SECTION 2. INFORMATION TO CONSULTANTS
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 The Client named in the “Data Sheet” will select a firm among those listed in the Letter
of Invitation, in accordance with the method of selection indicated in the Data Sheet.
1.2 The Consultants are invited to submit a Technical Proposal and a Financial Proposal,
as specified in the Data Sheet (the Proposal) for consulting services required for the
Assignment named in the Data Sheet. The Proposal will be the basis for contract
negotiations and ultimately for a signed contract with the selected Consultant.
1.3 The Assignment shall be implemented in accordance with the phasing indicated in the
Data Sheet. When the Assignment includes several phases, the performance of the
Consultant under each phase must be to the client’s satisfaction before work begins on
the next phase.
1.4 The Consultants must familiarize themselves with local conditions and take them into
account in preparing their Proposals. To obtain first-hand information on the
Assignment and on the local conditions, Consultants are encouraged to pay a visit to
the Client before submitting a Proposal, and to attend a pre- proposal conference if one
is specified in the Data Sheet. Attending the pre-proposal conference is optional.
The Consultant’s representative should contact the officials named in the Data Sheet to
arrange for their visit or to obtain additional information on the pre-proposal
conference. Consultants should ensure that these officials are advised of the visit in
adequate time to allow them to make appropriate arrangements.
1.5 The Client will provide the inputs specified in the Data Sheet, assist the firm in
obtaining licenses and permits needed to carry out the services, and make available
relevant project data and reports.

1.7 Government of Karnataka (GOK) expects Consultants to provide professional,

objective, and impartial advice and at all times hold the Client’s interests paramount,
without any consideration for future work, and strictly avoid conflicts with other
assignments or their own corporate interests. Consultants shall not be hired for any
assignment that would be in conflict with their prior or current obligations to other
clients, or that may place them in a position of not being able to carry out the assignment
in the best interest of the Client.
1.7.1 Without limitation on the generality of this rule, Consultants shall not be
hired under the circumstances set forth below:
(a) A firm which has been engaged by the Client to provide goods or works
for a project, and any of their affiliates, shall be disqualified from
providing consulting services for the same project. Conversely, firms
hired to provide consulting services for the preparation or implementation
of a project, and any of their affiliates, shall be disqualified from
subsequently providing goods or works or services related to the initial
assignment (other than a continuation of the firm’s earlier consulting
services) for the same project.
(b) Consultants or any of their affiliates shall not be hired for any assignment
which, by its nature, may be in conflict with another assignment of the
Consultants.
1.7.2 As pointed out in para. 1.7.1 (a) above, Consultants may be hired for
downstream work, when continuity is essential, in which case this possibility
shall be indicated in the Data Sheet and the factors used for the selection of the

exclusive decision of the Client whether or not to have the downstream
assignment carried out, and if it is carried out, which Consultant will be hired for
the purpose.
1.8 It is GOK’s policy to require that Consultants observe the highest standard of ethics
during the execution of such contracts. In pursuance of this policy, the GOK:

(i) “corrupt practice” means the offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting of

anything of value to influence the action of a public official in the
selection process or in contract execution; and
(ii) “fraudulent practice” means a misrepresentation of facts in order to

influence a selection process or the execution of a contract to the detriment
of GOK, and includes collusive practices among Consultants (prior to or
after submission of proposals) designed to establish prices at artificial,
noncompetitive levels and to deprive GOK of the benefits of free and open
competition.
(b) will reject a proposal for award if it determines that the firm recommended for
award has engaged in corrupt or fraudulent activities in competing for the contract
in question;
(d) will declare a firm ineligible, either indefinitely or for a stated period of time,
to be awarded GOK-financed contract if it at any time determines that the firm
has engaged in corrupt or fraudulent practices in competing for, or in executing, a
GOK-financed contract; and
(e) will have the right to require that, GOK to inspect Consultant’s accounts and
records relating to the performance of the contract and to have them audited by
auditors appointed by GOK.

responsiveness to the Terms of Reference, applying the evaluation criteria, sub-criteria
(typically not more than three per criteria) and point system specified in the Data Sheet.

at this stage if it does not respond to important aspects of the Terms of Reference or if it
fails to achieve the minimum technical score indicated in the Data Sheet.
Opening and Evaluation of Financial Proposals;
5.4 After the technical evaluation is completed, the Client will reject those proposals which did
not meet the minimum qualifying mark or were considered non-responsive to the RFP and
Terms of Reference. The Client will notify the Consultants that have secured the minimum
qualifying mark, indicating the date and time for opening the Financial Proposals. The
notification may be sent by registered letter, cable, telex, facsimile, or electronic mail.
5.5 The Financial Proposals shall be opened in e-portal as indicated in Data Sheet in the
presence of the Consultants’ representatives who choose to attend. The name of the
Consultant, the quality scores, and the proposed prices shall be read aloud and recorded
when the Financial Proposals are opened. The Client shall prepare minutes of the public
opening.
5.6 The evaluation committee will determine whether the Financial Proposals are complete,
(i.e., whether they have costed all items of the corresponding Technical Proposals, if not,
the Client will cost them and add their cost to the initial price), correct any computational
errors.
5.7 The lowest Financial Proposal (Fm) will be given a financial score (Sf) of 100 points. The
financial scores (Sf) of the other Financial Proposals will be computed as indicated in the
Data Sheet. Proposals will be ranked according to their combined technical (S t) and
financial (Sf) scores using the weights (T = the weight given to the Technical Proposal; P =
the weight given to the Financial Proposal; T + P = 1) indicated in the Data Sheet: S = St x
T% + Sf x P%. The Consultant achieving the highest combined technical/ financial score
will be invited for negotiations.
6. NEGOTIATIONS
6.1 Negotiations will be held at the address indicated in the Data Sheet. The aim is to reach
agreement on all points and sign a contract.
6.2 Negotiations will include a discussion of the Technical Proposal, the proposed methodology
(work plan), staffing and any suggestions made by the firm to improve the Terms of
Reference. The Client and Consultant will then work out final Terms of Reference, staffing,
and bar charts indicating activities, staff, periods in the field and in the home office, staff-
months, logistics, and reporting. The agreed work plan and final Terms of Reference will
then be incorporated in the “Description of Services” and form part of the contract. Special
attention will be paid to getting the most the firm can offer within the available budget and
to clearly defining the inputs required from the Client to ensure satisfactory implementation
of the Assignment.
6.3 Unless there are exceptional reasons, the financial negotiations will involve neither the
remuneration rates for staff (no breakdown of fees) nor other proposed unit rates.
6.4 Having selected the Consultant on the basis of, among other things, an evaluation of
proposed key professional staff, the Client expects to negotiate a contract on the basis of the
professionals named in the Proposal. Before contract negotiations, the Client will require
assurances that the professionals will be actually available. The Client will not consider
substitutions during contract negotiations unless both parties agree that undue delay in the
selection process makes such substitution unavoidable or that such changes are critical to
meet the objectives of the assignment. If this is not the case and if it is established that key
staff was offered in the proposal without confirming their availability, the Consultant may
be disqualified.
6.5 The negotiations will conclude with a review of the draft form of the contract. To complete
negotiations the Client and the Consultant will initial the agreed contract. If negotiations
fail, the Client will invite the next lowest proposal among those that passed the minimum
technical score. The process will be repeated till an agreed contract is concluded.
7. AWARD OF CONTRACT
7.1 The contract will be awarded following negotiations. After negotiations are completed, the
Client will promptly notify other Consultants on the shortlist that they were unsuccessful
and return the Financial Proposals of those Consultants who did not pass the technical
evaluation (para 5.3)

specified in the Data Sheet.

operating costs, the Consultant shall give particular attention to the development of
valid current estimates of such costs. In particular, where a computer-based highway
investment model such as IRC:SP-30 based model is used, the Consultant shall ensure
that all individual factor unit costs (such as vehicle prices, interest rates, tyres, fuel,
crew wages, insurance, etc.) input into the model are derived from direct investigation
of present costs. (These inputs will have to be stated in the report).
3. The Consultant shall ensure that the individual parameters such as evenness, which are
input into the model to determine the different component cost of vehicle operations,
shall be those that apply to the individual design standard being evaluated. It is expected
therefore, that where design standards evaluated in the study have significantly different
parameters they will be reflected in the vehicle operating costs.
4. Residual value of the road structures at the end of the evaluation period may be
estimated and deducted from the construction costs, duly reduced to NPV.
5. The Consultant shall carefully describe in the reports all the data, assumptions, and
parameters used in developing estimates for current vehicle operating costs. For
construction / rehabilitation costs, the Consultant shall give estimates according to the
details given for costs under (i) above.

related to current and forecast traffic volumes. The Consultant shall detail in the reports
all the data, assumptions and parameters used to develop estimates of current and future
road maintenance costs, following the same method as for rehabilitation costs as given
under (i) above.
7. In determining the economic costs for all factors in the project, the Consultant shall
ensure that costs are net of all taxes and duties, or any other transfer payments to
Government and shadow priced where appropriate to reflect the true scarcity value of
the resources being used.
8. Economic benefits shall be expressed primarily in terms of.
 savings in vehicle operating costs (reduction in fuel consumption etc.);

 savings in road maintenance expenditure;
 value of time savings (savings resulting from reduction in journey times);
 reduction in accident costs, if any.
51 of 85
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. The Consultant shall undertake evaluation of the economic viability of the project for
the twenty (20) years following the completion of the rehabilitation of the Project Road.
For this, the economic costs of construction to the design standards proposed shall be
compared with the relevant level of economic user benefits arising from implementation
of the project at that design level. The level of design that results in the greatest net
present value shall be determined as the optimum design level. The net present value
shall be calculated at a discount rate of 15%.
10. The economic viability shall be expressed in terms of

 the economic internal rate of return;
 the net present value at a discount rate of 15%;
 the benefit-cost ratio
11. The above economic indicators shall be evaluated separately and the evaluation of each
of the above will indicate the viability of the Project Road.
12. The Consultant shall also express the results of the analysis in terms of First Year Rate
of Return (FIRR), to indicate the optimum year of rehabilitation and opening of the
road. The Consultant shall compare the outcome of these analyses with those of
previous studies (if any), and any major deficiencies in the results shall be identified and
explained.
13. The Consultant shall subject these key variables to a sensitivity analysis. The
Consultant shall also undertake sensitivity analysis on the results of the finally selected
option. Benefits and construction costs shall be varied by +/- 15 %, or at another level
deemed appropriate for analysis and agreed with KRDCL, and the economic evaluation
shall be carried out for both low and high forecasts of traffic.
