FIRST.- BACKGROUND:





1.1
By Executive Decree No. 1064 of May 9, 2008, Econ. Rafael Correa Delgado, Constitutional President of the Republic of Ecuador, declared a state of emergency for the Dirección General de Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación, in order to resolve its critical institutional situation and to duly ensure the right to identity of the inhabitants of Ecuador and prevent a general commotion.





1.2
By Resolution No. 001, of October 8, 2008, published in the www.compraspublicas.gov.ec website on October 9, 2008, Eng. José Fernando Navia Gallardo, then acting General Director of the Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación, in order to resolve the critical situation of the Entity and to duly ensure the right to identity of the inhabitants of Ecuador and prevent a possible general commotion, declared a state of emergency for the Dirección General de Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación.





1.3
The Dirección General de Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación is implementing a Comprehensive Strategic Plan which sets out actions considered necessary to carry out the restructuring and modernization of the institution. The plan seeks to improve the standard of customer service and implement cutting edge technology in regard to public identification, seeking to strengthen the following areas: organizational, technological, and administrative.










1.4
In compliance with the plan outlined by the Dirección General de Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación, referred to in the preceding paragraph, Eng. José Fernando Navia Gallardo, then acting General Director of the Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación determined that to achieve its objectives it is necessary to perform a process of implementing a technological solution that would enable the new model of customer care to be put into action in an integrated and comprehensive manner, a process which was initiated with the execution of Pilot Phase 1 in the city of Guayaquil; and which must continue with the complete implementation in the rest of the city of Guayaquil, as well as in the city of Quito and nationwide.





1.5
For the purposes of executing Phase 1, Guayaquil Pilot Plan, the Dirección General del Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación went through a pre-contracting project in which various bidders participated, and which was won by On Track Innovations Ltd. (OTI), due to the fact that its technical and financial bid was considered the most convenient for the national and institutional interests, reason for which on December 31, 2008, it signed a contract with that company, whereby the latter undertakes to supply and provide services of integration and maintenance of the IT solution for the technological modernization project of the Registro Civil; that is, to implement Phase 1 – Guayaquil - Pilot of the Comprehensive Strategic Plan of the Dirección General de Registro Civil, Identificación y Cedulación.





1.6
Phase 1 - Guayaquil-Pilot, performed by On Track Innovations Ltd. (OTI), was implemented in a completely satisfactory manner, it allowed the achievement of the planned objectives of the Implementation Plan; and, provided the information necessary to continue the execution of the implementation project at a national level. However, since it was a Pilot Plan this implied the exclusive acquisition of two hundred thousand (200,000) ID cards; without covering the total demand from the inhabitants of said city; reason for which the acquisition of a larger quantity of cards is required so that the enrolment process should not undergo any cancellations or delays.





1.7
In addition to the situation pointed out in the prior section there is, concretely,a substantial increase of insecurity in the country, which took place in an alarming and unexpected manner in the last months and which motivated Eco. Rafael Correa Delgado, Constitutional President of the Republic to declare a state of emergency in the cities of Quito, Guayaquil, and Manta several days ago. The increase in crime, in many cases occurred because those who transgress the laws get false or duplicate IDs with relative ease; results which, therefore, are proved and objective;which in turn complicates or hampers the decision-making and the imposition of sanctions by the authorities.  Therefore, it is necessary, in a emergency and immediate way, to acquire an additional required number of ID Cards, which must be provided with a system that would guarantee their  security; so as to apply the legal norms which will afford, if there may be a case, among other actions, the imposition of the corresponding sanctions to those who are liable for acts against the law, while there is knowledge of their identity; and, in that way, to overcome the serious internal commotionthat the country experiences as a result of the facts mentioned herein. The ID cards that are to be acquired must respond and adapt to the technology that the Registro Civil currently has available; and consequently must include a system that will allow the identification of the ID owner, through the identification of fingerprints, without error or risk of any kind. The emergency situation pointed out fulfills, therefore, the requirements provided in No. 31 of Article 6 of the Organic Law of the National System of Public Contracting.








1.8
In order to overcome the emergency stated in the preceding section, it is deemed necessary to contract **THE CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN SO OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION.**electronic identity cards because the levels of technological security of said cards have been proven; and, consequently, as there exists an installed infrastructure which entailed the spending of related funds, it is convenient for the Institution and for the country that the emergency contracting of the **THE CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN SO OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION.** ID cards be done with the contractor that implemented the Guayaquil Pilot Plan.





1.9
It is a duty of the Ecuadorian state to guarantee its citizens’ exercise of their right to identity, granted in the Republic’s Constitution.





1.10
Article 57 of the Organic Law of the National Public Contracting System provides that in cases of emergency, the contracting entity can contract in a direct form and under the responsibility of the supreme authority, the works, goods and services, including consulting, required strictly to overcome the emergency situation.





1.11

Additionally, these bidding specifications and the process schedule were approved, and the initiation of this special procedure was instructed.

RESOLUTION No. DGRCIC-2009- 0066




ENGINEER PAULO RODRÍGUEZ MOLINA




GENERAL DIRECTOR OF CIVIL REGISTRY, IDENTIFICATION AND CARD ISSUANCE




WHERE AS:




By Executive Decree No.1064 of May 9th 2008, the Economist Rafael Correa Delgado, Constitutional President of the Republic of Ecuador declared a state of emergency to the General Directorate of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance in order to solve its situation of institutional crisis and properly ensure the right to identity of the inhabitants of Ecuador and prevent general commotion;




Bymeans of Resolution No. 001, dated October 8th 2008, published in the website  www.compraspublicas.gov.ec on October 9th 2008, Engineer Jose Fernando Navia Gallardo, then the General Director of Civil Registry, Identification and Cards Issuance, in order to solve the critical situation of the Institution, properly ensure the right to identity of the inhabitants of Ecuador and prevent general commotion, through immediate procurement of works, goods and services including consultancy, declared the state of emergency of the General Directorate of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance;




Article 227 of the Constitution of the Republic, published in the Official Gazette No. 449 of October 20th 2008, established that public administration is a service to the community that is governed by the principles of effectiveness, efficiency, quality, hierarchy, deconcentration, decentralization, coordination, participation, planning, transparency and evaluation.  The General Directorate of Civil Registration, Identification and Card Issuance, as part of public administration, should also embrace these principles;




The General Directorate of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance, is implementing a Comprehensive Strategic Plan, which is defined in actions considered necessary and indispensable to carry out the restructuring and modernization of the institution. The plan seeks to improve the level of care and implement state-of-the-art technology in regard to public identification, seeking to strengthen the following areas: Organizational, Technological and Administrative;




[There is a seal that reads: Notary 10, Quito Ecuador, Atty. Oswaldo Mejía Espinosa; next to it there is another seal that reads: IT IS A TRUE COPY OF THE ORIGINAL WHICH IS KEPT IN THIS FILE, OCTOBER 30, 2009; and there is another seal that reads: GENERAL DIRECTORATE OFCIVIL REGISTRY, IDENTIFICATION AND CARD ISSUANCE- QUITO-]










Within the fulfillment of the plan prepared by the General Directorate of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance, referred to in the preceding paragraph, Engineer Jose Fernando Navia Gallardo, then the General Director of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance, determined that in order to achieve its objectives it would be necessary to carry out a process for the implementation a technological solution that allows to comprehensively and fully implement a new model of user service, a process that began with the implementation of Phase 1 Pilot in the city of Guayaquil, and that should continue with full implementation in the rest of the said city, as well as in the General Directorate of Civil Registry of Identification and Card Issuance of the city of Quito and at a national level;




For purposes of conducting Phase 1 Pilot plan Guayaquil, the General Directorate of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance, carried out a pre-contractual processwhich involved several bidders, and which was won by the company On Track Innovations Ltd. (OTI) because its technical and financial proposal was considered to be the most suitable for the national and institutional interests, for which reason, a contract was signed with the aforementioned company by means of which they undertake to supply and provide integration and maintenance services for the software solution for the Technological Modernization Project of the Civil Registry, that is, to implement Phase 1 - Pilot-Guayaquil of the Comprehensive Strategic Plan of the General Directorate of Civil Registration, Identification and Card Issuance;




Phase 1 - Pilot-Guayaquil in charge of the company On Track Innovations Ltd. (OTI) was implemented satisfactorily, allowing the accomplishment of the objectives of the Implementation Plan and, it provided the information necessary to continue the execution of the implementation project at a national level. However, as it was a Pilot Plan it involved the acquisition of only two hundred thousand (200,000) identity cards, without being able to meet the total demand of the inhabitants of that city, thus requiring the purchase of a larger number of identity cards so the enrollment process did not suffer any suspensions or delays;




due to the situation outlined in the previous number the insecurity in the country is growing , increasing in an alarming and unpredictable manner in recent months, and which even led Economist Rafael Correa Delgado, Constitutional President of the Republic, declared a state of emergency in the cities of Quito and Guayaquil.  The growth of crime, in many cases, is due to the fact that it is relatively easy to obtain false identity cards or dual identities by those who commit crimes, consequences that therefore are proven and objective and publicly available information, which hampers or prevents the decision-making or imposition of sanctions by the authorities. Therefore, the acquisition of the additional number of Identity Cards required is an immediate necessity, they must be equipped with a system to ensure its safety, in order to implement the rules of law that permit, if applicable, among other things, the imposition of appropriate sanctions on those responsible for acts contrary to the law, having actual knowledge of their identity, and thus overcoming the situation of serious internal unrest in the country, due to the facts stated.










The Identity Cards to be acquired must respond and adapt to the technology currently available to the Civil Registry, and therefore should include a system that through the identification of fingerprints can identify, without error or risk of any type, the holder of the corresponding identity card. The emergency situation described, is compliant, therefore, with the requirements of Article 6 number 31 of the Organic Law of the National Procurement System;




In addition to what was expressed in the preceding number it is required to hire the physical infrastructure necessary to function in the new user care centers of the Institution, aimed at providing a modern and safe service;




Considering Article 21 of Executive Decree No. 8 of August 13th, 2009, in which the Ministry of Telecommunications and Society of Information is created, the General Directorate of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance is in charge of the Ministry of Telecommunications and Society of Information, which shall oversee the immediate reform and modernization of such Entity;




Are, therefore, met the requirements set forth in Article 57 of the Organic Law of National Public Procurement System to solve the Declaration of Emergency;





In exercise of the powers provided for in Article 57 of the Organic Law on National Public Procurement System,




RESOLVES




Art.1.-To declare a state of emergency to the General Directorate of Civil Registry, Identification and Card Issuance in order to solve the situation of institutional crisis and properly ensure the right to identity of the inhabitants of Ecuador and prevent general commotion caused by the rise of insecurity in the country, which aspects to be considered are, inter alia, the abuse and fraudulent use of identity documents.




Art.2.- As a result of the emergency declaration resolved, the works, goods or services that may be required to overcome the emergency situation will be contracted,  including consultancy.




Art.3 .-Once the emergency situation is overcome, a report detailing the contracts made and the budget spent shall be published in the website www.compraspublicas.gov.ec, indicating the results.




This Resolution of declaration of emergency shall be published in the website www.compraspublicas.gov.ec
