The omission of a Tenderer’s signature on the record shall not invalidate the contents and affect the record. 24.9 A copy of the minutes of the Tender opening shall be furnished to individual Tenderers upon request. 25.1 Information relating to the examination, clarification, evaluation, and comparison of Tenders and recommendations for the award of a Contract shall not be disclosed to Tenderers or any other persons not officially concerned with such process until the award to the successful Tenderer has been announced. 25.2 Any effort by a Tenderer to influence the Procuring Entity’s processing of Tenders or award decisions may result in the rejection of his Tender. 25.3 Notwithstanding sub-Clause 26.2, from the time of Tender opening to the time of Contract award, if any Tenderer wishes to contact the Procuring Entity on any matter related to the Tendering process, it should do so in writing. 26.1 To assist in the examination, evaluation, comparison of Tenders and post-qualification of the Tenderer, the Procuring Entity may, at its discretion, ask a Tenderer for clarification of its Tender including breakdown of prices. Any clarification submitted by a Tenderer that is not in response to a request by the Procuring Entity shall not be considered. 26.2 The request for clarification and the response shall be in writing. No change in the prices or substance of the Tender shall be sought, offered, or permitted except to confirm the correction of arithmetic errors discovered by the Procuring Entity in the evaluation of Tenders in accordance with ITT Clause 29. 26.3 From the time of Tender opening to the time of Contract award if any Tenderer wishes to contact the Procuring Entity on any matter related to the Tender it should do so in writing. 27.1 Prior to the detailed evaluation of Tenders, the Procuring Entity will determine whether: a) The Tender has been submitted in the required format; b) Any Tender Security submitted is in the required form, amount and validity period; c) The Tender has been signed by the person lawfully authorized to do so; d) The required number of copies of the Tender have been submitted; e) The Tender is valid for the period required; f) All required documents and information have been submitted; and Page 20 of 89 g) Any required samples have been submitted. 27.2 The Procuring Entity will confirm that the documents and information specified under ITT Clause 12 and ITT Clause 13 have been provided in the Tender. If any of these documents or information is missing, or is not provided in accordance with the Instructions to Tenderers, the Tender shall be rejected. 27.3 The Procuring Entity may waive any minor informality, nonconformity, or irregularity in a Tender which does not constitute a material deviation, provided such waiver does not prejudice or affect the relative ranking of any Tenderer 27.4 A substantially responsive Tender is one which conforms to all the terms, conditions, and specifications of the Tendering documents, without material deviation or reservation. A material deviation or reservation is one that: a) Affects in any substantial way the scope, quality, or execution of the Works; b) Limits in any substantial way, inconsistent with the Tendering documents, the Procuring Entity's rights or the Tenderer’s obligations under the Contract; or c) If rectified, would affect unfairly the competitive position of other Tenderers presenting substantially responsive Tenders. 27.5 Correction of Errors 28.1 If a Tender is not substantially responsive, it will be rejected by the Procuring Entity, and may not subsequently be made responsive by correction or withdrawal of the non-conforming deviation or reservation. Tenders determined to be substantially responsive will be checked by the Procuring Entity for any arithmetic errors. Errors will be corrected by the Procuring Entity as follows: a) If there is a discrepancy between unit prices and the total price that is obtained by multiplying the unit price and quantity, the unit price shall prevail, and the total price shall be corrected, unless in the opinion of the Procuring Entity there is an obvious misplacement of the decimal point in the unit price, in which the total price as quoted shall govern and the unit price shall be corrected; b) If there is an error in a total corresponding to the addition or subtraction of subtotals, the subtotals shall prevail and the total shall be corrected; and 28.2 Conversion to Single Currency 29.1 c) Where there is a discrepancy between the amounts in figures and in words, the amount in words will govern. The amount stated in the Tender will, be adjusted by the Procuring Entity in accordance with the above procedure for the correction of errors and, with, the concurrence of the Tenderer, shall be considered as binding upon the Tenderer. If the Tenderer does not accept the corrected amount, its Tender will then be rejected, and the Tender Security may be forfeited and the Tender Securing Declaration may be executed in accordance with sub-Clause 19.9. To facilitate the evaluation and comparison, the Procuring Entity will convert all Tender prices expressed in the amounts in various currencies in which the Tender prices are payable to Kenya Shillings at the selling exchange rate established for similar transactions by the Central Bank of Kenya ruling on the date specified in the Tender Page 21 of 89 Data Sheet. Comparison of Tenders 30.1 30.2 30.3 National Preference 31.1 Determination of the winning evaluated Tender Post-qualification of Tenderer 32.1 33.1 33.2 33.3 33.4 The Procuring Entity shall evaluate and compare only the Tenders determined to be substantially responsive in accordance with ITT Clause 28. In evaluating the Tenders, the Procuring Entity will determine for each Tender the evaluated Tender price by adjusting the Tender price as follows: Making any correction for errors pursuant to ITT Clause 29; Excluding provisional sums and the provision, if any for contingencies in the Bill of Quantities, but including Day work , where priced competitively ; and Making appropriate adjustments to reflect discounts or other price modifications offered in accordance with sub-Clause 24.5. The Procuring Entity may waive any minor informality or nonconformity, which does not constitute a material deviation, provided such waiver does not prejudice or affect the relative standing of any Tenderer. Variations, deviations, and alternative offers and other factors, which are in excess of the requirements of the Tendering documents or otherwise result in unsolicited benefits for the Procuring Entity will not be taken into account in Tender evaluation. There will be no national preference except to the effect and substance as contained in the Tender Data Sheet. The Tender with the highest combined technical and financial score evaluated from among those which are eligible, compliant and substantially responsive shall be the winning evaluated Tender. If specified in the Tender Data Sheet, post-qualification shall be undertaken. The Procuring Entity will determine to its satisfaction whether the Tenderer that is selected as having submitted the winning evaluated responsive Tender is qualified to perform the contract satisfactorily, in accordance with the criteria listed in sub-Clause 13.3. The determination will take into account the Tenderer’s financial, technical, and production capabilities. It will be based upon an examination of the documentary evidence of the Tenderer’s qualifications submitted by the Tenderer, pursuant to sub-Clause 13.3, as well as such other information as the Procuring Entity deems necessary and appropriate. Factors not included in these Tendering documents shall not be used in the evaluation of the Tenderer’s qualifications. An affirmative determination will be a prerequisite for award of the contract to the Tenderer. A negative determination will result in rejection of the Tenderer’s Tender, in which event the Procuring Entity will proceed to the next highest evaluated tender to make a similar determination of that Tenderer’s capabilities to perform satisfactorily. Award of Contract Criteria of Award 34.1 Subject to ITT Clause 35 and 36, the Procuring Entity will award the Contract to the Tenderer whose Tender has been determined to be substantially responsive to the Tendering documents and who has offered the winning evaluated tender Price, provided that such Tenderer has been determined to be: a) Eligible in accordance with the provisions of ITT Clause 3; b) Is determined to be qualified to perform the Contract satisfactorily; c) Successful negotiations have been concluded.

Procuring Entities Right to Vary Quantities at the Time of Award 37.1 Notification of Award 38.1 The Procuring Entity reserves the right at the time of contract award to increase or decrease the quantity of goods or related services originally specified in these Tendering documents (schedule of requirements) provided this does not exceed by the percentage indicated in the Tender Data Sheet, without any change in unit price or other terms and conditions of the Tender and Tendering documents. The Tenderer whose Tender has been accepted will be notified of the award by the Procuring Entity prior to expiration of the Tender validity period by e-mail or facsimile confirmed by registered letter. This letter (hereinafter and in the Conditions of Contract called the "Letter of Acceptance") will state the sum that the Procuring Entity will pay the Contractor in consideration of the provision and maintenance of the Work(s) as prescribed by the Contract (hereinafter and in the Contract called the “Contract Price”). The notification of award will constitute the formation of the Contract, subject to the Tenderer furnishing the Performance Security in accordance with ITT Clause 41 and signing the Contract in accordance with sub-Clause 40.2 Procuring Entity’s Right to Accept any Tender and to Reject any or all Tenders 38.2 38.3 At the same time as the person submitting the successful Tender is notified, the Procuring Entity will notify each unsuccessful Tenderer, the name of the successful Tenderer and the Contract amount and will discharge the Tender Security and Tender Securing Declaration of the Tenderer pursuant to ITT sub Clause 19.7 If, after notification of award, a Tenderer wishes to ascertain the grounds on which it’s Tender or application for pre-qualification was unsuccessful, it should address its request to the secretary of the Tender Committee that authorized the award of contract. The secretary of the Tender Committee shall, within fourteen days after a request, provide written reasons as to why the Tender, proposal or application Page 23 of 89 to be pre-qualified was unsuccessful. However, failure to take this opportunity to clarify the grounds for rejection does not affect the Tenderer’s right to seek immediate review by the Public Procurement Administrative Review Board under Clause 45. Signing of Contract 39.1 39.2 Performance Security 40.1 40.2 Promptly, and in no case later than 14 days, after notification, Procuring Entity shall send the successful Tenderer the Agreement and Contract Data Sheet, incorporating all agreements between the parties obtained as a result of Contract negotiations.

The Procuring Entity will provide an Advance Payment as stipulated in the Conditions of Contract, subject to a maximum amount, as stated in the Tender Data Sheet. 41.2 The Advance Payment request shall be accompanied by an Advance Payment Security (Guarantee) in the form provided in Section X.

The Contractor shall keep a complete record of the flow of cement through the silos so that any cement drawn off can be related to a particular consignment. Stocks of cement shall be used in the order of delivery and the Contractor shall inform the Engineer when issues from a fresh consignment are about to begin. No loose cement that has been spilt from damaged bags or has escaped from bulk containers or silos shall be used in the permanent works. Aggregates General Concrete aggregates shall comply with the requirements of EN 12620 except where modified by this Specification and be obtained from sources approved by the Engineer. Such approval shall not relieve the Contractor of his responsibilities to ensure that the aggregates comply with the requirement of this Specification. Approval Before commencing trial mixes the Contractor shall submit for approval by the Engineer, a 50 kg sample of each type of aggregate that he proposes to use together with all the test results stating the source of supply. When approved the samples shall be retained on site by the Engineer for reference and comparison with later deliveries. If during the course of the Works the Contractor wishes to change the source or nature of any aggregate which has been approved, he shall first submit a sample with all the test results to the Engineer for his approval and retention. Sampling and Testing The Contractor shall carry out regular sampling and testing of the aggregate stockpiles as directed by the Engineer. As well as meeting the requirements of EN 12620, aggregates shall be sampled and tested in accordance with the further requirements of this Specification Alkali Reactivity Aggregates shall be tested chemically in accordance with ASTM test C289. If the test shows them to be deleteriously or potentially deleteriously reactive with the alkalis in the cement then an alternative source of aggregates shall be used. Chloride Content of Aggregates The Chloride content of the aggregates shall be determined in accordance EN 1744-1:1998. Where the chloride content of the aggregates is such that the total chloride content of the concrete mix would exceed the chloride content specified for the concrete use, the aggregates shall be washed with fresh water, by means approved by the Engineer, to reduce the total chloride content of the mix to 0.40% by weight of cement or less. Properties of Coarse Aggregate The coarse aggregates shall be crushed natural stone or gravel and have the following characteristics when tested according to: Page 51 of 89 (a) (b) EN 933: grading as per EN 12620 Table 2 clay, silt, dust and other deleterious matter (by weight) max 1.5% flakiness index: EN 933-3 FI35 elongation index: max30.0% particle density EN 1097-6-2000 min 2600 kg/m3 water absorption: EN 1097-6 max 3.0% impact value: BS 812:Part 112:1990 max 30.0% crushing value: BS 812:Part 110:1990 max 30.0% ASTN C88 loss after 5 cycles of immersion and drying shall not exceed 12% when tested for soundness using sodium sulphate or 18% using magnesium sulphate Properties of Fine Aggregates The fine aggregates shall have the following characteristics when tested according to: (a) EN 933-1 and EN 1097-6 grading within the limits of grading CP or MP as Table B1 of EN 12620:2002 (b) - clay, silt, dust and other deleterious matter: (by weight): max 3.0% - apparent relative density: EN 1097-6 min 2.5 ASTM C125 fineness modulus shall not be less than 2.3 nor more than 3.1 Storage Aggregates shall be stored on clean, well-paved and properly drained areas which are not liable to flooding. The various sizes and types of aggregates shall be separated by solid dividing walls Moisture Content Wet fine aggregate shall not be used until in the opinion of the Engineer, it has drained sufficiently to ensure proper control of the water/cement ratio. Coarse aggregates shall be surface dry and saturated when used in preparing concrete and stock piles shall be watered as necessary to achieve this. Water for Concrete Mixing The Contractor shall make his own arrangements to the approval of the Engineer for the supply and, if necessary, the metering of fresh water for mixing concrete, curing and for all other purposes. The Water shall be clean, free from deleterious matter in solution or suspension and shall comply with the requirements of EN 1008:1997 Admixtures Use of admixtures and cement containing additives will only be permitted with the Engineer's written approval. Where admixtures are permitted they will conform to EN 934-2. Concrete Quality Classes of Concrete The various classes of concrete shall be in accordance with Table 9.1: Table 9.1: Schedule of Concrete Mixes Mix Reference Compressive strength class A1 C25/30 A2 C16/20 Page 52 of 89 A3 C12/15 A4 C32/40 Exposure class Maximum nominal upper aggregate size Maximum Chloride content Maximum water cement ratio (Table F.1) Minimum Cement Content(kg) XS1 Dmax 20 X0 Dmax 40 X0 Dmax 40 XS1 Dmax 10 Cl0,4 0.5 Cl0,4 0.55 Cl0,4 0.6 Cl0,4 0.5 325 240 210 325 Chloride Content of Concrete The total chloride content of the concrete mix arising from the aggregate and from any other source shall be class Cl 0, 40 as Table 10 of EN 206-1:2000. The chloride content shall be measured in accordance with EN 1744-1:1998. Trial Mixes General The Contractor shall prepare trial mixes and carry out initial testing in accordance with Clause 9.5 and Annex A of EN 206-1:2000 using three batches for each concrete mix. Approval of Mixes The Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for approval full details of the trial Mixes he proposes to adopt for the works including:i. the grading of the coarse and fine aggregates ii. the ratio by weight of all constituents of the mix; iii. the compaction factor and slump test result; iv. the test cubes results No concrete shall be used in the works until the test cubes have attained the required strength and the mix has been approved in writing by the Engineer. Calculations to be Provided The Contractor shall supply copies in triplicate to the Engineer of all calculations relevant to the determination of the proportions of each class of concrete, and shall prove the sufficiency of such calculations to the satisfaction of the Engineer. Batching and Mixing Measuring Materials All cement and aggregates shall be measured by weight. The amount of water added shall also be measured, due allowance being made for the water content of the fine aggregate. The moisture content of fine aggregate shall be measured using an approved device. Accuracy of Measuring Equipment Weigh-batching machines shall be kept clean and in good condition and adjustment. The Engineer shall require, at reasonable times, the Contractor to check the accuracy of each weigh batching machine and water measuring device in the presence of the Engineer. The accuracy to be attained in each case shall be within ±3% of the quantity of cement, water or total aggregates being measured. Mixing Concrete shall be thoroughly mixed to a uniform consistency . Each batch of concrete shall be mixed for a minimum of two minutes after all the materials have been added. The mixer shall be washed out with cement grout before mixing the first batch after any stoppage or alternatively the first mix shall be discarded. After every stoppage the mixer shall be thoroughly cleaned and washed out. Concrete shall be discarded from the mixer or agitator onto a level, clean watertight platform or floor or into watertight receptacles. Concrete which has commenced to set shall not be re-mixed and shall not be used in the permanent Page 53 of 89 works. Quality Control and Testing Quality Control The Contractor shall provide full time on site a fully qualified Concrete Supervisor whose duties shall include day to day supervision of the constituents, concrete mixing, placing, sampling, testing and record keeping. The Contractor shall ensure that his Concrete Supervisor is aware of the importance of maintaining a uniform quality of concrete and that he is experienced in detecting variations in quality and workability and rapidly correcting the same. The Contractor shall carry out such tests as the Engineer may require to check the proportions of the ingredients of any concrete being produced. Testing of Concrete Three 150 mm test cubes shall be made from each sample of concrete taken from a section of work as required by the Engineer. Samples of each class of concrete shall be taken at the rate detailed or for each shift's work where this is less than the rate detailed. Cubes shall be made, transported, cured in accordance with EN 12390-2 and tested for compressive strength in accordance with EN 12390-3. Compliance with Characteristic Strength Compliance with the characteristic strength shall be assessed as provided for in EN 206-1:2000. Results of Tests The results of all works tests carried out to control the quality of concrete and concrete materials shall be recorded by the Contractor on suitable forms provided by him which shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer. The contractor shall supply to the Engineer three copies of the results of each test. Unsatisfactory Test Results Should any of the results of the specified works tests on concrete or materials be unsatisfactory the Engineer may take one of the following actions:i. Reject the work and instruct that the section of the Works to which unsatisfactory test results relate be cut out and replaced at the Contractor's expense. ii. Instruct the Contractor to carry out additional tests and/or works to ensure the soundness of the structure at the Contractor's expense. iii. Accept the work. Any decision to do so shall be with the Employer's approval and at the Engineer's discretion and the rate of payment for the appropriate items shall be decided by the Engineer. iv. In the case of any test result at 7 days being less than 55% of the characteristic strength, or an amended percentage based on test results for the trial mixes the Engineer may order that work affected be stopped but it shall not be liable to rejection until the results of the 28 day tests are known. Any delay to construction due to the results at 7 days being unsatisfactory shall be at the Contractor's expense. Following the failure of test cubes to reach the required standard, the Contractor shall, on the instructions of the Engineer, take one or both of the following steps: i. He shall alter his methods of making concrete and control its quality so as to reduce its variability. ii. He shall alter the proportions of the concrete mix so as to increase its compressive strength. Casting of Concrete Transportation of Concrete All concrete shall be transported in bottom-opening skips or vehicles of a type and size approved by the Engineer. Concrete shall be so transported and placed that contamination, segregation or loss of Page 54 of 89 the constituent materials does not occur. Placing Concrete Concrete shall not be placed in any part of the Works without the prior written approval of the Engineer who shall be given a minimum of 24 hours notice by the Contractor of his wish to do so. No concrete shall be placed outside normal working hours unless the Engineer so approves. Concrete shall be placed in its final position and all compaction shall be completed within 30 minutes of the time of commencement of mixing. Fresh concrete shall not be placed against previously placed concrete in the same pour which has been in position for more than 30 minutes or where the initial set has taken place. Concrete shall be placed and compacted in such a way that previously placed and compacted concrete is not disturbed. Concrete shall not be placed in a manner which in the Engineer's opinion precludes even distribution of its constituents and full compaction of the concrete. Concrete shall be placed uniformly in layers not exceeding 300 mm in depth in its final position in the works and shall not be caused to flow into position by vibration or other means. The surface of the work shall be kept generally horizontal. When the cement content of a mix exceeds 400 kg/m3 and the minimum dimension of concrete to be placed in a single pour exceeds 600 mm special precautions shall be taken to ensure high temperature differentials are not generated within the concrete. Concrete shall be placed in such a way as to avoid any joints other than the construction joints shown on the Drawings approved by the Engineer. No concrete shall be allowed to fall more than 1 metre during placing. If the Contractor proposes to place concrete by pumping or pneumatic means, he shall submit his proposals for the Engineer's approval and shall not commence operations until such approval has been obtained. Concreting During Wet Weather No concreting shall be carried out during periods of continuous heavy rain. If rain should interrupt concreting the concrete shall be adequately protected from it. Concreting During Hot Weather Concreting shall not be carried out if the temperature of the concrete mix rises above 38oC. Where concrete pours are greater than 1 m thick the temperature of the mix shall be reduced to below 32oC. When the air temperature rises above 35oC special measures to control mix temperature and evaporation from placed concrete shall be provided as set out in ACI 305R-77. 914 Compaction and Finish Concrete shall be compacted into place by means of a sufficient number of approved internal vibrators of adequate power with a frequency of not less than 100 hertz. Mechanical vibrators shall only be operated by trained and experienced workmen. Care shall be taken to avoid contact with reinforcement or formwork. Concrete shall be thoroughly worked around the reinforcement and against whatever surface it adjoins so that a dense homogeneous mass is produced, all entrained air is expelled and the concrete surface when exposed is free from air pockets, honeycombing and other defects. If vibrating screeds are used for slab work they shall be of sufficient power to compact the full depth of the slab being cast, over the full length of screed. All horizontal surfaces shall be finished with a brushed finish unless otherwise directed by the Engineer or shown on the Drawings. Attendance of Steel Fixer During concreting of all reinforced work a competent steel fixer shall be in attendance. It shall be his duty to ensure that the reinforcement and other embedded fittings are kept in position as the work proceeds. Page 55 of 89 Joints Structural Joints Structural joints shall be formed in the positions and to the details shown on the Drawings. Joint filler, sealing compounds and water bars shall be incorporated in these joints in strict accordance with the Drawings and manufacturer's instructions. The faces of structural joints shall have a wrought finish. Joint Filler Compressible filler sheets of the thicknesses shown on the Drawing shall be made of bitumen impregnated wood fibres to the approval of the Engineer. They shall not extrude when compressed and must return to at least 80% of the original thickness after the compressive force is removed. Joint Sealants Sealants for the joints shall be a cold two-part polysulphide based mix complying with ISO 11600. Protection and Curing Protecting Concrete Newly placed concrete shall not be disturbed in any way until it has thoroughly hardened. Newly placed concrete shall immediately be protected to the Engineer’s satisfaction against sun, rain and wind and from damage occasioned by other work in progress until it has hardened. No plant, vehicles, workmen or materials shall be permitted on recently placed concrete until the Engineer considers the concrete to be sufficiently strong and hard not to be damaged thereby. Curing Newly placed concrete shall either be sprayed with a concrete curing liquid immediately after completion of compaction, or shall be kept continually wet by a sprinkler or trickle system for 7 days or such other longer period as may be directed by the Engineer. In the event that a curing liquid is used, it shall have an efficiency index of 95% and a white pigment to reflect suns rays and shall be applied in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. Inspection and Records Inspection of Concrete Surfaces No concrete surface shall be worked on in any way after the removal of formwork, or covered up, until it has been inspected and approved by the Engineer. Tolerances Except where otherwise noted in Drawings concrete surfaces shall be cast within the tolerances set in BS 5606:1990. Records Records shall be kept by the Contractor of the positions in the Works of all batches of concrete, of their Class and of all test cubes, cores or other specimen taken from them. Three copies of these records shall be supplied to the Engineer as soon as possible but not later than 24 hours after concreting. Defective Concrete Concrete which is defective from any cause whatsoever shall, if so directed by the Engineer, be cut out and the work reconstructed at the Contractor's expense. If there is any doubt concerning the strength or quality of previously placed and hardened concrete, 150 mm diameter core samples shall be taken at locations directed by the Engineer, regardless of the results of works tests. The cores shall be tested in accordance with EN 12504: Part 1-2000 and the equivalent cube strength shall be determined. Page 56 of 89 SECTION VI: DRAWINGS Record Drawings The Sub-Contractor shall keep on site, at all times a complete set of the drawings related to this contract and as the Contract works are proceeded with, indicate in red color on such drawings, any variations to the Contract drawings. On completion of the Contract works, the Contractor shall furnish to the Engineers two SOFT copies and three hard copies prints of the drawings showing the Contract works as installed or fitted, or such other drawings and operating instructions for equipment as may be required.
