SUBCONTRACTING<br />

Is subcontracting allowed <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>procurement</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>consulting</strong> <strong>service</strong>s?<br />

Unless o<strong>the</strong>rwise specified in <strong>the</strong> bidding documents, <strong>the</strong> Consultant may subcontract portions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Consulting Services to an extent as may be approved by <strong>the</strong> Procuring Entity and stated in <strong>the</strong> bidding<br />

documents.<br />

However, <strong>the</strong> discretion <strong>of</strong> whe<strong>the</strong>r or not to allow subcontracting arrangements is within <strong>the</strong> determination<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> procuring entity. The procuring entity also has <strong>the</strong> authority to specify <strong>the</strong> portions <strong>of</strong> Consulting<br />

Services and <strong>the</strong> maximum percentage allowed being subcontracted. Only a maximum <strong>of</strong> twenty percent<br />

(20%) <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Consulting Services may be subcontracted.<br />

Subcontracting <strong>of</strong> any portion shall not relieve <strong>the</strong> Bidder from any liability or obligation that may arise from<br />

<strong>the</strong> contract <strong>for</strong> this Project. The Supplier will be responsible <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> acts, defaults, and negligence <strong>of</strong> any<br />

subcontractor, its agents, servants or workmen as fully as if <strong>the</strong>se were <strong>the</strong> Supplier‟s own acts, defaults, or<br />

negligence, or those <strong>of</strong> its agents, servants or workmen.<br />

Subcontractors must comply with <strong>the</strong> eligibility criteria and <strong>the</strong> documentary requirements specified in <strong>the</strong><br />

bidding documents. In <strong>the</strong> event that any subcontractor is found by <strong>the</strong> Procuring Entity to be ineligible, <strong>the</strong><br />

subcontracting <strong>of</strong> such portion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Goods shall be disallowed.<br />

The Bidder may identify <strong>the</strong> subcontractor to whom a portion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Goods will be subcontracted at any<br />

stage <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> bidding process or during contract implementation. If <strong>the</strong> Bidder opts to disclose <strong>the</strong> name <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> subcontractor during bid submission, <strong>the</strong> Bidder shall include <strong>the</strong> required documents as part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

technical component <strong>of</strong> its bid.<br />

Subcontractors disclosed and identified during <strong>the</strong> bidding may be changed during <strong>the</strong> implementation <strong>of</strong><br />

this Contract, subject to compliance with <strong>the</strong> required qualifications and <strong>the</strong> approval <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Procuring<br />

Entity.<br />
