INTRODUCTION TO BoQ - PREAMBLE

The Tenderers shall price separately each Item in the Bills of Quantities (BoQ) and shall follow the
instructions regarding transfer of alternative totals of the summary given in the BoQ.
The BoQ must be read with all the other Contract Documents and the Contractor shall be deemed to have
thoroughly acquainted himself with the detailed descriptions of the works to be done and the way in which
they are to be carried out. The whole of the works is to be executed to their true intent and meaning and to
the entire satisfaction of the Engineer. The items which are included in drawings, documents etc. but not
found in BoQs shall be deemed as have been included in the other unit prices of the BoQs.
The optional components mentioned in the BoQ for the LFG Control System at Kusadasi Keklicek shall be
priced according to the related positions and as mentioned in the specifications. Their implementation shall
depend on the results of the pumping trial.
The optional components for the Medical Waste Unit and the Packaging Waste Unit to be installed at the
New Landfill at Kusadasi shall be priced on a lumpsum basis according to the specifications. The Price
proposal for these two units will be taken into consideration during the evaluation of the tenders while
ranking the financial offers and summarising the total budget. The Contracting Authority is free to decide
whether the supply and erection of these two units will be performed by the contractor or not. The
Contracting Authority and the Beneficiary may choose to include the mentioned services in the scope of the
contract in accordance with the budget constraints.
The work items that are necessary to complete the works or stated in the Technical Specifications or
Drawings but forgotten to be included in the Bill of Quantities should be included in the tender prices of the
tenderer. Such costs should be accepted as covered in the cost of the tenderer.
Quantity of items
The quantities set forth against the Items in each Bill are an estimate of the quantity of each kind of the work
likely to be carried out under the Contract and are given for the convenience of forming a common basis for
tenders. There is no guarantee to the Contractor that he will be required to carry out the quantities of work
indicated under any one particular item in the BoQ or that the quantities will not differ in magnitude from
those stated in the Bills.
The brief description of items given in the Bills of Quantities is purely for the purpose of identification and it
shall in no way modify or supersede the detailed description given in the Conditions of Contract or
Specifications. When pricing items, reference should be made to the Conditions of Contract, the
Specifications and relevant Drawings for directions and descriptions of work and materials involved.
The quantities given in the BoQ are provisional, as estimated and are given to provide a common basis for
tendering.
Except where specifically and expressly otherwise stated in the Technical Specifications or in the BoQ, the
Permanent Works only shall be measured. The works shall be measured nett to the dimensions shown on the
Drawings or as ordered in writing by the Engineer, except where otherwise specifically described or
prescribed in the Contract.
In adjusting extras or variations on the Contract, the work shall be measured on the same basis as that for
which the quantities have been prepared and all works not specifically mentioned in the Bill will be taken as
included in the prices of various items.
Where in the opinion of the Engineer, extra works cannot be properly measured or valued, the Contractor, if
so directed by the Engineer, shall carry out the work at day work rates, which shall be the rates shown in the
Schedule of Day work. All completed Day work Sheets must be signed by the Engineer on or before the end
of the week in which the work is executed.
No allowance will be made for loss of materials or volume thereof during transport or compaction.
It is deemed that all prices given by the Contractor includes all necessary items for performance and
procurement of works, goods and services he is tendering for. These items include but not limited to

Annex_3

construction, supply, transportation, loading, unloading, installation, testing, workmanship etc. and all
overheads and profits.
Units of measurement
The calculation units used are the same as specified and allowed in the System International (SI) and used in
the Technical Documentation herein. No other, but the units used in the Technical Documentation shall be
used in measurements, pricing, detail drawings etc. (Any units not used in the Technical Documentation
shall also be expressed in terms of the SI)

Day work
Unit prices stated in the schedules for day work are foreseen to reflect the market prices and they are
expected to be consistent with the unit prices stated in the BoQ. The proposed cost of day-works will be
submitted by the Tenderer on Table Daywork Schedule. This amount will be considered in the tender
price, whereas only the unit prices will be included in the contract file of the successful tenderer.
Provisional sums/Contingencies
A general provision for physical contingencies (i.e the amount allocated in case of quantity of any item
overruns) made by including a provisional sum in the overall Bill of Quantities. As per article 3.1 of the
Particular Conditions they will be used under the authority of the Engineer and after the approval of the
Contracting Authority.
TERMS IN CONNECTION WITH PAYMENTS

signs and compliance with all other clauses of the Specifications and Conditions of Contract which he may
feel are not adequately covered elsewhere in the Bills of Quantities.
The tenderers shall spread their general expenses, risks, profit and any other costs equally to unit prices. No
front loading is allowed under this contract.

TAXES
As described in the Volume 6- Grant of Facilities.
COMPLETING THE BILLS OF QUANTITIES
In the BoQ, the rates and prices shall be entered in the appropriate columns. All rates and prices shall be
quoted in Euro.
Errors will be corrected by the Employer for any arithmetical errors in computation or summation as follows:
a)
where there is a discrepancy between amounts in figures and in words, the amount in words will
govern, and
b)
where there is a discrepancy between the unit rate and the total amount derived from the
multiplication of the unit price and the quantity, the unit rate as quoted will govern, unless in the
opinion of the Employer, there is an obviously gross misplacement of the decimal point in the unit
price, in which event the total amount as quoted will govern and the unit rate will be corrected.
