A procurement that is not in the published plan can still be made, but it is shown as an exception on
the plans page with this office’s name against it.
Scope is written once and flows into the notice, the bidding document and the contract.
Built from the Standard Bidding Document (Works) 2081. Three ITB clauses differ from the standard,
each with the reason the drafter gave; the approver sees all three together.

Bidding period of 15 days is below the 30 days Regulation 2064 r.31 requires for works above रु २० करोड.
A short period is the commonest ground on which a procurement is cancelled on review.

Clause 7.4 of the specification names a brand: “paver finisher of Vögele make or equivalent”.
Regulation 2064 r.11(3) prohibits naming a brand unless no generic description is possible. Suggested: “paver finisher, screed width 9 m or more, with electronic levelling”.

Turnover is set at 2.5 times the estimate; the median for comparable works is 1.5 times.
At 2.5× only 9 of 1,240 Class A firms qualify; at 1.5×, 41 do. Tenders in the top decile of turnover requirements attract 2.1 bidders on average, against 5.4 for the rest.

Possible splitting: sections 1 and 2 of this road were tendered separately on 2082-05-28 and 2082-06-04, each just under the ICB threshold.
Three contiguous sections total रु ७१ करोड. Section 46 of the Act forbids splitting to avoid a method or an approval.

Blocking items must be corrected, or justified in writing by the chief of the entity, before this tender can be published. Every justification is published with the tender.
