clubbed with the earnest money. In case, tender is not accompanied with the cost of the tender
document, tender may not be considered.
1.1.2 The responsibility of ensuring the completeness of the tender document, including corrigendum if
any, if downloaded from Internet is that of the tenderer. If the tender document submitted is

document will be available in the office ofDy.CEE/NR/JUDW. After award of work an agreement

master copy is noticed, latter shall prevail and binding on the tenderer(s). No claim on this account
shall be entertained.
1.2 Designs for the Work
1.2.1 The general designs/drawings/configuration wherever necessary shall be supplied or are part of

All designs, drawings and manuals submitted by the contractor shall be based on a thorough study
and shall be such that the contractor is satisfied about their suitability. Railway’s approval shall be
based on these considerations. Notwithstanding approval communicated by Railway, during the
progress of the contract, for designs, drawings, prototypes, material and equipment, the ultimate
responsibility for correct execution of work shall be with the contractor unless Railway insists on
adoption of its own design etc. inspite of the contractor not being agreeable to it.

Railway and contractor shall have no claim on them later.
1.2.3 Should the tenderer find any deficiency, discrepancy, error, omission, inconsistency or non-
conformance from the legal perspective/Railway rules, in any of the
designs/drawings/configuration or any tender condition/schedule/form or if there is any doubt
over the interpretation of any issue related to the work, he/she should immediately notify so, in
writing to Railway, so that appropriate corrective action (like sending written instructions to
tenderers, issuing corrigendum, cancelling tender etc.) is taken by Railway in time. If the tenderer
submits his/her tender without bringing to notice any such issue, before tender submission, it shall

Page 9 of 44

document. In no case, once the tender is awarded, the plea of not having the complete detail of
the content of work or not understanding the meaning of any condition etc., shall be entertained
as a ground for not carrying out the work in the period and cost awarded. The tenderer in his/her
own interest is therefore advised to study the tender document in detail and physically visit and
study the site conditions to satisfy him/her of the content of work. While Railway’s representative
will endeavour to accord all necessary assistance to the tenderer during his/her site visit, the
tenderer should ensure that normal Railway working is not affected because of his/her visit and

1.3.2 The quantities indicated in the schedule should be taken for general guidance only. Railway does
not guarantee work under each item of the schedule to the quantity indicated. Moreover Railway
reserves the right to drop any item altogether or to end the entire schedule at any stage, if the

clauses of the General Conditions of Contract.

respective shares as 40%, 30%, 20% & 10% but this firm has not executed any work in its own name and style.
However, the constituent partners have executed the work in earlier partnership firm(S) or as sole proprietor
as under:-
i) Partnership firm “ABZ” having three partners namely “A”, “B” & “Z” with respective shares of
10%,20%&70% has executed a work of value Rs. 10.00 crores earlier.

Page 40 of 44
 ii) Partnership firm “CYX” having three partners namely “C”, “Y”& “X” with respective shares of
50%,30% & 20% has executed a work of value Rs.5.00crores earlier.
iii) Sole proprietorship firm “P” having “D” as sole proprietor has executed a work of value Rs.
2.00crores earlier.

The evaluation of technical and financial eligibility of tendering firm “ABCD” shall be done by taking
proportionate share of credentials of partners A,B,C&D derived from their earlier partnership firms to be
reduced further by their percentage share in tendering firm as calculated in table below:-

Evaluation of Technical Eligibility:

Any one of the partners of “ABCD” tendering firm viz. A,B,C&D should satisfy the technical eligibility
criterion on the basis of his/her proportionate share of credential in the earlier partnership firm reduced
further by his percentage share in the tendering firm. As calculated in above table, the contribution of
partners A,B,C&D towards the credentials of tendering firm “ABCD” will be taken as Rs. 0.40Cr., Rs. 0.60Cr.,
Rs. 0.50Cr., Rs. 0.20 Cr respectively. Thus, in this example the firm “ABCD” is deemed to have executed one
single work of maximum value of Rs.0.60Cr. For the purpose of Technical eligibility criteria.

Evaluation of Financial Eligibility:

The arithmetic sum of the contribution of all the partners of tendering firm “ABCD” derived on the basis of
their respective proportionate share in the earlier partnership firms reduced further by their percentage
share in the tendering firm in this example will be taken as Rs. 1.70 Cr. (i.e. A+B+C+D= 0.40+0.60+0.50+0.20
= 1.70 Cr.). Thus in this example, the firm, “ABCD” is deemed to have received contractual payments of Rs.
1.70Cr. For the purpose of financial eligibility criteria.
