68 Material procured with
assistance of
employer/return of surplus:
to be supplied by the EMPLOYER. If, however, in the
opinion of the ENGINEER-IN-CHARGE the execution of
the WORK is likely to be delayed due to the
CONTRACTOR's inability to make arrangements for supply
of materials which normally he has to arrange for, the
ENGINEER-IN-CHARGE shall have the right at his own
discretion to issue such materials, if available with the
EMPLOYER or procure the materials from the market or as
elsewhere and the CONTRACTOR will be bound to take
such materials at the rates decided by the
ENGINEER-IN-CHARGE. This, however, does not in any
way absolve the CONTRACTOR from responsibility of
making arrangements for the supply of such materials in
part or in full, should such a situation occur nor shall this
constitute a reason for the delay in the execution of the
WORK.
viii) None of the materials supplied to the CONTRACTOR will
be utilised by the CONTRACTOR for manufacturing item
which can be obtained as supplied from standard
manufacturer in finished form.
ix) The CONTRACTOR shall, if desired by the ENGINEER-
IN-CHARGE, be required to execute an Indemnity Bond in
the prescribed form for safe custody and accounting of all
materials issued by the EMPLOYER.
x) The CONTRACTOR shall furnish to the ENGINEER-IN-
CHARGE sufficiently in advance a statement showing his
requirement of the quantities of the materials to be supplied
by the EMPLOYER and the time when the same will be
required by him for the works, so as to enable the
ENGINEER-IN-CHARGE to make necessary
arrangements for procurement and supply of the material.
xi) Account of the materials issued by the EMPLOYER shall
be maintained by CONTRACTOR indicating the daily
receipt, consumption and balance in hand. This account
shall be maintained in a manner prescribed by the
ENGINEER-IN-CHARGE along with all connected papers
viz. requisitions, issues, etc., and shall be always available
for inspection in the CONTRACTOR's office at SITE.
xii) The CONTRACTOR should see that only the required
quantities of materials are got issued. The CONTRACTOR
shall not be entitled to cartage and incidental charges for
returning the surplus materials, if any, to the stores
wherefrom they were issued or to the place as directed by
the ENGINEER-IN-CHARGE.
xiii) Materials/Equipment(s) supplied by EMPLOYER shall not
be utilised for any purpose(s) than issued for.
68.1 Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in any or all the
clauses of this CONTRACT where any materials for the execution
of the CONTRACT are procured with the assistance of the
EMPLOYER either by issue from EMPLOYER's stock or purchases
made under order or permits or licences issued by Government, the
CONTRACTOR shall hold the said materials as trustee for the
EMPLOYER and use such materials economically and solely for the
purpose of the CONTRACT and not dispose them off without the
permission of the EMPLOYER and return, if required by the
ENGINEER-IN-CHARGE, shall determine having due regard to the
