Deliverables & Payment Schedule

From the Scope of Work (specified under TOR) vis-

à-vis Deliverable schedule mentioned in the subject

reference, it is understood that the outlined

schedule for the assignment is very inadequate.

The topo surveys of 5000 acres of land and the

Market Demand Assessment Study will itself take a

time of 6 months. These are the two dependent

factors on which the Conceptual and Detailed

Master Plan will be based. Moreover the detailed

cost estimates and detailed drawings will require

significant time to produce meaningful quality

deliverable. Thus in the interest of „realistic project

timelines and the quality‟, we strongly recommend

following Schedule.
