boundaries, then exclusion of a firm or individual on the basis of ITT 4.8 (a) above by any country may be
applied to that procurement across other countries involved.
2

signature of contract. Application for exemption from the Competition Authority of Kenya may be accessed
from the website www.cak.go.ke

Tenderer, in accordance with ITT 23.3;
f) Eligibility of Plant and Installation Services: documentary evidence established in
accordance with ITT 16.1 that the Plant and Installation Services offered by the Tenderer in

17.1 establishing the Tenderer's eligibility and qualifications to perform the Contract if its
Tender is accepted;
h) Conformity: documentary evidence in accordance to ITT18 that the Plant and Installation
Services offered by the Tenderer conform to the Tendering document;
i) Subcontractors: list of subcontractors in accordance with ITT18.2; and
j) Any other document required in the TDS.
13.1 In addition to the requirements under ITT 13.1, Tenders submitted by a JV shall include a copy of the
Joint Venture Agreement entered in to by all members. Alternatively, a Form of intent to
execute a Joint Venture Agreement in the event of a successful Tender shall be signed by all members
and submitted with the Tender, together with a copy of the proposed Agreement. The Tenderer shall
serialize pages of all tender documents submitted.
13.2 The Tenderer shall furnish in the Form of Tender information on commissions and gratuities, if any,
paid or to be paid to agents or any other party relating to this Tender
14.1 The Form of Tender and Price Schedules shall be prepared, using the relevant forms furnished in
Section IV, Tendering Forms. The forms must be completed as instructed in each form without any
alterations to the text, and no substitutes shall be accepted except as provided under ITT 21.3. All
blank spaces shall be filled in with the information requested.
15.1 Unless otherwise specified in the TDS, alternative Tenders shall not be considered.
15.2 When alternatives to the Time Schedule are explicitly invited, a statement to that effect will be
included in the TDS, and the method of evaluating different time schedules will be described in
Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria.
15.3 Except as provided under ITT 15.4 below, Tenderers wishing to offer technical alternatives to the
Procuring Entity's requirements as described in the Tendering document must also provide: (i) a price
at which they are prepared to offer a Plant meeting the Procuring Entity's requirements; and (ii) all
information necessary for a complete evaluation of the alternatives by the Procuring Entity, including
drawings, design calculations, technical specifications, breakdown of prices, and proposed
installation methodology and other relevant details. Only the technical alternatives, if any, of the
Tenderer with the Best Evaluated Tender conforming to the basic technical requirements shall be
considered by the Procuring Entity.
15.4 When Tenderers are invited in the TDS to submit alternative technical solutions for specified parts
of the facilities, such parts will be identified in the TDS, as will the method for their evaluation, and
described in Section VII, Procuring Entity's Requirements.
16. Documents Establishing the Eligibility of the Plant and Installation Services
16.1 To establish the eligibility of the Plant and Installation Services in accordance with ITT 5, Tenderers
shall complete the country of origin declarations in the Price Schedule Forms, included in Section IV,
Tendering Forms.
6
17. Documents Establishing the Eligibility and Qualifications of the Tenderer
17.1 To establish its eligibility and qualifications to perform the Contract in accordance with Section III, Evaluation
and Qualification Criteria, the Tenderer shall provide the information requested in the corresponding
information sheets included in Section IV, Tendering Forms.
17.2 Tenderers shall be asked to provide, as part of the data for qualification, such information, including details of
ownership, as shall be required to determine whether, according to the classification established by the
Procuring Entity a supplier or group of suppliers qualifies for a margin of preference. Further the information
will enable the Procuring Entity identify any actual or potential conflict of interest in relation to the procurement
and/or contract management processes, or a possibility of collusion between tenderers, and thereby help to
prevent any corrupt influence in relation to the procurement process or contract management.
17.3 The purpose of the information described in ITT 15.1 above overrides any claims to confidentiality which a
tenderer may have. There can be no circumstances in which it would be justified for a tenderer to keep
information relating to its ownership and control confidential where it is tendering to undertake public sector
work and receive public sector funds. Thus, confidentiality will not be accepted by the Procuring Entity as a
justification for a Tenderer's failure to disclose, or failure to provide required information on its ownership
and control.
17.4 The Tenderer shall provide further documentary proof, information or authorizations that the Procuring Entity
may request in relation to ownership and control which information on any changes to the information which
was provided by the tenderer under ITT 15.1. The obligations to require this information shall continue for the
duration of the procurement process and contract performance and after completion of the contract, if any
change to the information previously provided may reveal a conflict of interest in relation to the award or
management of the contract.
17.5 All information provided by the tenderer pursuant to these requirements must be complete, current and
accurate as at the date of provision to the Procuring Entity. In submitting the information required pursuant to
these requirements, the Tenderer shall warrant that the information submitted is complete, current and accurate
as at the date of submission to the Procuring Entity.
17.6 If a tenderer fails to submit the information required by these requirements, its tenderer will be rejected.
Similarly, if the Procuring Entity is unable, after taking reasonable steps, to verify to a reasonable degree the
information submitted by a tenderer pursuant to these requirements, then the tender will be rejected.
17.7 If information submitted by a tenderer pursuant to these requirements, or obtained by the Procuring Entity
(whether through its own enquiries, through notification by the public or otherwise), shows any conflict of
interest which could materially and improperly benefit the tenderer in relation to the procurement or contract
management process, then:
i) if the procurement process is still ongoing, the tenderer will be disqualified from the
procurement process,
ii) if the contract has been awarded to that tenderer, the contract award will be set aside,
iii) the tenderer will be referred to the relevant law enforcement authorities for investigation of
whether the tenderer or any other persons have committed any criminal offence.
17.8 If a tenderer submits information pursuant to these requirements that is in complete, inaccurate or
out- of-date, or attempts to obstruct the verification process, then the consequences ITT 6.7 will
ensue unless the tenderer can show to the reasonable satisfaction of the Procuring Entity that any
such act was not material, or was due to genuine error which was not attributable to the intentional
act, negligence or recklessness of the tenderer.
18. Documents Establishing the Conformity of the Plant and Installation Services
18.1 The Tenderer shall furnish the information stipulated in Section IV, Tendering Forms in sufficient
7
detail to demonstrate substantial responsiveness of the Tenderers' proposal to the work requirements
and the completion time.
18.2 For major items of Plant and Installation Services as listed by the Procuring Entity in Section III,
Evaluation and Qualification Criteria, which the Tenderer intends to purchase or subcontract, the
Tenderer shall give details of the name and nationality of the proposed Subcontractors, including
manufacturers, for each of those items. In addition, the Tenderer shall include in its Tender information
establishing compliance with the requirements specified by the Procuring Entity for these items.
Quoted rates and prices will be deemed to apply to whichever Subcontractor is appointed, and no
adjustment of the rates and prices will be permitted.
18.3 The Tenderer shall be responsible for ensuring that any Subcontractor proposed complies with the

25.2 The Procuring Entity may, at its discretion, extend the deadline for the submission of Tenders by amending
the Tendering document in accordance with ITT8, in which case all rights and obligations of the Procuring
Entity and Tenderers previously subject to the deadline shall thereafter be subject to the deadline as extended.
26.1 The Procuring Entity shall not consider any Tender that arrives after the deadline for submission of Tenders,
in accordance with ITT 23. Any Tender received by the Procuring Entity after the deadline for submission of
Tenders shall be declared late, rejected, and returned unopened to the Tenderer.
27.1 A Tenderer may withdraw, substitute, or modify its Tender after it has been submitted by sending a written
notice, duly signed by an authorized representative, and shall include a copy of the authorization in accordance
with ITT 21.3, (except that withdrawal notices do not require copies). The corresponding substitution

record shall be distributed to all Tenderers.
29. Confidentiality
29.1 Information relating to the evaluation of Tenders and recommendation of contract award, shall not be disclosed
to Tenderers or any other persons not officially concerned with the Tendering process until information on
Intention to Award the Contract is transmitted to all Tenderers in accordance with ITT 42.
29.2 Any effort by a Tenderer to influence the Procuring Entity in the evaluation of the Tenders or Contract
award decisions may result in the rejection of its Tender.
29.3 Notwithstanding ITT 27.2, from the time of Tender opening to the time of Contract Award, if any Tenderer
wishes to contact the Procuring Entity on any matter related to the Tendering process, it should do so in writing.
30.1 To assist in the examination, evaluation, and comparison of the Tenders, and qualification of the Tenderers,
the Procuring Entity may, at its discretion, ask any Tenderer for a clarification of its Tender. Any clarification
submitted by a Tenderer that is not in response to a request by the Procuring Entity shall not be considered.
The Procuring Entity's request for clarification and the response shall be in writing. No change in the prices
or substance of the Tender shall be sought, offered, or permitted, except to confirm the correction of arithmetic
errors discovered by the Procuring Entity in the evaluation of the Tenders, in accordance with ITT32.
30.2 If a Tenderer does not provide clarifications of its Tender by the date and time set in the Procuring Entity's
request for clarification, its Tender may be rejected.
32.1 The Procuring Entity's determination of a Tender's responsiveness is to be based on the contents of the
Tender itself, as defined in ITT 11.
32.2 A substantially responsive Tender is one that meets the requirements of the Tendering document without
material deviation, reservation, or omission. A material deviation, reservation, or omission is one that:
a) If accepted, would:
13
i) Affect in any substantial way the scope, quality, or performance of the Plant and Installation
Services specified in the Contract; or
ii) Limit in any substantial way, in consistent with the Tendering document, the Procuring Entity's
rights or the Tenderer's obligations under the proposed Contract; or
b) if rectified, would unfairly affect the competitive position of other Tenderers presenting substantially
responsive Tenders.
32.3 The Procuring Entity shall examine the technical aspects of the Tender in particular, to confirm that all
requirements of Section VII, Procuring Entity's Requirements have been met without any material deviation,
reservation, or omission.
32.4 If a Tender is not substantially responsive to the requirements of the Tendering document, it shall be rejected
by the Procuring Entity and may not subsequently be made responsive by correction of the material
deviation, reservation, or omission.
33.1 Provided that a Tender is substantially responsive, the Procuring Entity may waive any nonconformity in the
Tender.
33.2 Provided that a Tender is substantially responsive, the Procuring Entity may request that the Tenderer
submit the necessary information or documentation, within a reasonable period of time, to rectify
nonmaterial non- conformities in the Tender related to documentation requirements. Requesting information or
documentation on such non-conformities shall not be related to any aspect of the price of the Tender. Failure of
the Tenderer to comply with the request may result in the rejection of its Tender.
33.3 Provided that a Tender is substantially responsive, the Procuring Entity shall rectify quantifiable non material
non-conformities related to the Tender Price. To this effect, the Tender Price shall be adjusted, for
comparison purposes only, to reflect the price of a missing or non-conforming item or component in the manner
specified in the TDS.
34.1 Provided that the tender is substantially responsive, the Procuring Entity shall correct arithmetical errors on the
following basis:
i) If there is a discrepancy between the unit price and the total price that is obtained by multiplying the
unit price and quantity, the unit price shall prevail and the total price shall be corrected, unless in the
opinion of the Procuring Entity there is an obvious misplacement of the decimal point in the unit
price, in which case the total price as quoted shall govern and the unit price shall be corrected;
ii) If there is an error in a total corresponding to the addition or subtraction of subtotals, the subtotals
shall prevail and the total shall be corrected; and
iii) If there is a discrepancy between words and figures, the amount in words shall prevail, unless the
amount expressed in words is related to an arithmetic error, in which case the amount in figures shall
prevail subject to (a) and (b) above.
34.2 Any error detected if considered a major deviation that affects the substance of the tender, shall lead to
disqualification of the tender as non-responsive. The method of determining the error as a major deviation shall
be specified in the TDS.
34.3 Corrected tender prices shall not be used in the evaluation of tenders, comparison of tender prices.
34.4 The Procuring Entity shall calculate the difference between the corrected price and tender price and work
out the percentage difference, which will be plus or minus tender price as the case may be; [i.e. (corrected tender
price– tender price)/ tender price X100]. This percentage difference between corrected tender price and tender
price may be used to determine if the error so detected is considered a major deviation that affects the substance
of the tender.
34.5 On award of contract, all payment valuation certificates, variation orders on omissions and additions valued
based on rates in the Bill of Quantities will be adjusted by such a percentage specified in ITT 31.4 to ensure
contractor is not paid less or more relative to the contract price which would be the tender price.
35. Conversion to Single Currency
35.1 For evaluation and comparison purposes, the currency(ies) of the Tender shall be converted into a single
currency as specified in the TDS.
36. Margin of Preference
36.1 A margin of preference may be allowed on locally manufactured goods (plant and equipment) only when the
contract is open to international tendering, where the tender is likely to attract foreign goods and where the
contract exceeds the threshold specified in the Regulations.
36.2 A margin of preference shall not be allowed unless it is specified so in the TDS.
36.3 Contracts procured on basis of international tendering and competition shall not be subject to reservations
exclusive/ specific groups under women, youth and persons living with disability.
36.4 Where it is intended to reserve a contract to a specific group of businesses (these groups are Small and
Medium Enterprises, Women Enterprises, Youth Enterprises and Enterprises of persons living with disability,
as the case may be), and who are appropriately registered as such by a competent authority, a procuring
entity shall ensure that the invitation to tender specifically indicates that only businesses or firms belonging
to the specified group are eligible to tender. Tender shall be reserved to only one group. If not so stated in the
Tender documents, the invitation to tender will be open to all interested tenderers.
37.1 The Procuring Entity shall use the criteria and methodologies listed in this ITT and Section III, Evaluation
and Qualification criteria. No other evaluation criteria or methodologies shall be permitted. By applying the
criteria and methodologies the Procuring Entity shall determine the Best Evaluated Tender. This is the
Tender of the Tenderer that meets the qualification criteria and that has been determined to be:
a) Most responsive to the Tendering document; and
b) The lowest evaluated cost.
37.2 Technical Evaluation. The Procuring Entity will carry out a detailed technical evaluation of the Tenders not
previously rejected to determine whether the technical aspects are incompliance with the Tendering
document. The Tender that does not meet minimum acceptable standards of completeness, consistency and
detail, and the specified minimum (or maximum, as the case may be) requirements for specified functional
guarantees, will be rejected for non-responsiveness. In order to reach its determination, the Procuring Entity
will examine and compare the technical aspects of the Tenders on the basis of the information supplied by
the Tenderers, taking into account the following:
a) Overall completeness and compliance with the Procuring Entity's Requirements; conformity of the Plant
and Installation Services offered with specified performance criteria, including conformity with the
specified minimum (or maximum, as the case may be) requirement corresponding to each functional
guarantee, as indicated in the Specification and in Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria;
suitability of the Plant and Installation Services offered in relation to the environmental and climatic
conditions prevailing at the site; and quality, function and operation of any process control concept
included in the Tender;
b) type, quantity and long-term availability of mandatory and recommended spare parts and maintenance
services; and
c) other relevant factors, if any, listed in Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria.
37.3 Where alternative technical solutions have been allowed in accordance with ITT 13, and offered by the
Tenderer, the Procuring Entity will make a similar evaluation of the alternatives. Where alternatives have not
been allowed but have been offered, they shall be ignored.
37.4 Economic Evaluation. To evaluate a Tender, the Procuring Entity shall consider the following:
a) the Tender price, excluding provisional sums and the provision, if any, for contingencies in the Price
Schedules;
b) price adjustment due to discounts offered in accordance with ITT 17.11;
c) price adjustment due to quantifiable non material non-conformities in accordance with ITT 31.3;
d) converting the amount resulting from applying (a) to (c) above, if relevant, to a single currency in
15
accordance with ITT 33; and
e) the evaluation factors specified in the TDS and in Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria.
37.5 If price adjustment is allowed in accordance with ITT 17.7, the estimated effect of the price adjustment
provisions of the Conditions of Contract, applied over the period of execution of the Contract, shall not be
taken into account in Tender evaluation.
37.6 In the case of multiple contracts or lots, Tenderers are allowed to tender for one or more lots and the
methodology to determine the lowest evaluated cost of the lot (contract) and for combinations, including any
discounts offered in the Form of Tender, is specified in Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria.
38.1 The Procuring Entity shall compare the evaluated costs of all substantially responsive Tenders established in
accordance with ITT 35.4 to determine the Tender that has the lowest evaluated cost.
39.1 An Abnormally Low Tender is one where the Tender price, in combination with other elements of the
Tender, appears so low that it raises material concerns as to the capability of the Tenderer to perform the
Contract for the offered Tender Price or that genuine competition between Tenderers is compromised.
39.2 In the event of identification of a potentially Abnormally Low Tender, the Procuring Entity shall seek
written clarifications from the Tenderer, including detailed price analyses of its Tender price in correlation to
the subject matter of the contract, scope, proposed methodology, schedule, allocation of risks and
responsibilities and any other requirements of the Tendering document.
39.3 After evaluation of the price analyses, in the event that the Procuring Entity determines that the Tenderer has
failed to demonstrate its capability to deliver the contract for the offered tender price, the Procuring Entity
shall reject the Tender.
39.4 An abnormally high price is one where the tender price, in combination with other constituent elements of
the Tender, appears unreasonably too high to the extent that the Procuring Entity is concerned that it (the
Procuring Entity) may not be getting value for money or it may be paying too high a price for the contract
compared with market prices or that genuine competition between Tenderers is compromised.
39.5 In case of an abnormally high tender price, the Procuring Entity shall make a survey of the market prices, check
if the estimated cost of the contract is correct and review the Tender Documents to check if the specifications,
scope of work and conditions of contract are contributory to the abnormally high tenders. The Procuring Entity
may also seek written clarification from the tenderer on the reason for the high tender price. The Procuring
Entity shall proceed as follows:
i) If the tender price is abnormally high based on wrong estimated cost of the contract, the Procuring
Entity mayacceptornotaccept the tender depending on the Procuring Entity's budget considerations.
ii) If specifications, scope of work and/or conditions of contract are contributory to the abnormally high
tender prices, the Procuring Entity shall reject all tenders and may retender for the contract based on
revised estimates, specifications, scope of work and conditions of contract, as the case may be.
39.6 If the Procuring Entity determines that the Tender Price is abnormally too high because genuine competition
betweentenderersiscompromised (often due to collusion, corruption or other manipulations), the Procuring
Entity shall reject all Tenders and shall institute or cause competent Government Agencies to institute an
investigation on the cause of the compromise, before retendering.
40.1 If the Tender that is evaluated as the lowest evaluated cost is, in the Procuring Entity's opinion, seriously
unbalanced or front loaded the Procuring Entity may require the Tenderer to provide written clarifications.
Clarifications may include detailed price analyses to demonstrate the consistency of the Tender prices with
the scope of works, proposed methodology, schedule and any other requirements of the Tendering document.
40.2 After the evaluation of the information and detailed price analyses presented by the Tenderer, the Procuring
Entity may:
a) Accept the Tender; or
16
b) If appropriate, require that the total amount of the Performance Security be increased, at the expense
of the Tenderer, to a level not exceeding twenty percent (10%) of the Contract Price; or
c) Reject the Tender.
41.1 The Procuring Entity shall determine to its satisfaction whether the Tenderer that is selected as having
submitted the lowest evaluated cost and substantially responsive Tender is eligible and meets the qualifying
criteria specified in Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria.
41.2 The determination shall be based upon an examination of the documentary evidence of the Tenderer's
qualifications submitted by the Tenderer, pursuant to ITT 15.1. The determination shall not take into
consideration the qualifications of other firms such as the Tenderer's subsidiaries, parent entities, affiliates,
subcontractors (other than Specialized Subcontractors if permitted in the Tendering document) or any other
firm (s) different from the Tenderer.
41.3 An affirmative determination shall be a prerequisite for award of the Contract to the Tenderer. A negative
determination shall result in disqualification of the Tender, in which event the Procuring Entity shall proceed
to the Tenderer who offers a substantially responsive Tender with the next lowest evaluated cost to make a
similar determination of that Tenderer's qualifications to perform satisfactorily.
41.4 The capabilities of the manufacturers and subcontractors proposed in its Tender to be used by the Tenderer
with the Lowest Evaluated Tender for identified major items of supply or services will also be evaluated for
acceptability in accordance with Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria. Their participation should
be confirmed with a Form of intent between the parties, as needed. Should a manufacturer or subcontractor
be determined to be unacceptable, the Tender will not be rejected, but the Tenderer will be required to
substitute an acceptable manufacturer or subcontractor without any change to the Tender price. Prior to
signing the Contract,
The corresponding Appendix to the Contract Agreement shall be completed, listing the approved
manufacturers or subcontractors for each item concerned.
42. Procuring Entity's right to Accept Any Tender and to Reject Any or All Tenders
42.1 The Procuring Entity reserves the right to accept or reject any Tender, and to annul the Tendering process
and reject all Tenders at any time prior to Contract Award, without there by incurring any liability to
Tenderers. In case of annulment, all Tenders submitted and specifically, Tender securities shall be promptly
returned to the Tenderers.
E. Award of Contract
43.3 Subject to ITT 40, the Procuring Entity shall award the Contract to the successful Tenderer. This is the
Tenderer whose Tender has been determined to be the Lowest Evaluated Tender. This is the Tender of the
Tenderer that meets the qualification criteria and whose Tender has been determined to be:
a) Substantially responsive to the Tendering Document; and
b) The lowest evaluated cost
44.1 When a Standstill Period applies, it shall commence when the Procuring Entity has transmitted to each Tenderer
the Notification of Intention to Award the Contract to the successful Tenderer. The Notification of Intention
to Award shall contain, at a minimum, the following information:
a) The name and address of the Tenderer submitting the successful Tender;
b) The Contract price of the successful Tender;

should use the Standard Tender Evaluation Report for Goods and Works for evaluating Tenders.
1.4 The Procuring Entity shall use the criteria and methodologies listed in this Section to evaluate tenders and
arrive at the Lowest Evaluated Tender. The tender that (i) meets the qualification criteria, (ii) has been
determined to be substantially responsive to the Tender Documents, and (iii) is determined to have the Lowest
Evaluated Tender price shall be selected for award of contract.
This will involve assessing whether bidders for works have complied with submission requirements and have also

ii) Alternative technical solutions for specified parts
The acceptability of alternative technical solutions for parts of the facilities, if permitted under
ITT 13.4, will be determined as follows:
………………………………………………………………………………………
iii) Life Cycle Costs: Not Applicable
Since the operating and maintenance costs of the facilities being procured form a major part of the
life cycle cost of the facilities, these costs will be evaluated according to the principles given here
after, including the cost of spare parts for the initial period of operation stated below and based on
prices furnished by each Tenderer in Price Schedule Nos. 1 and 2, as well as on past experience of
the Procuring Entity or other Procuring Entity's similarly placed. Such costs shall be added to the
Tender price for evaluation. The operating and maintenance costs factors for calculation of the life
cycle cost are:

For the purposes of evaluation, for each percentage point that the functional guarantee of the
proposed Plant and Installation Services is below the norm specified in the Specification and in the
above table, but above the minimum acceptable levels also specified there in, an adjustment of will be
added to the Tender price. If the drop below the norm or the excess above the minimum acceptable
levels is less than one percent, the adjustment will be appropriated accordingly.
Where Tenders include the under taking of work or the provision of services or facilities by the
Procuring Entity in excess of the provisions allowed for in the Tendering document, the Procuring Entity
shall assess the costs of such additional work, services and/or facilities during the duration of the
contract. Such costs shall be added to the Tender price for evaluation.
vii) Specific addition criteria The relevant evaluation method, if any, shall be as follows.
..................................................................................................................................................................
Any adjustments in price that result from the above procedures shall be added, for purposes of
comparative evaluation only, to arrive at an “Evaluated Tender Price.” Tender prices quoted by
Tenderers shall remain unaltered.
4.1 Multiple contracts will be permitted in accordance with ITT 35.4. Tenderers are evaluated on basis of Lots
and the lowest evaluated tenderer identified for each Lot. The Procuring Entity will select one Option of the
two Options listed below for award of Contracts.
OPTION1
i) If a tenderer wins only one Lot, the tenderer will be awarded a contract for that Lot, provided the
tenderer meets the Eligibility and Qualification Criteria for that Lot.
ii) If a tenderer wins more than one Lot, the tender will be awarded contracts for all won Lots, provided
the tenderer meets the aggregate Eligibility and Qualification Criteria for all the Lots. The tenderer
will be awarded the combination of Lots for which the tenderer qualifies and the others will be
considered for award to second lowest the tenderers.
OPTION 2
The Procuring Entity will consider all possible combinations of won Lots [contract(s)] and determine the
combinations with the lowest evaluated price. Tenders will then be awarded to the Tenderer or Tenderers in
the combinations provided the tenderer meets the aggregate Eligibility and Qualification Criteria for all the
won Lots.
5.1 If the TDS so specifies, the Procuring Entity will grant a margin of preference of 15% (fifteen percent) to
Tenderers offering goods manufactured, mined, extracted, grown, assembled or semi-processed in Kenya.
Goods assembled or semi-processed in Kenya shall have a local content of not less than 40%.
5.2 The margin of preference will be applied in accordance with, and subject to, the following provisions:
a Tenderers applying for such preference on goods offered shall be asked to provide, as part of the data
for qualification, such information, including details of the goods produced in Kenya, so as to determine
whether, according to the classification established by the Procuring Entity, a particular category of
goods or group of goods qualifies for a margin of preference.
b After Tenders have been received and reviewed by the Procuring Entity, goods offered in the
responsive Tenders shall be assessed to ascertain they are manufactured, mined, extracted, grown,
assembled or semi-processed in Kenya. Responsive tenders shall be classified in to the following groups:
i) Group A: Tenders offering goods manufactured in Kenya, for which (a) labor, raw materials,
and components from within Kenya account for more than forty (40) percent of the Ex-Works price;
and the production facility in which they will be manufactured or assembled has been engaged in
manufacturing or assembling such goods at least since the date of Tender submission date;
28
ii) Group B: All other Tenders offering Goods manufactured in Kenya;
iii) Group C: Tenders offering Goods manufactured outside Kenya that have been already imported
or that will be imported.
5.3 To facilitate this classification by the Procuring Entity, the tenderer shall complete whichever version of the
Price Schedule furnished in the Tendering document is appropriate, provided however, that the completion
of an in correct version of the Price Schedule by the Tenderer shall not result in rejection of its Tender, but
merely in the Procuring Entity's reclassification of the Tender into its appropriate Tender group.
5.4 The Tenders in each group will then be compared to determine the Tender with the lowest evaluated cost in
that group. The lowest evaluated cost Tender from each group shall then be compared with each other and if
as a result of this comparison a Tender from Group A or Group B is the lowest, it shall be selected for the
award.
5.5 If as a result of the preceding comparison, a Tender from Group C is the lowest evaluated cost, an amount
equal to or 15% of the respective tender price, including unconditional discounts and excluding provisional
sums, if any, shall be added to the evaluated price offered in each tender from Group C. If the tender from
Group C is still the lowest tender, it shall be selected for award. If not, the lowest evaluated tender from
Group A or B based on the first evaluation price shall be selected.
The Procuring Entity shall consider Tenders offered for alternatives as specified in Part 2- Procuring Entity's
requirements. Only the technical alternatives, if any, of the Tenderer with the Best Evaluated Tender
conforming to the basic technical requirements shall be considered by the Procuring Entity.
b) Pending Litigation
Financial position and prospective long-term profitability of the Single Tenderer, and in the case
the Tenderer is a JV, of each member of the JV, shall remain sound according to criteria
established with respect to Financial Capability under Paragraph (i) above i fall pending
litigation will be resolved against the Tenderer. Tenderer shall provide information on pending
litigations in the appropriate form.
c) Litigation History
There shall be no consistent history of court/ arbitral award decisions against the Tenderer, in
29
the last 5 years. All parties to the contract shall furnish the information in the appropriate
form about any litigation or arbitration resulting from contracts completed or ongoing under
its execution over the years specified. A consistent history of awards against the Tenderer or

Price Adjustment
Where the Contract Period (excluding the Defects Liability Period) exceeds eighteen (18) months, it is normal
procedure that prices payable to the Contractor shall be subject to adjustment during the performance of the
Contract to reflect changes occurring in the cost of labor and material components. In such cases the Tendering
document shall include in this form a formula of the following general type, pursuant to SCC Sub-Clause11.2.
Where Contracts are of a shorter duration than eighteen (18) months or in cases where there is to be no Price
Adjustment, the following provision shall not be included. Instead, it shall be indicated under this form that the

1Specify currency in accordance with ITT 18. Create and use as many columns for Foreign Currency requirement as there are foreign currencies
47
Sample Price Adjustment Formula
If in accordance with GCC 11.2, prices shall be adjustable, the following method shall be used to calculate the price
adjustment:
Prices payable to the Contractor, in accordance with the Contract, shall be subject to adjustment during
performance of the Contract to reflect changes in the cost of labor and material components, in accordance with the
following formula:
L1 M1
P1 =P0 (a +b +c )−P0
L0 M0
P1 = adjustment amount payable to the
Contractor
The Tenderer shall indicate the source of labor, source of exchange rate and materials indices and the base date
indices in its Tender.
The base date shall be the date thirty (30) days prior to the Tender closing date.
The date of adjustment shall be the mid-point of the period of manufacture or installation of component or
Plant. The following conditions shall apply:
(a) No price increase will be allowed beyond the original delivery date unless covered by an extension of time
awarded by the Procuring Entity under the terms of the Contract. No price increase will be allowed for
periods of delay for which the Contractor is responsible. The Procuring Entity will, however, be entitled to
any price decrease occurring during such periods of delay.
(b) If the currency in which the Contract price, P0, is expressed is different from the currency of the country of
origin of the labor and/or materials indices, a correction factor will be applied to avoid incorrect adjustments
of the Contract price. The correction factor shall be: Z0/Z1, 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 P0 on the Base date, and
Z1=the number of units of currency of the origin of the indices which equal to one unit of the currency of the
Contract Price P0 on the Date of Adjustment.
(c) No price adjustment shall be payable on the portion of the Contract price paid to the Contractor as an advance
payment.

other than climatic conditions, or artificial obstructions that could not have been reasonably foreseen prior
to the date of the Contract Agreement by an experienced contractor on the basis of reasonable examination
of the data relating to the Facilities including any data as to boring tests, provided by the Procuring Entity,
and on the basis of information that it could have obtained from a visual inspection of the Site if access
thereto was available, or other data readily available to it relating to the Facilities, and if the Contractor
determines that it will in consequence of such conditions or obstructions incur additional cost and expense or
require additional time to perform its obligations under the Contract that would not have been required if such
physical conditions or artificial obstructions had not been encountered, the Contractor shall promptly, and
before performing additional work or using additional Plant or Contractor's Equipment, notify the Project
Manager in writing of

regulation, ordinance, order or by-law having the force of law is enacted, promulgated, abrogated or
changed which shall be deemed to include any change in interpretation or application by the competent
authorities, that subsequently affects the costs and expenses of the Contractor and/or the Time for Completion,
the Contract Price shall be correspondingly increased or decreased, and/or the Time for Completion shall be
reasonably adjusted to the extent that the Contractor has thereby been affected in the performance of any of
its obligations under the Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such additional or reduced costs shall
not be separately paid or credited if the same has already been accounted for in the price adjustment
provisions where applicable, in accordance with the SCC pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause
11.2.
37.1 “Force Majeure” shall mean any event beyond the reasonable control of the Procuring Entity or of the

circumstances thereof within fourteen (14) days after the occurrence of such event.
37.3 The Party who has given such notice shall be excused from the performance or punctual performance of its
obligations under the Contract for so long as the relevant event of Force Majeure continues and to the
extent that such Party's performance is prevented, hindered or delayed. The Time for Completion shall be
extended in accordance with GCC Clause 40.

b) give rise to any claim for damages or additional cost or expense occasioned thereby, subject to GCC
Sub-Clauses 32.2, 38.3 and 38.4
if and to the extent that such delay or nonperformance is caused by the occurrence of an event of Force
Majeure.
37.6 If the performance of the Contract is substantially prevented, hindered or delayed for a single period of
more than sixty (60) days or an aggregate period of more than one hundred and twenty (120) days on account
of one or more events of Force Majeure during the currency of the Contract, the Parties will attempt
to develop a mutually satisfactory solution, failing which either Party may terminate the Contract by giving
a notice to the other, but without prejudice to either Party's right to terminate the Contract under GCC Sub-
Clause 38.5.
37.7 In the event of termination pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause 37.6, the rights and obligations of the Procuring
Entity and the Contractor shall be as specified in GCC Sub-Clauses 42.1.2 and 42.1.3.

38.2 Notwithstanding anything contained in the Contract, the Contractor shall have no liability whatsoever for or with
respect to
a) destruction of or damage to Facilities, Plant, or any part thereof;
b) destruction of or damage to property of the Procuring Entity or any third Party; or

completion of the Facilities
b) replacing or making good any Contractor's Equipment or other property of the Contractor so destroyed or
damaged

If the Procuring Entity does not require the Contractor to replace or make good any such destruction or
damage to the Facilities, the Procuring Entity shall either request a change in accordance with GCC Clause
39, excluding the performance of that part of the Facilities thereby destroyed or damaged or, where the
loss, destruction or damage affects a substantial part of the Facilities, shall terminate the Contract, pursuant
to GCC Sub-Clause 42.1.
If the Procuring Entity requires the Contractor to replace or make good on any such destruction or damage
to the Facilities, the Time for Completion shall be extended in accordance with GCC 40.
38.4 Notwithstanding anything contained in the Contract, the Procuring Entity shall pay the Contractor for any
increased costs or incidentals to the execution of the Contract that are in any way attributable to, consequent on,
resulting from, or in any way connected with any War Risks, provided that the Contractor shall as soon as
practicable notify the Procuring Entity in writing of any such increased cost.
38.5 If during the performance of the Contract any War Risks shall occur that financially or otherwise materially affect
the execution of the Contract by the Contractor, the Contractor shall use its reasonable efforts to execute the
Contract with due and proper consideration given to the safety of its and its Subcontractors' personnel engaged in
the work on the Facilities, provided, however, that if the execution of the work on the Facilities becomes
impossible or is substantially prevented for a single period of more than sixty (60) days or an aggregate period of
more than one hundred and twenty (120) days on account of any War Risks, the Parties will attempt to develop a
mutually satisfactory solution, failing which either Party may terminate the Contract by giving a notice to the
other.
38.6 In the event of termination pursuant to GCC Sub-Clauses 38.3 or 38.5, the rights and obligations of the Procuring
Entity and the Contractor shall be specified in GCC Sub-Clauses 42.1.2 and 42.1.3. A. Change in Contract
Elements.
39.1.1 Subject to GCC Sub-Clauses 39.2.5 and 39.2.7, the Procuring Entity shall have the right to propose, and
subsequently require, that the Project Manager order the Contractor from time to time during the
performance of the Contract to make any change, modification, addition or deletion to, in or from the
Facilities here in after called “Change”, provided that such Change falls within the general scope of the
Facilities and does not constitute unrelated work and that it is technically practicable, taking into account
both the state of advancement of the Facilities and the technical compatibility of the Change envisaged
with the nature of the Facilities as specified in the Contract.
39.1.2 Value Engineering: The Contractor may prepare, at its own cost, a value engineering proposal at any time
during the performance of the contract. The value engineering proposal shall, at a minimum, include the
following;
a) The proposed change (s), and a description of the difference to the existing contract requirements;
b) a full cost/benefit analysis of the proposed change(s) including a description and estimate of costs
(including life cycle costs) the Procuring Entity may incur in implementing the value engineering
proposal; and
112
c) a description of any effect (s) of the change on performance/ functionality.
The Procuring Entity may accept the value engineering proposal if the proposal demonstrates benefits that:
a) accelerates the delivery period; or
b) reduces the Contract Price or the life cycle costs to the Procuring Entity; or
c) improves the quality, efficiency, safety or sustain ability of the Facilities; or
d) yields any other benefits to the Procuring Entity, without compromising the necessary functions of the
Facilities.
If the value engineering proposal is approved by the Procuring Entity and results in:
(a) a reduction of the Contract Price; the amount to be paid to the Contractor shall be the percentage
specified in the SCC of the reduction in the Contract Price; or
(b) an increase in the Contract Price; but results in a reduction in life cycle costs due to any benefit
described in (a) to (d) above, the amount to be paid to the Contractor shall be the full increase in the
Contract Price.
39.1.3 Notwithstanding GCC Sub-Clauses 39.1.1 and 39.1.2, no change made necessary because of any default of
the Contractor in the performance of its obligations under the Contract shall be deemed to be a Change,
and such change shall not result in any adjustment of the Contract Price or the Time for Completion.
39.1.4 The procedure on how to proceed with and execute Changes is specified in GCC Sub-Clauses 39.2 and
39.3, and further details and forms are provided in the Procuring Entity's Requirements (Forms and
Procedures).
39.2.1 If the Procuring Entity proposes a Change pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause 39.1.1, it shall send to the
Contractor a “Request for Change Proposal,” requiring the Contractor to prepare and furnish to the Project
Manager as soon as reasonably practicable a “Change Proposal,” which shall include the following:
a) Brief description of the Change
b) Effect on the Time for Completion
c) Estimated cost of the Change
d) Effect on Functional Guarantees (if any)
e) Effect on the Facilities
f) Effect on any other provisions of the Contract.
39.2.2 Prior to preparing and submitting the “Change Proposal,” the Contractor shall submit to the Project
Manager an “Estimate for Change Proposal,” which shall be an estimate of the cost of preparing and
submitting the Change Proposal.
Upon receipt of the Contractor's Estimate for Change Proposal, the Procuring Entity shall do one of the
following:
• Accept the Contractor's estimate with instructions to the Contractor to proceed with the preparation of
the Change Proposal
• Advise the Contractor of any part of its Estimate for Change Proposal that is unacceptable and request
the Contractor to review its estimate
• Advise the Contractor that the Procuring Entity does not intend to proceed with the Change.
39.2.3 Upon receipt of the Procuring Entity's instruction to proceed under GCC Sub-Clause 39.2.2 (a), the
Contractor shall, with proper expedition, proceed with the preparation of the Change Proposal, in
accordance with GCC Sub-Clause 39.2.1.
39.2.4 The pricing of any Change shall, as far as practicable, be calculated in accordance with the rates and prices
included in the Contract. If such rates and prices are inequitable, the Parties there to shall agree on specific
rates for the valuation of the Change.
39.1.5 If before or during the preparation of the Change Proposal it becomes apparent that the aggregate effect of
compliance there with and with all other Change Orders that have already become binding upon the
Contractor under this GCC Clause 39 would be to increase or decrease the Contract Price as originally set
for thin Article 2 (Contract Price) of the Contract Agreement by more than fifteen percent (15%), the
Contractor may give a written notice of objection there to prior to furnishing the Change Proposal as
aforesaid. If the Procuring Entity accepts the Contractor's objection, the Procuring Entity shall withdraw
the proposed Change and shall notify the Contractor in writing thereof.
113
The Contractor's failure to so object shall neither affect its right to object to any subsequent requested Changes
or Change Orders here in, nor affect its right to take in to account, when making such subsequent objection,
the percentage increase or decrease in the Contract Price that any Change not objected to by the Contractor
represents.
39.1.6 Upon receipt of the Change Proposal, the Procuring Entity and the Contractor shall mutually agree upon all
matters therein contained. Within fourteen (14) days after such agreement, the Procuring Entity shall, if it
intends to proceed with the Change, issue the Contractor with a Change Order.
If the Procuring Entity is unable to reach a decision within fourteen (14) days, it shall notify the Contractor
with details of when the Contractor can expect a decision.
If the Procuring Entity decides not to proceed with the Change for whatever reason, it shall, within the said
period of fourteen (14) days, notify the Contractor accordingly. Under such circumstances, the Contractor
shall be entitled to reimbursement of all costs reasonably incurred by it in the preparation of the Change
Proposal, provided that these do not exceed the amount given by the Contractor in its Estimate for Change
Proposal submitted in accordance with GCC Sub-Clause 39.2.2.
39.1.7 If the Procuring Entity and the Contractor cannot reach agreement on the price for the Change, an equitable
adjustment to the Time for Completion, or any other matters identified in the Change Proposal, the
Procuring Entity may nevertheless instruct the Contractor to proceed with the Change by issue of a
“Pending Agreement Change Order.”
Upon receipt of a Pending Agreement Change Order, the Contractor shall immediately proceed with effecting
the Changes covered by such Order. The Parties shall there after attempt to reach agreement on the
outstanding issues under the Change Proposal.
If the Parties cannot reach agreement within sixty (60) days from the date of issue of the Pending
Agreement Change Order, then the matter may be referred to the Dispute Board in accordance with the
provisions of GCC Sub-Clause 46.1.
39.1.9 If the Contractor proposes a Change pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause 39.1.2, the Contractor shall submit to the
Project Manager a written “Application for Change Proposal,” giving reasons for the proposed Change and
including the information specified in GCC Sub-Clause 39.1.2.
39.1.10 Upon receipt of the Application for Change Proposal, the Parties shall follow the procedures outlined in
GCC Sub-Clauses 39.2.6 and 39.2.7. However, the Contractor shall not be entitled to recover the costs of
preparing the Application for Change Proposal.
40.1 The Time(s) for Completion specified in the SCC pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause 8.2 shall be extended
if the Contractor is delayed or impeded in the performance of any of its obligations under the Contract by
reason of any of the following:
a) any Change in the Facilities as provided in GCC Clause 39
b) any occurrence of Force Majeure as provided in GCC Clause 37, unforeseen conditions as provided in
GCC Clause 35, or other occurrence of any of the matters specified or referred to in paragraphs (a), (b)
and (c) of GCC Sub-Clause 32.2
c) Any suspension order given by the Procuring Entity under GCC Clause 41 here of or reduction in the
rate of progress pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause 41.2 or
• Any changes in laws and regulations as provided in GCC Clause 36 or
• Any default or breach of the Contract by the Procuring Entity, Appendix to the Contract Agreement
titled, or any activity, actor omission of the Procuring Entity, or the Project Manager, or any other
contractors employed by the Procuring Entity, or
• Any delay on the part of a Subcontractor, provided such delay is due to a cause for which the
Contractor himself would have been entitled to an extension of time under this sub-clause, or
• Delays attributable to the Procuring Entity or caused by customs, or
h) any other matter specifically mentioned in the Contract by such period as shall be fair and reasonable
114
in all the circumstances and as shall fairly reflect the delay or impediment sustained by the
Contractor.
40.2 Except where otherwise specifically provided in the Contract, the Contractor shall submit to the
Project Manager a notice of a claim for an extension of the Time for Completion, together with particulars
of the event or circumstance justifying such extension as soon as reasonably practicable after the
commencement of such event or circumstance. As soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of such
notice and supporting particulars of the claim, the Procuring Entity and the Contractor shall agree upon
the period of such extension. In the event that the Contractor does not accept the Procuring Entity's
estimate of a fair and reasonable time extension, the Contractor shall be entitled to refer the matter to a
Dispute Board, pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause 46.1.
40.3 The Contractor shall at all times use its reasonable efforts to minimize any delay in the performance
of its obligations under the Contract.
40.4 In all cases where the Contractor has given a notice of a claim for an extension of time under GCC
40.2, the Contractor shall consult with the Project Manager in order to determine the steps (if any) which
can be taken to overcome or minimize the actual or anticipated delay. The Contractor shall there after
comply with all reasonable instructions which the Project Manager shall give in order to minimize such
delay. If compliance with such instructions shall cause the Contractor to incur extra costs and the
Contractor is entitled to an extension of time under GCC 40.1, the amount of such extra costs shall be added
to the Contract Price.
41 Suspension
41.1 Procuring Entity may request the Project Manager, by notice to the Contractor, to order the Contractor to
suspend performance of any or all of its obligations under the Contract. Such notice shall specify the
obligation of which performance is to be suspended, the effective date of the suspension and the reasons
therefor. The Contractor shall thereupon suspend performance of such obligation, except those obligations
necessary for the care or preservation of the Facilities, until ordered in writing to resume such
performance by the Project Manager.
If, by virtue of a suspension order given by the Project Manager, other than by reason of the Contractor's
default or breach of the Contract, the Contractor's performance of any of its obligations is suspended for
an aggregate period of more than ninety (90) days, then at any time there after and provided that at that
time such performance is still suspended, the Contractor may give a notice to the Project Manager
requiring that the Procuring Entity shall, within twenty-eight (28) days of receipt of the notice, order the
resumption of such performance or request and subsequently order a change in accordance with GCC Clause
39, excluding the performance of the suspended obligations from the Contract.
41.2 If the Procuring Entity fails to do so within such period, the Contractor may, by a further notice to the Project
Manager, elect to treat the suspension, where it affects apart only of the Facilities, as a deletion of such part
in accordance with GCC Clause 39 or, where it affects the whole of the Facilities, as termination of the
Contract under GCC Sub-Clause.
41.3 If
a. Procuring Entity has failed to pay the Contractor any sum due under the Contract within the
specified period, has failed to approve any invoice or supporting documents without just cause pursuant
to the Appendix to the Contract Agreement titled Terms and Procedures of Payment, or commits a
substantial breach of the Contract, the Contractor may give a notice to the Procuring Entity that
requires payment of such sum, with interest there on as stipulated in GCC Sub-Clause
12.3, requires approval of such invoice or supporting documents, or specifies the breach and
requires the Procuring Entity to remedy the same, as the case may be. If the Procuring Entity fails to
pay such sum together with such interest, fails to approve such invoice or supporting documents or
give its reasons for withholding such approval, or fails to remedy the breach or take steps to remedy
the breach within fourteen (14) days after receipt of the Contractor's notice or
b. The Contractor is unable to carry out any of its obligations under the Contract for any reason
attributable to the Procuring Entity, including but not limited to the Procuring Entity's failure to
provide possession of or access to the Site or other areas in accordance with GCC Sub-Clause 10.2,
or failure to obtain any governmental permit necessary for the execution and/or completion of the
115
Facilities, then the Contractor may by fourteen (14) days' notice to the Procuring Entity suspend
performance of all or any of its obligations under the Contract, or reduce the rate of progress.
41.3 If the Contractor's performance of its obligations is suspended or the rate of progress is reduced pursuant to this
GCC Clause 41, then the Time for Completion shall be extended in accordance with GCC Sub-Clause 40.1,
and any and all additional costs or expenses incurred by the Contractor as a result of such suspension or
reduction shall be paid by the Procuring Entity to the Contractor in addition to the Contract Price, except in the
case of suspension order or reduction in the rate of progress by reason of the Contractor's default or breach of
the Contract.
41.4 During the period of suspension, the Contractor shall not remove from the Site any Plant, any part of the
Facilities or any Contractor's Equipment, without the prior written consent of the Procuring Entity.

Contractor or its Subcontractors as of the date of termination in connection with the Facilities.
42.2.4 The Procuring Entity may enter upon the Site, expel the Contractor, and complete the Facilities itself or by
employing any third Party. The Procuring Entity may, to the exclusion of any right of the Contractor over
the same, take over and use with the payment of a fair rental rate to the Contractor, with all the

135
APPENDIX 2. PRICE ADJUSTMENT
Where the Contract Period (excluding the Defects Liability Period) exceeds eighteen (18) months,
it is normal procedure that prices payable to the Contractor shall be subject to adjustment during
the performance of the Contract to reflect changes occurring in the cost of labor and material
components. In such cases the Tendering document shall include in this Appendix 2 a formula of
the following general type, pursuant to GCC Sub-Clause 11.2.
Where Contracts are of a shorter duration than eighteen (18) months or in cases where there is to be
no Price Adjustment, the following provision shall not be included. Instead, it shall be indicated
under this Appendix 2 that the prices are to remain firm and fixed for the duration of the Contract.
If in accordance with GCC 11.2, prices shall be adjustable, the following method shall be used to calculate the price
adjustment:
Prices payable to the Contractor, in accordance with the Contract, shall be subject to adjustment during performance of
the Contract to reflect changes in the cost of labor and material components, in accordance with the following formula:
L1 M1
P1 = P 0 (a + b +c ) − P0
L0 M0
in which:
P1 = adjustment amount payable to the Contractor
The Tenderer shall indicate the source of labor and materials indices, source of exchange rates and the base date indices
in its Tender.
The base date shall be the date twenty-eight (28) days prior to the Tender closing date.
The date of adjustment shall be the mid-point of the period of manufacture or installation of component or Plant.
(a) No price increase will be allowed beyond the original delivery date unless covered by an extension of time awarded by the
Procuring Entity under the terms of the Contract. No price increase will be allowed for periods of delay for which the Contractor is
responsible. The Procuring Entity will, however, be entitled to any price decrease occurring during such periods of delay.
136
(b) If the currency in which the Contract price, P0, is expressed is different from the currency of the country of origin of the labor
and/or materials indices, a correction factor will be applied to avoid incorrect adjustments of the Contract price. The correction
factor shall be: Z0 / Z1, 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 P0 on the Base date, and
Z1 = the number of units of currency of the origin of the indices which equal to one unit of the currency of the Contract
Price P0 on the Date of Adjustment.
(c) No price adjustment shall be payable on the portion of the Contract price paid to the Contractor as an advance payment.
137
APPENDIX 3. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
