Subject: Time extension with deviation in contractual value due to

change in scheduled quantity for Hot Repair of battery 1A

Ref: PO 4515005294

1. Purchase Order was placed on M/S Hindustan Steelworks

Construction for HOT REPAIRING, BATTERY NO: 1A vide PO No:
4515005294 dated 25.01.2014. Contractual value and completion time
for the scheduled job was Rs 38,842,339.17 and 150 days respectively.
Site was handed over to the party on 21/02/2014.

2. During the Hot repair activities of 1A block some additional quantities of

jobs had surfaced over and above the scheduled quantity which was
required to be done for successful repair of the battery. These
additional quantities of jobs were not envisaged during initiation of
proposal as because the estimate was based on condition of battery at
that point of time when proposal was initiated and battery was in
running condition. Similarly some jobs which were planned to be done
during the hot repair period, had to be postponed to suit the technical
parameters of battery and the technical requirement of the planned
process or activity.

1. Contractor had agreed to execute the additional quantities of job at

existing rate of contract only after protracted deliberation because of
increased rate of labor and consumables. Letter is attached in
annexure.

2. Lean gas line of under firing system could not be handed over to M/S
Hindustan Steelworks Construction for want of gas shut down and
accordingly the repair job related to lean gas line of Battery 1A could
not be taken up. Going by the operational dynamics and ongoing
repair job of battery 1B, it is expected that some more time will be
required for getting shut down of lean gas line for carrying out the repair
work.

3. Contractor has completed all the jobs, except the jobs for which site
could not be handed over within scheduled time period .

4. Charging of battery block was not done immediately after completion of

the job to suit shop logistics.
 5. A deviation statement containing list of jobs with revised quantity and value
is attached in Annexure-I. Revised value is Rs 42842242.21 and 10.3 %
more than the actual contractual value by Rs 38,842,339.17

6. For completion of gas line job additional time is required to be given to

the contractor.

7. In view of above, it is proposed to do following amendments in the

contract:
I) Extension of validity of contract up to 30/11/2014 for completion of
lean gas line jobs.

II) Amend the contractual value to Rs 42842242.21

8. GM (COR ) may kindly approve the para 9(I) of the note 1 ante and
recommend the proposal 9(II) for kind approval of CEO DSP.
