o If there is a discrepancy between the figures and in-words,
in-words shall be the legal basis for error correction;
o Where there is total price for a specific quantity but
correspondent unit price is left blank, unit price shall be
obtained by dividing such total price by the quantity;
o Where there is unit price but correspondent total price for a
specific quantity is left blank, total price for the specified
quantity shall be obtained by multiplying the unit price and
quantity;

o Where there are unit price and total price, but the quantity
(volume) is left blank, the quantity (volume) shall be
obtained by dividing such total price by the unit price. In the
case that after such a correction, the quantity (volume) is still
different with the quantity mentioned in the Bidding

follow the principle that if the price for the part is inseparable from the bid price
of the currently-being-corrected bidder, the highest unit price (for missing part)
or the lowest unit price for exceeding part) from the other bids in the shortlist
shall be applied. If such exceeding or missing value cannot be sorted out from
remaining bids in the shortlist, or only the currently being-corrected bidder is
named in the shortlist, the unit price of the bidders in the long list or the price in
the cost estimate, total cost estimate or approved price of the package,

Proposal and financial Proposal, the technical proposal shall be legal basis for
adjustment of deviations.
