CONTRACTOR-supplied material and its sources shall be selected solely on
the basis of financial and technical criteria, provided however that products
of Saudi manufacturers shall be preferred. SAUDI ARAMCO places a
significant portion of its materials requirements on Saudi vendors and
encourages its contractors to do the same.
4.1.1
SAUDI ARAMCO may provide CONTRACTOR with a worldwide list
of commercially and technically acceptable suppliers for certain
materials. The list provided to CONTRACTOR is not to be
considered exclusive. CONTRACTOR is encouraged to include
other technically and financially qualified suppliers. SAUDI
ARAMCO-supplied suppliers list is confidential and shall not be
distributed outside CONTRACTOR's procurement office. CONTRACTOR shall develop its own suppliers list for categories of
material for which SAUDI ARAMCO has not provided lists.
4.1.2
Saudi manufacturers are industrial establishments within Saudi
Arabia who mine, manufacture or assemble products using reasonable amounts of local raw materials or local manpower in their
production, as certified by the Ministry of Electricity and Industry.
CONTRACTOR shall develop competitive quotations from at least
three (3) SAUDI ARAMCO qualified Saudi manufacturers listed in
SAUDI ARAMCO's Supplier Support Division (SSD) report if the
material value exceeds $10,000. If less than three (3) Saudi
manufacturers are listed then all shall receive quotation requests. If
CONTRACTOR's books and records do not establish
CONTRACTOR's compliance with the procedure described in this
paragraph, CONTRACTOR shall pay SAUDI ARAMCO ten percent
(10%) of the purchase price paid for any material procured in
violation of that procedure as liquidated damages.
4.1.3
Saudi vendors are merchants or firms in Saudi Arabia which, in the
normal course of business, represent, as agent or otherwise,
manufacturers of products located outside Saudi Arabia.
4.2
CONTRACTOR shall submit to SAUDI ARAMCO a report, in a format acceptable to SAUDI ARAMCO, indicating the percentages of material for the
FACILITIES by value purchased from Saudi vendors and Saudi
manufacturers. The report shall be submitted at fifty percent (50%) and one
hundred percent (100%) completion of procurement of material for the
FACILITIES.
4.3
Anything in this Contract to the contrary notwithstanding, SAUDI ARAMCO
shall be granted access to CONTRACTOR's books and records at any and
all reasonable times during the term of this Contract,

and for a period of two (2) years thereafter for the purpose of ascertaining
CONTRACTOR's consideration of Saudi suppliers as required pursuant to
Paragraph 4.1.

4.4
Should SAUDI ARAMCO determine for technical or financial reasons that
certain material must be purchased from a specific vendor or be the product
of a particular manufacturer, SAUDI ARAMCO may direct CONTRACTOR
in writing to purchase from such vendor or manufacturer. However, any
SAUDI ARAMCO-supplied material specification, whether a part of this
Contract or otherwise, naming a specific brand or model of material, does
so only for the purpose of establishing a standard of quality, unless
otherwise indicated. CONTRACTOR is not limited by the named brands or
models and may supply other brands or models of equivalent quality.
4.5
CONTRACTOR shall not include in the Contract Price Saudi Arab Customs
duties for any CONTRACTOR-supplied tools and equipment to be used in
connection with the WORK and then re-exported. If CONTRACTOR reexports such tools and equipment and is unable to obtain a refund of Saudi
Arab Customs duties deposited with Saudi Arab Customs, SAUDI
ARAMCO shall promptly reimburse CONTRACTOR for Saudi Arab
Customs duties paid by CONTRACTOR on such tools and equipment.
CONTRACTOR shall submit its invoice to SAUDI ARAMCO for such
reimbursement accompanied with proof that CONTRACTOR has deposited
the duties, re-exported the tools and equipment, and failed after reasonable
effort to obtain a refund of deposited duties.
STANDARDIZATION
CONTRACTOR shall standardize material types, sizes and characteristics, so that,
as far as practicable, products of Saudi manufacturers can be used as standard or
acceptable alternative material. CONTRACTOR shall purchase material, as far as
practicable, to be a duplicate of, or have interchangeable parts with, other similar
material being used in the construction of the FACILITIES as well as material listed
in the SAUDI ARAMCO Materials Stock (SAMS) catalog, unless otherwise
specified.
6.0
ADDITIONAL MATERIALS
Should CONTRACTOR require additional material, and in SAUDI ARAMCO’s sole
discretion, SAUDI ARAMCO may make available certain materials for the
FACILITIES. Such materials shall be transferred by agreed negative Change Order
and shall be considered SAUDI ARAMCO-supplied. SAUDI ARAMCO shall accept
the agreed transfer price as full and complete compensation for such transfers.
