The schedule A consists of 02 items of works which are covered by SRUSSOR 2021.
This schedule basically constitutes items of works for supply and stacking of machine
crushed track ballast conforming to RDSO Specification (IRSGE-1) with latest
correction slips at Railway depot or nominated location. The Railways cash value is
arrived at Rs.125516124.45/- after applying (-) 42.02 % over the USSOR 2021
schedule. The tenderer has quoted at (+) 53.78 % over the Railways cash value
totaling to Rs. 193018696.18/-
When compared to the average of LAR ‘s, the rate quoted by the tenderer is
reasonable. Other factors which has a bearing on the rates of the ballast are
enumerated as follows;
1. The cash value of the ballast has been arrived duly deducting the rate of (-) 42.02
% from the USSOR 2021 for manufacturing, supply and stacking of machine crushed
track ballast conforming to RDSO Specification (IRSGE-1) with latest correction slips at
Railway depot or nominated location. The Lowest eligible tenderer has quoted (+)
53.78 % which is (-) 10.83 % below the basic rate adopted.
2. The period of completion is Eighteen Months and the Rate of Rs. 2193.394 is
quoted for 88000cum. Also the rate taken for comparison is from open line rates for
the period of completion as 12 months in the designated depots and for a quantity of
20,000 cum( approx.)
3. The rates taken as LAR is from the rates adopted recently by Trivandrum Division for
the depots in DEN/South/TVC Jurisdiction. This is the zone of the work where
execution is done by this unit in the work of Doubling of track between Trivandrum and
Kanniyakumari. Hence the rate quoted by the lowest eligible tenderer is comparable.
4. The work is to be done in Kerala state between Trivandrum and Neyyatinkara where
there are no quarries nearby. The material has to come from distant locations in
Tirunelveli or Tenkasi district which is far more distant than the rate adopted for
calculation in USSOR 2021 which is 30 km to 40 km. When compared to the actual
distance the nearest quarry will be at least 80 km to 100 km.
5. When compared to the rates of Open line the rates in construction project will be
higher as the ballast collection in Open line is done in designated quarries where there
is a perennial collection of ballast all round the year. The approaches to the depot are
properly available. The stacks can be of standard size and leading and loading are kept
to the minimum. There is extremely less chances for double handling. However, in
construction projects the collection of ballast is done on the formation.The location of
collection is intermittent and need based which keeps the out turn to a minimum.
6. The approaches to the formation in construction projects are not maintained leading
to cost in maintenance of the approaches which has to be taken in to account for the

rates quoted.
7. The draining out of ballast in construction projects will require multiple handling
which also has to be accounted.
8. There was Six offers against the tender notice and four eligible offers were also
obtained. The rates quoted by the other eligible tenderers are also in the range
between Rs. 2193.39/- to Rs. 2401.49/-. Hence the market trend is in the range
between Rs. 2193.39/- to Rs. 2401.49/-.
9. As the number of offers are more it is seen that sufficient competition is ensured
and there is no possibility of lesser rate than the rate quoted by the eligible L1
tenderer. Also, all these eligible agencies are routine working agencies involved in the
collection of ballast. Hence the rates quoted by the L1 tender is reasonable.
In the light of the deliberations as above the rate quoted by the eligible
L-1 tenderer M/s R K Constructions, Salem at Rs. 2193.39/- per cum is found
to be reasonable.
