domestic bidding for China?" Larson frowned, "If imported products can intervene, I believe that these two companies will not be the only ones who will come to bid...... Oh no, three, right?"

"It's not imported, they have cooperation, and we can't control it, and in principle, it's not a mistake, but we have to support the introduction of this kind of technology. ”

"What about Hengdian?" one of them asked, "Hengdian's tender is so professional, which international consulting company helped write it?"

Jia Luansong lightly clicked on the photocopy of the bidding document: "If it is not indicated on it, Hengdian should have done it by himself." ”

Everyone flipped through the front and back, but couldn't find the note, at least on the surface, it had to be thought to be Hengdian's original.

Larsson then sighed: "Such a big target, both sides ...... Oh no, none of the three parties are looking for a bidding consulting company, which is also an interesting place. ”

"Yes, but Shen has his own voluntary advice from Mitsubishi. ”

Everyone chuckled.

Most of the IEC experts do not work full-time on the IEC committee, but have their own institutional companies, especially those who work for companies that also cover automation products, and there is already some dissatisfaction with Mitsubishi's curve intervention. If Beidesert Automation is an international bidding, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are five or six large manufacturers to bid, but Mitsubishi is playing this hand, slightly dirty.

However, "dirty" must not be the basis for judging and scoring, after all, we are professionals, and in the end we still have to rely on products and technology to speak, although the heart is dissatisfied with Mitsubishi and Shenzi's approach, but there is no way, only to sigh secretly, Hengdian relies on independent originality, and Japan's foundation for decades, I am afraid that it is more auspicious and less.

After that, we began to conduct non-experimental item-by-item scoring, not looking at the experiment, only looking at the practicality and cost of the automation system in terms of design, which accounted for about 30% of the score. The Japanese are also regarded as pioneers in terms of computers, only one step after the Americans, but step by step, step by step, they will always be led by the nose by the new technology of the United States, but they have not fallen far behind, and their own power industry automation is almost a piece of domestic production, how many years of operation, the skill is naturally profound.

This is also a place where the Europeans and Americans present are particularly annoying to the Japanese.

When playing mahjong, some people will secretly play with a "Pixiu", this mythical species only eats and does not pull, carrying this, hoping to make money and lose less. However, the Japanese are the opposite in the international market, they only pull but do not eat, Japanese products are exported to the world, and the Japanese themselves rarely use imported products, and there is always a trade surplus, and the products of other countries cannot be entered, which is really a nasty thing. However, most of the people present dared not say that they had never driven a Japanese car, used a Japanese camera, or watched Japanese television.

Hate and can't put it down, this is how most people feel about Japanese products.

The product concept independently developed by Hengdian in a short period of time wants to collide with this kind of demonic product, most people feel both sad and pity in their hearts, and they are afraid that they can't even score sympathy. (To be continued......)
