<p>新加坡社会科学大学（SUSS）在初步招标受到批评后，已对其新的罗楚尔校园招标进行了修改。</p>
<p>新加坡 - 新加坡社会科学大学（SUSS）在招标受到批评后，已对其新的罗楚尔校园招标进行了编辑。</p>
<p>大学在 12 月 9 日的声明中表示，招标现在包括了责任限制条款和确保更平衡招标过程的条款。</p>
<p>在九月份，新加坡建筑师协会指出原始招标中的一些条款被认为是不公平的。这些条款要求投标者在授标后提供 “无限的设计变更且不收取额外费用，并承担无限责任”。</p>
<p>这种 “无限责任” 条款通常不具体规定顾问的合同责任限制。这使得他们面临财务损失的风险，并使他们购买覆盖潜在责任索赔的保险变得更加昂贵。</p>
<p>SUSS 表示，招标中的其他关键变化包括 “设计开发变更的费用条款更清晰……更平衡的付款计划，提交要求的更大灵活性，设计提案的更好报酬，以及对行政条款的细化，以增强清晰性和一致性”。</p>
<p>在声明中，大学表示，这些变化吸纳了政府工作组的建议，以提高建筑和工程职位在建筑环境行业的吸引力。建筑和工程顾问工作组于 2024 年 9 月成立。</p>
<p>SUSS 补充说，其更新参考了当前公共部门采购指南，并在与相关部门（包括教育部和专业顾问）协商后制定。</p>
<p>招标截止日期已延长约两个月，至 2026 年 1 月 13 日下午 3 点，以便公司有更多时间更新其提案。原截止日期为 2025 年 11 月 18 日下午 3 点。</p>
<p>新加坡建筑师协会会长 Tiah Nan Chyuan 在九月份表示，原始招标中的条款 “破坏了建筑实践的可持续性、建筑环境行业的可持续性，最终影响客户和更广泛公众的成果质量”。</p>
<p>他还表示，这些条款与建筑和工程顾问工作组的建议相悖。</p>
<p>对此，SUSS 表示，招标是 “符合当前行业标准” 制定的，并补充说大学 “致力于公平、透明和负责任的采购实践”。</p>
<p>但在十月份，国家发展部的 Chee Hong Tat 宣布，从 12 月 1 日起，政府建设合同必须规定顾问的合同责任限制，实际上取消了 “无限责任” 条款。</p>
<p>在十一月份的国会中，财政部第二部长 Indranee Rajah 在被问及 SUSS 问题时指出，自主大学是 “独立的法人实体，而不是政府机构”。</p>
<p>因此，SUSS 通常被期望遵循政府标准合同条款，但有 “更大的自由度来偏离或设定自己的条款”。</p>
<p>Indranee 当时没有给出具体细节，但她提到，大学的合同条款 “与政府标准合同条款并不完全相同”。</p>

<p>SUSS has edited the tender for its new Rochor campus following criticism over its initial tender.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>新加坡社会科学大学（SUSS）在初步招标受到批评后，已对其新的罗楚尔校园招标进行了修改。</p>
</div><p>SINGAPORE - The Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS) has edited a tender for its new Rochor campus following criticism.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>新加坡 - 新加坡社会科学大学（SUSS）在招标受到批评后，已对其新的罗楚尔校园招标进行了编辑。</p>
</div><p>Among other things, the tender now includes a limitation of liability clause and provisions to ensure a more balanced tender process, the university said in a Dec 9 statement on its website.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>大学在 12 月 9 日的声明中表示，招标现在包括了责任限制条款和确保更平衡招标过程的条款。</p>
</div><p>In September, the Singapore Institute of Architects flagged clauses in the original tender that it deemed unfair. These clauses called on bidders to provide “unlimited design changes post-award with no additional fees and unlimited liability”.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在九月份，新加坡建筑师协会指出原始招标中的一些条款被认为是不公平的。这些条款要求投标者在授标后提供 “无限的设计变更且不收取额外费用，并承担无限责任”。</p>
</div><p>Such “unlimited liability” clauses typically do not specify limits on consultants’ contractual liability. This puts them at risk of financial losses and makes it more expensive for them to buy insurance that covers potential liability claims.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>这种 “无限责任” 条款通常不具体规定顾问的合同责任限制。这使得他们面临财务损失的风险，并使他们购买覆盖潜在责任索赔的保险变得更加昂贵。</p>
</div><p>SUSS said other key changes in the tender include “clearer fee provisions for design development changes... a more balanced payment schedule, greater flexibility in submission requirements, better renumeration for design proposals, and refinements to administrative terms to enhance clarity and consistency”.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>SUSS 表示，招标中的其他关键变化包括 “设计开发变更的费用条款更清晰……更平衡的付款计划，提交要求的更大灵活性，设计提案的更好报酬，以及对行政条款的细化，以增强清晰性和一致性”。</p>
</div><p>In its statement, the university said these changes incorporate recommendations from a government task force to improve the attractiveness of architecture and engineering jobs in the built environment sector. The Taskforce for Architectural and Engineering Consultants was set up in September 2024.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在声明中，大学表示，这些变化吸纳了政府工作组的建议，以提高建筑和工程职位在建筑环境行业的吸引力。建筑和工程顾问工作组于 2024 年 9 月成立。</p>
</div><p>SUSS added that its updates take reference from current public sector procurement guidelines, and were developed in consultation with the relevant authorities including the Education Ministry and professional advisors.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>SUSS 补充说，其更新参考了当前公共部门采购指南，并在与相关部门（包括教育部和专业顾问）协商后制定。</p>
</div><p>The tender closing date has been extended by about two months to 3pm on Jan 13, 2026, to allow firms additional time to update their proposals. The original closing date was 3pm on Nov 18, 2025.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>招标截止日期已延长约两个月，至 2026 年 1 月 13 日下午 3 点，以便公司有更多时间更新其提案。原截止日期为 2025 年 11 月 18 日下午 3 点。</p>
</div><p>Mr Tiah Nan Chyuan, president of the Singapore Institute of Architects, had said in September that clauses in the original tender “undermine the sustainability of architecture practice, the built environment industry, and ultimately the quality of outcomes that benefit clients and the wider public”.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>新加坡建筑师协会会长 Tiah Nan Chyuan 在九月份表示，原始招标中的条款 “破坏了建筑实践的可持续性、建筑环境行业的可持续性，最终影响客户和更广泛公众的成果质量”。</p>
</div><p>He had also said that the clauses run counter to the recommendations of the Taskforce for Architectural and Engineering Consultants.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>他还表示，这些条款与建筑和工程顾问工作组的建议相悖。</p>
</div><p>In response, SUSS had said in the tender was developed “in line with current industry standards”, adding that the university is “committed to fair, transparent and responsible procurement practices”.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>对此，SUSS 表示，招标是 “符合当前行业标准” 制定的，并补充说大学 “致力于公平、透明和负责任的采购实践”。</p>
</div><p>But in October, National Development Chee Hong Tat announced that from Dec 1, it will be compulsory for government construction contracts to specify limits on a consultant’s contractual liability - effectively doing away with “unlimited liability” clauses.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>但在十月份，国家发展部的 Chee Hong Tat 宣布，从 12 月 1 日起，政府建设合同必须规定顾问的合同责任限制，实际上取消了 “无限责任” 条款。</p>
</div><p>Asked about the SUSS issue in Parliament in November, Second Minister for Finance Indranee Rajah noted that autonomous universities are “independent corporate entitites and not government agencies”.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在十一月份的国会中，财政部第二部长 Indranee Rajah 在被问及 SUSS 问题时指出，自主大学是 “独立的法人实体，而不是政府机构”。</p>
</div><p>As such, SUSS is generally expected to follow government standard contracting terms but have “a much broader leeway to depart or set their own terms”.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>因此，SUSS 通常被期望遵循政府标准合同条款，但有 “更大的自由度来偏离或设定自己的条款”。</p>
</div><p>Without giving details, Ms Indranee noted at the time that to her understanding, the university’s contracting terms were “not in exactly the same terms as the government standard contracting terms”.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>Indranee 当时没有给出具体细节，但她提到，大学的合同条款 “与政府标准合同条款并不完全相同”。</p>
