which have satisfactorily met the requirement of clause 27

above in order to determine whether the bidders are qualified

reservation.

respects to the requirements of the Contract, and all proposals

34. Clarification of

price or substance of the bid shall be sought, offered, or permitted except as required to confirm the correction of any arithmetic errors discovered

by the Employer in the evaluation of the bids in accordance with Clause 35.




35

5.

Correction of Errors 35.1 Price Proposals determined to be substantially

responsive will be checked by the Employer for any arithmetic errors. Arithmetic errors

will be rectified on the following basis. If there is a discrepancy between the unit rate and the

total cost per item that is obtained by multiplying the unit rate and quantity, the unit rate shall prevail and the total cost per item will

be corrected unless in the opinion of the Employer there is an obvious misplacement of

the decimal point in the unit rate, in which case the total price as quoted will govern and the unit rate will be corrected. If there is a discrepancy

between the total bid amount and the sum of total costs per item, the sum of the total costs

per item shall prevail and the total bid amount will be corrected. If the bidder has offered a discount expressed as a percentage of the

quoted price, such discount will be applied to the corrected bid price

.

35.2 The amount stated in the Form of Bid for Price Proposal will be adjusted by the Employer in

accordance with the above procedure for the correction of errors and shall be considered as binding upon bidder. If the bidder does not accept

the corrected amount of bid, his bid will be rejected, and the bid security may be forfeited in

accordance with sub-Clause 17.6(b).

36.

37. Evaluation and

Comparison of Price Proposals

NOT USED

37.1 The Employer will evaluate and compare only the bids determined to be substantially responsive in

accordance with Clause 33.

37.2 For plant and equipment, the comparison shall be

of the landed price of plant and equipment offered, (such price to include all costs as well as duties and taxes paid or payable on components

and raw material incorporated or to be incorporated in the plant and equipment), plus the

cost of local transportation, design, civil works, installation, operations and maintenance of the facilities,and all other services required under the

contract.The Employer's comparison will also include the costs resulting from application of the

evaluation procedures described in Sub- Clause

37.4




37.3 The Employer's evaluation of a bid will not take into account:

(i) any Provisional Sum items in the Schedule of

Prices where the Employer has pre-determined its value;or

However, in addition to the bid prices indicated in the Schedule of Prices, the evaluation will take

into account the following costs and factors which will be added to each Bidder's bid price in the evaluation using pricing information available to

the Employer in the manner and to the extent indicated in Sub- Clause 37.4

37.4 Pursuant to Sub-Clause 37.3, the following

evaluation methods will befollowed: (a) Time Schedule: The plant and equipment

covered by this bidding are required to be

shipped and installed and the facilities completed within the period specified in the Appendix to Tender. Bidders submitting bids

which deviate from the time schedule specified will be rejected.

(b) Operating costs: Since operating costs form a major part of the life cycle cost of the Works, these costs will be evaluated in accordance

with the methodology described in Sub-Clause 37.5 and 37.6.




37.5 For the purposes of calculating the operating costs under Sub- clause 37.4 (b) above, plant operation

costs which may vary from bidder to bidder will be considered based upon the manpower cost,

chemical consumption cost and electricity usage charges of the plants and equipment which bidder proposes to supply and install as a part of the

Works, as per the data furnished in Section 6, Technical Schedule XI – Functional Guarantees of

the Plant, Volume 2: Employer’s Requirements of Bid Documents. The following procedure will be adopted for the purpose of arriving at the total

operating cost:

(i) for calculation of the estimated total cost of

electricity consumed by the Works, an electricity unit cost of Rs.5.50 per kWh will be used, which roughly equals the current rate

paid by similar works

(ii) a discount rate of eight percent (8%) per

annum which shall be used to discount to present value all future annual costs calculated for the specified periods.

37.6 The estimated cost of the operating cost loading

will be calculated in accordance with the methodology set out in Technical Schedule VI of Section 6. Bidders are encouraged to offer Plant

and equipment with high efficiencies and lower operating costs at the specified operating

conditions.

37.7 Land required for construction should also be

mentioned and will be counted for evaluation of bid.

37.8 The Employer reserves the right to accept or

reject any variations or deviations. The variations, deviations, and other factors offered in excess of the requirements of the Bid Documents or which

otherwise result in the accrual of unsolicited benefits to the Employer shall not be taken into

account in bid evaluation.

37.9 If the bid of the successful bidder is seriously

unbalanced in relation to or substantially above or below the Engineer’s cost estimate, the Employer

may require the bidder to produce detailed price analyses for any or all items of the Schedule of




Prices, to demonstrate the internal consistency of those prices with the construction methods and schedule proposed. After evaluation of the price

analyses, the Employer may require that the amount of the performance security set forth in

Clause 43 be increased at the expense of the successful bidder to a level sufficient to protect the

Employer against financial loss in the event of default of the successful bidder under the Contract.
