C2.1 Pricing assumptions: Option B

How work is priced and assessed for payment

Clause 11 in NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC3) Option B states:

Identified and 11

defined terms 11.2 (21) The Bill of Quantities is the bill of quantities as changed in accordance

with this contract to accommodate implemented compensation events and for

accepted quotations for acceleration.

(28) The Price for Work Done to Date is the total of

• the quantity of the work which the Contractor has completed for each item

in the Bill of Quantities multiplied by the rate and

• a proportion of each lump sum which is the proportion of the work covered

by the item which the Contractor has completed.

Completed work is work without Defects which would either delay or be

covered by immediately following work.

(31) The Prices are the lump sums and the amounts obtained by multiplying

the rates by the quantities for the items in the Bill of Quantities.

This confirms that Option B is a re-measurement contract and the bill comprises only items measured using

quantities and rates or stated as lump sums. Value related items are not used. Time related items are items

measured using rates where the rate is a unit of time.

Function of the Bill of Quantities

Clause 55.1 in Option B states, “Information in the Bill of Quantities is not Works Information or Site

Information”. This confirms that specifications and descriptions of the work or any constraints on how it is to

be done are not included in the Bill, but in the Works Information. This is further confirmed by Clause 20.1

which states, “The Contractor Provides the Works in accordance with the Works Information”. Hence the

Contractor does not Provide the Works in accordance with the Bill of Quantities. The Bill of Quantities is

only a pricing document.

Guidance before pricing and measuring

Employers preparing tenders or contract documents, and tendering contractors are advised to consult the

sections dealing with the bill of quantities in the NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract Guidance

Notes before preparing the bill of quantities or before entering rates and lump sums into the bill.

There is no general provision in Option B for payment for materials on Site before incorporation into the

works. If secondary Option X14 Advanced payment has not been used then the tendering contractor may

obtain the same effect by inserting appropriate items in the method related charges where the method of

measurement allows, or alternatively making allowance in the rates of the bill of quantities for the financing

of Plant and Materials until they are incorporated in the works.

When compensation events arise, the default position is that the Bill of Quantities is not used to calculate

the cost effect of the event. Defined Cost and the resulting Fee is used and Defined Cost includes all

components of cost which the Contractor is likely to incur, including so called P & G items. Rates and

lump sums from the Bill of Quantities, or from any other source, may be used instead of Defined Cost and

the Fee only if the Contractor and Project Manager agree. If they are unable to agree, then Defined Cost

plus Fee is used.

General assumptions

Unless otherwise stated, items are measured net in accordance with the drawings, and no allowance

has been made in the quantities for waste.

The Prices and rates stated for each item in the Bill of Quantities shall be treated as being fully

inclusive of all work, risks, liabilities, obligations, overheads, profit and everything necessary as

incurred or required by the Contractor in carrying out or providing that item.

An item against which no Price is entered will be treated as covered by other Prices or rates in the

bill of quantities.

The quantities contained in the Bill of Quantities may not be final and do not necessarily represent

the actual amount of work to be done. The quantities of work assessed and certified for payment by

the Project Manager at each assessment date will be used for determining payments due.

The short descriptions of the items of payment given in the bill of quantities are only for the

purposes of identifying the items. Detail regarding the extent of the work entailed under each item is

provided in the Works Information.

Not applicable to the supposed tender. The document defines the plan's 'Applicability' to all Eskom Transmission business areas (Network Service Provider, Systems Operator, Market Operator) and their associated units across South Africa.

The document is a waste management plan, not the tender for Muldersvlei 11kV Switchgear. Key points from the plan include:

• Scope: To assess current waste management and develop measures for waste avoidance and minimisation across Eskom Transmission operations.
• Purpose: To prevent environmental deterioration and negative health impacts through waste reduction, segregation, collection, and disposal practices.
• Applicability: Applies to the National Transmission Company for implementing, maintaining, and improving waste management practices.
• The plan references numerous standards and regulations, including ISO 14001, the National Environmental Management: Waste Act, and Eskom's internal Waste Management Standard (32-245).
• It includes definitions for waste types (e.g., hazardous, general, asbestos, PCB waste) and outlines waste handling, storage, classification, and disposal practices.

Site Assessment Details: A physical inspection was conducted at sampled Business Units. The table lists 19 specific sites visited, including Simmerpan facilities, Rotek Tower, Apollo Converter Station, Kusile construction site, Duvha Power Station, and various substations.

The document lists sites visited during the waste management plan assessment (e.g., Simmerpan Clinic, Rotek Tower Testing Station Laboratory). It references quality management standards like ISO 9001:2015 but does not specify quality requirements for the Muldersvlei switchgear tender.

The waste management plan references extensive legislative and standards compliance, but these are not specific to the Muldersvlei tender. Key references include:

• Must comply with the Eskom Waste Management Standard (32-245).
• Adherence to normative standards: ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management).
• Compliance with a wide range of South African legislation including the National Environmental Management: Waste Act, National Water Act, Occupational Health and Safety Act, and municipal by-laws.
• Specific requirements for handling hazardous waste, asbestos, PCBs, and health care risk waste.
• Waste generators retain 'cradle to grave' responsibility; using contractors does not transfer liability.
• Contractors must be registered on Eskom's supplier database and be competent.

The document extensively references health, safety, and environmental legislation and standards, including:

• Occupational Health and Safety Act, 1993.
• Hazardous Substances Act, 1973.
• Asbestos Abatement Regulations.
• Requirements for safety data sheets (SDS), personal protective equipment (PPE).
• Defines hazardous waste, health care risk waste, and outlines safe handling, storage, and disposal practices.
• These are general requirements from the waste management plan, not specific to the Muldersvlei tender.

The document is fundamentally an environmental waste management plan. Key points include:

• Prepared under the National Environmental Management: Waste Act.
• Aims to avoid/minimise waste, prevent pollution, and phase out hazardous substances like PCBs and asbestos.
• Includes an implementation plan, financial provisions for budgeting, and monitoring/review processes.
• References numerous environmental regulations, conventions (Basel, Stockholm, Paris Agreement), and standards (SANS series for waste classification and transport).
• Defines key environmental terms (pollution, contaminant, priority waste, remediation).

The extracted text outlines the business structure and mandates of Eskom Transmission's various units (Network Service Provider, Systems Operator, Market Operator, International Trader). It does not contain contractual terms for the Muldersvlei tender.

Regulatory Compliance Findings: The waste management plan's gap analysis notes:

• A general understanding of legislation exists but needs improvement.
• Waste practices must align with Environmental Management Programmes (EMPr) and internal standards.
• Some sites trigger Section 21 water uses under the National Water Act.
• Compliance with municipal by-laws is required.
• Challenges exist in remote/mountainous areas.

The document lists normative and informative references (e.g., ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, various Acts and standards) but does not provide evaluation criteria for scoring bids for the Muldersvlei tender.

• The document does not specify compliance requirements (CSD, tax, B-BBEE, CIDB, etc.).
• Bidders should assume standard Eskom compliance requirements apply: valid CSD registration, tax clearance, B-BBEE certificate, and any relevant professional registrations for electrical work.
• Confirm requirements with the Eskom contact once the full RFQ is obtained.

• Compliance requirements could not be extracted from the provided document (insufficient searchable text).
• Bidders should obtain the full RFQ document from Eskom to confirm all mandatory compliance certificates and declarations.
