From the first day of becoming a supplier of the United Nations, Muya forestry has become a supplier of level 2, which is very rare.
Level 2 is the highest level of suppliers in the United Nations. Even if Muya forestry will enter the special purchasing list in the future, their level 2 will not change. What will change is the importance of their saplings. The United Nations will treat them as strategic materials to ensure supply.
The treatment of Muya forestry is more or less unexpected.
Moreover, according to the practice of the United Nations, if you want to become a supplier, you have to provide the qualification certificate to meet some conditions, but Muya forestry basically does not.
For example, before becoming a supplier, you must provide at least three customer references that have been served in the past 12 months.
Another example is that the company has been established for at least three years.
Another example is the proof of the latest ISO Certificate or similar certificate.
Muya forestry has none of these things.
They didn't have the recommendation from customers. When they became suppliers of the United Nations, the company had not been established for three years, and there were no certificates to prove it... They became suppliers because of the strong recommendation of lobat, the director of UNEP at that time.
According to the procurement rules of the United Nations, only those whose purchase orders are less than US $30000 can be directly selected by the procurement officials to review the quotations.
For example, the purchase order of Muya forestry is so large that it usually needs international public bidding. The bidding information is published in various official journals for advertising, and suppliers are invited to participate.
However, Muya forestry has obviously received a lot of care and convenience. In the process of becoming a supplier, they did not follow these standard processes at all.
Because of this incident, Robert has been criticized by the Secretariat. Even some people within the UNEP think that he was bribed in Xiaguo. Although such a statement can not be found out after investigation, it can only be settled.
However, the qualification of Muya forestry has been questioned internally. This is also the reason why the Secretariat deliberately did not give Muya forestry any money when checking the environmental programme.
Of course, things have changed. After the release of this year's final report, doubts about Muya forestry will disappear.
At the same time, looking back now, lobat did not follow the standard process to determine Muya forestry as a supplier and made a large purchase, which fully showed his vision and determination.
There's no need to mention the idea of taking bribes and taking advantage of it. It's no longer self defeating.
Albert believed that during his visit to Xia, he saw the value of the saplings cultivated by Muya forestry, so he insisted on giving special treatment to Muya forestry.
Even though he knew that he would be questioned in the Secretariat, he did not change his judgment.
There are really not many officials with this ability and courage in the whole UN organization.
Because of this, Albert had to come to see the Xiaguo company in person.
As the head of the procurement division, he wanted to have a clear understanding of his important supplier.
He believes that after this year's final report, the amount of purchase orders from UNEP to Muya forestry will only become larger in the new year.
As far as he knows, this Xiaguo company is very special. They purchase with Muya forestry, many of which are different from the original process.
For example, in the procurement of other projects, the payment terms are generally 30 days after the arrival of goods, without advance payment or deposit. If sales are involved, all loans will be issued in batches, and the collection period will become relatively long.
But here in Muya forestry, Muya forestry actually needs them to pay a 10% deposit, and the payment must be very punctual and fast. There is no discussion at all.
To put it bluntly, if their payment is not on time, the next batch of seedlings will not be issued on time.
If they were replaced by other companies, the United Nations would have removed them from the list of suppliers for a long time, but Muya forestry has always been given special "care" and is the highest ranking supplier.
In addition, most of the procurement of United Nations needs the support of localized services. Even for those commodities that do not need to be installed, such as chemical fertilizers, they also need a reliable local organization to deliver them to the door, which is very strict.
However, Muya forestry has absolutely no service support. They just deliver the goods. As long as the seedlings go out of the country, they don't care about anything. They don't even ask much about what will happen after the seedlings are planted.
Such a maverick supplier is really speechless, but the survival rate of their seedlings is too high to be replaced.
As for Carlos' saying that "there are several forestry companies in the country of silence with good saplings", Albert did not intend to know more about it. He was more thinking about Carlos' position.
Albert has known Carlos from a very early age and has a certain understanding of Carlos.
Carlos is a member of the people's Republic of China and has always had the official background of the people's Republic of China.
Before entering the financing for development office, he worked for many years in the state of silent mourning and in some lobbying groups.
It is also because of his background that he has contacts that others don't have, and his ability to raise funds is very outstanding. Therefore, he has been in charge of the financing for development office since many years ago.
Carlos at this time opposed to let Muya forestry into the special procurement list, the reason is not sufficient.
What's more, he recommended the forestry company of the country of silent mourning, which also made Albert alert and unwilling to let the things on Zhengzhi affect the procurement process too much.
Of course, as an official who has worked in UN agencies for many years, Albert will not use too fierce way to reject Carlos' proposal.
After pondering for a while, he said, "Mr. Carlos, your opinion is very important. It's a reminder to us that we really should choose every supplier carefully."
After a little meal, he said, "well, you should first send me the relevant information of the companies you recommend. I need to have a good look... Well, please also send me the information of their saplings. It's better to send a batch of saplings. I'll find experts to study them and see how they are."
Carlos is not a kid who has just come out to work. He is very clear about the work process of these big organizations. Although Albert is polite, he is more likely to appease him temporarily.
Carlos thought about it, and then said, "I think it's good, Mr. Albert. Let's put aside the special purchase list first. After two years, we'll see if the seedlings of Muya forestry really have such a good effect on preventing desertification, and then we can make a decision."
"I will personally report this matter to the Secretary General and see what he thinks before making a decision," Albert said
If it was in the ancient Xia Kingdom, it meant to ask for the censor
Although Carlos is reluctant, he can only shut his mouth and say nothing more.
For days after that.
Albert and others, led by Chen mu, wandered around Muya forestry.
They visited Muya Research Institute and learned about the patents owned by Muya Research Institute, which was enough to let them understand that it was not an accident that this Xiaguo enterprise could rise in such a short period of time.
They also visited the planting sites of desert rice and greenhouse fruits and vegetables, and the technical strength of Muya forestry further refreshed their understanding.
During the visit, Albert was not idle. The person in charge of Xiaguo office had a deep understanding of Muya forestry.
Albert took the information sent by Xia Guo's office, read it and passed it on to other people in the same trade.
"No wonder they don't care about our orders. Their seedlings are very popular in Xiaguo, and their market share of seedling products has been growing at a high proportion.
As far as Haloxylon ammodendron seedlings are concerned, their market share in the state of Xia is more than 30 percent, their trial production share in the northwest of Xia is 55 percent, and their market share in Xinjiang and Qi province is 90 percent.
With their current seedling production capacity, even without our orders, their seedlings are in short supply in China and can be completely digested. "
After everyone had passed the information around, Albert became more and more serious and said, "according to the data we have at present, in the past 10 years, Xia has increased 1.94 million hectares of forest per year on average, with a growth rate of 0.93%, which means that the total net growth of forest area in Xia is close to that of Beihe province.
In order to prevent desertification, Xia's tree planting plan is making great success. In many aspects, they are at the leading level of the whole world in terms of technology and management.
For example, the seedlings cultivated by Muya forestry have excellent performance in arid desert areas, which can be seen from the summary report of our environmental programme. I don't need to say much.
Therefore, I have decided that our purchasing department will increase the purchasing volume of Muya forestry in the next year. There is no doubt about that. "
Carlos said: "Mr. Albert, I want to state to you the fact that environmental protection is a subject that can't only look at short-term effects.
In fact, Xia is not the first country to try to use man-made forests to repair desertified land.
In the 1930s, the strong black sandstorm in the middle of our country was raging in many states. In order to control it, the president of our country formed a tree planting army of millions of unemployed workers and planted 220 million trees every month.
In the 1940s, Soviet and Russian leaders also launched a "natural transformation plan" to plant large-scale windbreak like forests in the southern plains.
In the end, the two plans were not settled, because the seedlings planted in some areas died in just a few years.
So, Mr. Albert, we should let time tell
Albert shook his head. "No, Mr. Carlos, your words don't convince me.
It is not a matter of one or two years for Xia state to use artificial forest to repair the desertified land. They are not just a short-term attempt like the country of silent mourning or Russia.
Xia people's tree planting plan has been adhered to for more than 20 years. If they can make a mistake in time, their practice is enough to prove a lot of things.
We don't need to make too many new attempts. We just need to spread their successful experience and technology.
Just like the seedlings of Muya forestry, I think it is very worthy of our promotion. "
What Carlos has said is what some western media have said over the years. They have never stopped questioning Xia's tree planting plan.
However, Albert's many years of working experience in the procurement division do not agree with this view.
Some things, whenever they are involved in Zheng Zhi, will become completely different.
For example, Muya forestry produces many kinds of saplings, and the effect of planting them in the desert is very good. This is what Albert saw with his own eyes.
At present, all over the world, due to the continuous printing of money by the country of silence, inflation has led to high prices, and the financial pressure of the procurement division is very heavy.
Saving money has become a big problem for the procurement department.
Although the unit price of Muya forestry seedlings is higher than that of ordinary seedlings, the survival rate after planting is higher. Take the data of last year for comparison, the procurement department has saved more than 3 million US dollars in this project, and the results are still better, which is equivalent to saving money and doing great things.
If we increase the procurement volume of Muya forestry this year, the procurement division should be able to save more.
All kinds of consideration, let Albert's heart has made a decision, he will do everything to add Muya forestry to the special purchase list, no matter what kind of words Carlos and the forces behind him will use to question and obstruct.
After a few days, Chen Mu sent the people of the United Kingdom away.
He also sent Qi Yinong away.
When Qi Yinong left, he was very "brazen" and seized three jin of Chen Mu's tea.
Qi Yinong was in a good mood when he took the tea. Before he left, he said to Chen mu, "I've already asked Mr. Albert for you. There's nothing wrong with your company's entry into the special purchasing list. Just wait!"
After a few days of hospitality, I got such a qualification. I feel it's worth it.
"Good luck, I wish you good luck..."
After seeing the people off and seeing the car leave quickly, Chen mu can't help but sing a little song and walk back slowly. He is in a good mood.
According to Qi Yinong, the qualification of this directory of United Nations is even more useful than some international standard certification.
As long as you get it, you can do business in many places in the future.
And more importantly, the volume of procurement from the United Nations side will increase significantly.
At the same time, some relevant agencies of the United Nations, including the world bank, FAO, procurement services office, UNDP, etc., will give priority to Muya forestry when they encounter relevant procurement.
In addition, orders from other countries and institutions will follow.
In a word, Muya forestry is lucky this time.
