（1）Phase One – Application and prequalification

The prequalification phase of the project will have multiple rounds of open voting, and one bidder will be eliminated in each round. The review committee will follow the detailed prequalification rules to vote on the prequalification application documents submitted by bidders that have passed a compliance review. Five bidders will be shortlisted to enter the second phase, i.e. the competitive bidding phase. Meanwhile, two backup bidders will be chosen, with one preferred to the other. If one of the five shortlisted bidders fails to submit a bidding confirmation letter before the site survey Q&A meeting, it will forfeit its own participation, in which case the preferred backup bidder steps in as a substitute. If two of the five shortlisted bidders fail to do that, they will be replaced by the two backup bidders.

（2） Phase Two – Design competition

1）After bidders submit deliverables required by the design brief, the scheme evaluation committee will select two potential bid-winners through multiple rounds of open voting and elimination of one bidder in each round. The two potential winners will not be ranked. The committee will put forward optimization suggestions for the two schemes submitted by the two potential bid-winners.

2） Each bidder is allowed for only one deliverable submittal.
