purposes of these paragraphs, a substantially responsive tender is one which conforms to all

offered from within Kenya, such price to include all costs, as well as duties and taxes paid
or payable on components and raw material incorporated or to be incorporated in the goods.
23.4 The Procuring entity‟s evaluation of a tender will take into account, in addition to the tender
price and the price of incidental services, the following factors, in the manner and to the
extent indicated in paragraph 23.5 and in the technical specifications:

(b) deviations in payment schedule from that specified in the Special Conditions of

Tenders offering deliveries longer than the procuring entity‟s required delivery
time will be treated as non-responsive and rejected.
(b) Deviation in payment schedule.
Tenderers shall state their tender price for the payment of schedule outlined in
the special conditions of contract. Tenders will be evaluated on the basis of this
base price. Tenderers are, however, permitted to state an alternative payment
schedule and indicate the reduction in tender price they wish to offer for such
alternative payment schedule. The Procuring entity may consider the alternative
payment schedule offered by the selected tenderer.
(c) Spare parts and after sales service facilities .
Tenderers must offer items with service and spares parts back-up. Documentary
evidence and locations of such back- up must be given. Where a tenderer offers items
without such back-up in the country, he must give documentary evidence and
assurance that he will establish adequate back-up for items supplied.

capabilities. It will be based upon an examination of the documentary evidence of the
tenderers qualifications submitted by the tenderer, pursuant to paragraph 12.3, as well as
such other information as the Procuring entity deems necessary and appropriate.
25.3 An affirmative determination will be a prerequisite for award of the contract to the tenderer.

determination of that Tenderer‟s capabilities to perform satisfactorily.

award has engaged in corrupt or fraudulent practices in competing for the contract in
question;
