request that the Tenderer submit the necessary information or
documentation, within a reasonable period of time, to rectify non-
material non-conformities in the Tender related to documentation

abnormally low in relation to the subject matter of the procurement
(scope of works or services) and raises concerns as to the ability of
the Tenderer that presented that tender to perform the contract.
(b) Before rejecting an abnormally low tender, the PE shall request
the Tenderer for an explanation of the tender or of those parts which
it considers contribute to the tender being abnormally low; take
account of the evidence provided in response to a request in writing;

abnormally low.
(c) The decision of the PE to reject a tender and reasons for the
decision shall be recorded in the procurement proceedings and
promptly communicated to the Tenderer concerned.
(d) The PE shall not incur liability solely by rejecting abnormally
low tender.

and of all the tenders submitted, the tender appears to be abnormally
low by not providing a margin for normal levels of profit.
33.3 The PE will determine to its satisfaction whether the Tenderer that is
selected as having submitted the lowest evaluated responsive Tender
is qualified to perform the contract satisfactorily, in accordance with
the criteria listed in Section IV – Qualification and Evaluation
Criteria.
33.4 The determination will take into account the Tenderer’s financial,
technical, and production capabilities. It will be based upon an
examination of the documentary evidence of the Tenderer’s
qualifications submitted by the Tenderer, pursuant to –ITT 12.3
[Documents Establishing Eligibility and Qualifications of the
Tenderer], as well as such other information as the PE deems
necessary and appropriate. Factors not included in these Tendering
Documents shall not be used in the evaluation of the Tenderers’
qualifications.
33.5 A PE may seek independent references of a Tenderer and the results
of reference checks may be used in determining award of contract.
33.6 An affirmative determination will be a prerequisite for award of the
contract to the Tenderer. A negative determination will result in
rejection of the Tenderer’s Tender, in which event the PE will
proceed to the next lowest evaluated Tender to make a similar
determination of that Tenderer’s capabilities to perform the contract
satisfactorily.

Schedule of Cost Indexation
[Note to PE: It is recommended that the PE is advised by a professional with experience in construction costs and the
inflationary effect on construction costs when preparing the contents of the Schedule of Cost Indexation. In the case of
very large and/or complex works contracts, it may be necessary to specify several families of price adjustment
formulae corresponding to the different works involved]

[The formulae for price adjustment shall be of the following general type:]

Pn = a + bLn/L0+ cEn/E0 + d Mn/M0 + ….

where:

“Pn” is the adjustment multiplier to be applied to the estimated contract value in the relevant currency of the work
carried out in period “n”, this period being a month unless otherwise stated in the CC;

“a” is a fixed coefficient, stated in the relevant table of adjustment data, representing the non-adjustable portion in
contractual payments;

“b”, “c”, “d”, ... are coefficients representing the estimated proportion of each cost element related to the execution of
the Works as stated in the relevant table of adjustment data; such tabulated cost elements may be indicative of
resources such as labour, equipment and materials;

“Ln”,“En”, “Mn”, ... are the current cost indices or reference prices for period “n”, expressed in the relevant currency
of payment, each of which is applicable to the relevant tabulated cost element on the date 30 days prior to the last day
of the period (to which the particular Payment Certificate relates); and

“Lo”,“Eo”, “Mo”, are the base cost indices or reference prices, expressed in the relevant currency of payment, each of
which is applicable to the relevant tabulated cost element on the Base Date.

The cost indices or reference prices stated in the Table of Adjustment Data shall be used. If their source is in doubt, it
shall be determined by the Project Manager. For this purpose, reference shall be made to the values of the indices at
stated dates (quoted in the fourth and fifth columns respectively of the table).

If the currency in which the Contract price is expressed is different from the currency of the country of origin of the
indices, a correction factor will be applied to avoid incorrect adjustments of the Contract price. The correction factor
shall be: Z0 / Zn, where,
Z0 = the number of units of currency of the origin of the indices which equal to one unit of the currency of the
Contract Price on the Base date, and
Zn = the number of units of currency of the origin of the indices which equal to one unit of the currency of the
Contract Price on the Date of Adjustment.
Schedule of Adjustment Data
[In Tables A, B, and C, below, the Tenderer shall (a) indicate its amount of local currency payment, (b)indicate its
proposed source and base values of indices for the different foreign currency elements of cost, (c) derive its proposed
weightings for local and foreign currency payment, and (d) list the exchange rates used in the currency conversion. In
the case of very large and/or complex works contracts, it may be necessary to specify several families of price
adjustment formulae corresponding to the different works involved.]

MinimumContent of ES requirements
In preparing detailed specifications for ES requirements, thespecialists should refer to and consider:

project reports e.g. ESIA/ESMP

consent/permit conditions

required standards including Guidelines

relevant international conventions or treaties etc., national legal and/or regulatory requirements and standards (eg
NEMC and OSHA Guidelines)

description in the Bill of Quantities and if, in the opinion of
the Project Manager, the quantity of work is above the limit
stated in Sub-Clause 48.1 or the timing of its execution do not
cause the cost per unit of quantity to change, the rate in the
Bill of Quantities shall be used to calculate the value of the
Variation. If the cost per unit of quantity changes, or if the
nature or timing of the work in the Variation does not
correspond with items in the Bill of Quantities, the quotation
by the Contractor shall be in the form of new rates for the
relevant items of work.

the Intended Completion Date shall be extended. The Project
Manager shall, upon consultation with Employer, decide
whether and by how much the Contract Price shall be
increased and whether and by how much the Intended
Completion Date shall be extended.
55.3 As soon as information demonstrating the effect of each
Compensation Event upon the Contractor’s forecast cost has
been provided by the Contractor, it shall be assessed by the
Project Manager, if agreed by the Employer, the Contract
Price shall be adjusted accordingly. If the Contractor’s
forecast is deemed unreasonable, the Project Manager in
consultation with Employer shall adjust the Contract Price
based on the Project Manager’s own forecast.

55.4 The Contractor shall not be entitled to compensation to the

extent that the Employer’s interests are adversely affected by the
Contractor’s not having given early warning or not having

such changes are not already reflected in the Contract Price or
are a result of GCC 50.
56.2 In the event that the Laws Governing Taxes, Duties and other
levies have changed between the signature date and the last
completion certificate thereby affecting the Contract Price, the
Employer and the Contractor, shall mutually adjust the contract
price accordingly.
57. Price Adjustment 57.1 If applicable and stated in SCC, the amounts payable to the
Contractor, pursuant to GCC53.1 may be adjusted in respect
of the rise or fall in the cost of labor, Contractor’s Equipment,
Plant, materials, and other inputs to the Works, by applying to
such amounts the formulae prescribed in this clause.
57.2 To the extent that full compensation for any rise in costs to
the Contractor is not covered by the provisions of this or other
clauses in the Contract, the unit rates and prices included in
the Contract shall be deemed to include amounts to cover the
contingency of such other rise of costs.

80
57.3 The adjustment to be applied to the amount otherwise payable
to the Contractor, as valued in accordance with the appropriate
Schedule and certified in Payment Certificates, shall be
determined from formulae for each of the currencies in which
the Contract Price is payable. No adjustment is to be applied
to work valued on the basis of Cost or current prices. The
formulae shall be of the following general type:
Pn = a + bLn/Lo + cEn/Eo+ dMn/Mo +……

where:

“Pn” is the adjustment multiplier to be applied to the estimated

contract value in the relevant currency of the work carried out
in period “n”, this period being a month unless otherwise
stated in the SCC ;

“a” is a fixed coefficient, stated in the relevant table of

adjustment data, representing the non-adjustable portion in
contractual payments;

“b”, “c”, “d”, … are coefficients representing the estimated

proportion of each cost element related to the execution of the
Works, as stated in the relevant table of adjustment data; such
tabulated cost elements may be indicative of resources such as
labour, equipment and materials;
“Ln”, “En”, “Mn”, … are the current cost indices or reference
prices for period “n”, expressed in the relevant currency of
payment, each of which is applicable to the relevant tabulated
cost element on the date 30 days prior to the last day of the
period (to which the particular Payment Certificate relates);
and
“Lo”, “Eo”,“Mo”, … are the base cost indices or reference
prices, expressed in the relevant currency of payment, each of
which is applicable to the relevant tabulated cost element on the
Base Date.”
If the currency in which the Contract Price P0 is expressed is
different from the currency of origin of the indices, a correction
factor will be applied to avoid incorrect adjustments of the
Contract Price.
The correction factor shall be: Z0/Zn, where:
Z0 =the number of units of currency of the origin of the indices
which equal to one unit of the currency of the Contract Price on
the Base date, and
Zn =the number of units of currency of the origin of the indices
which equal to one unit of the currency of the Contract Price on
the Date of Adjustment.
57.4 The value of net work done, certified by the Project Manager,
in any monthly Interim or Final Certificate as payable by the
Employer to the Contractor before deduction of any retention
money shall be increased or decreased by an amount of ‘F’.
Where F = Po x (Pn -1)
Po = The value of work certified by the Project Manager in
any monthly Interim or Final Certificate in the relevant
currency of payment.
57.5 The sources of indices shall be those listed in the Appendix
to Tender, as approved by the Project Manager. Indices shall
be appropriate for their purpose and shall relate to the
Contractor’s proposed source of supply of inputs on the basis
of which his Contract Price and expected foreign currency
requirements shall have been computed. As the proposed
basis for price adjustment, the Contractor shall have
submitted with his tender the tabulation of Weightings and
Source of Indices in the Appendix to Tender, which shall be
subject to approval by the Project Manager.

81
 57.6 The base cost indices or prices shall be those prevailing on
the day 28 days prior to the latest date for submission of
tenders. Current indices or prices shall be those prevailing on
the day 28 days prior to the last day of the period to which a
particular Interim Payment Certificate is related. If at any
time the current indices are not available, provisional indices
as determined by the Project Manager will be used, subject to
subsequent correction of the amounts paid to the Contractor
when the current indices become available.
57.7 If the Contractor fails to complete the Works within the time
for completion prescribed under GCC 21.1 adjustment of
prices thereafter until the date of completion of the Works
shall be made using either the indices or prices relating to the
prescribed time for completion, or the current indices or
prices, whichever is more favorable to the Employer,
provided that if an extension of time is granted pursuant to
GCC 37.1 the above provision shall apply only to
adjustments made after the expiry of such extension of time.
57.8 The weightings for each of the factors of cost given in the
Appendix to Tender shall be adjusted if, in the opinion of
the Engineer, they have been rendered unreasonable,
unbalanced, or inapplicable as a result of varied or additional
work already executed or instructed under GCC 49 or for any
other reason.
58. Retention 58.1 The Employer shall retain from each payment due to the
Contractor the proportion stated in the SCC. The total amount
of retention shall not exceed the amount specified in the SCC.

payments due to the Contractor. Payment of liquidated
damages shall not affect the Contractor’s liabilities.
59.2 If the Intended Completion Date is extended after liquidated
damages have been paid, the Project Manager shall correct
any overpayment of liquidated damages by the Contractor by
adjusting the next payment certificate. The Contractor shall
be paid interest on the overpayment, calculated from the date
of payment to the date of repayment, at the rates specified in
GCC 53.1

progress, upon satisfaction that the Contractor will not
complete the works within the contract period, may issue a
notice to the Contractor requiring the payment of liquidated
damages pursuant to GCC 59.1

Employer in amounts and currencies equal to the advance
payment. The Guarantee shall remain effective until the
advance payment has been repaid, but the amount of the
Guarantee shall be progressively reduced by the amounts
repaid by the Contractor. Interest will not be charged on the
advance payment.
61.2 The Contractor is to use the advance payment only to pay for
Equipment, Plant, Materials, and mobilization expenses
required specifically for execution of the Contract. The
Contractor shall demonstrate that advance payment has been
used in this way by supplying copies of invoices or other
documents to the Project Manager.
