Additional

Services, and

Performance

Incentive

Compensation

breakdown of the lump-sum price is provided in Appendices D

and E.

6.3.2 If the SCC so specify, the service provider shall be paid

performance incentive compensation as set out in the

6.4 Terms and

Conditions of

Payments will be made to the Service Provider according to the

Supplies) shall be made against the provision by the Service Provider

of a bank guarantee for the same amount, and shall be valid for the

period stated in the SCC. Any other payment shall be made after the

conditions listed in the SCC for such payment have been met, and the

Service Provider have submitted an invoice to the Employer

specifying the amount due.

6.5 Interest on

Delayed

Payments

If the Employer has delayed payments beyond fifteen (15) days after

the due date stated in the SCC, interest shall be paid to the Service

Provider for each day of delay at the rate stated in the SCC.

6.6 Price

Adjustment

6.6.1 Prices shall be adjusted for fluctuations in the cost of inputs only

if provided for in the SCC. If so provided, the amounts certified

in each payment certificate, after deducting for Advance

Payment, shall be adjusted by applying the respective price

adjustment factor to the payment amounts due in each currency.

A separate formula of the type indicated below applies to each

Contract currency:

Pc = Ac + Bc Lmc/Loc + Cc Imc/Ioc Where:

36

Pc is the adjustment factor for the portion of the Contract Price

payable in a specific currency “c”.

Ac , Bc and Cc are coefficients specified in the SCC, representing:

Ac the nonadjustable portion; Bc the adjustable portion relative

to labor costs and Cc the adjustable portion for other inputs, of

the Contract Price payable in that specific currency “c”; and

Lmc is the index prevailing at the first day of the month of the

corresponding invoice date and Loc is the index prevailing 28

days before Bid opening for labor; both in the specific currency

“c”.

Imc is the index prevailing at the first day of the month of the

corresponding invoice date and Ioc is the index prevailing 28

days before Bid opening for other inputs payable; both in the

specific currency “c”.

If a price adjustment factor is applied to payments made in a

currency other than the currency of the source of the index for a

particular indexed input, a correction factor Zo/Zn will be

applied to the respective component factor of pn for the formula

of the relevant currency. Zo is the number of units of currency

of the country of the index, equivalent to one unit of the

currency payment on the date of the base index, and Zn is the

corresponding number of such currency units on the date of the

current index.

6.6.2 If the value of the index is changed after it has been used in a

calculation, the calculation shall be corrected and an adjustment

made in the next payment certificate. The index value shall be

deemed to take account of all changes in cost due to fluctuations

in costs.

6.7 Dayworks

6.7.1 If applicable, the Daywork rates in the Service Provider’s Bid

shall be used for small additional amounts of Services only when

the Employer has given written instructions in advance for

additional services to be paid in that way.

6.7.2 All work to be paid for as Dayworks shall be recorded by the

Service Provider on forms approved by the Employer. Each

completed form shall be verified and signed by the Employer

representative as indicated in Sub-Clause 1.6 within two days of
