Adjustments
for Changes in
Costs
In this Sub-Clause, "table of adjustment data" means the completed table of adjustment data
as shown in the end of this Sub-Clause
If this Sub-Clause applies, the amounts payable to the Contractor shall be adjusted for rises
or falls in the cost of labour, Goods and other inputs to the Works, by the addition or deduction of the amounts determined by the formulae prescribed in this Sub-Clause To the extent that full compensation for any rise or fall in Costs is not covered by the provisions of this or other Clauses, the Contract Price shall be deemed to have included amounts to cover the contingency of other rises and falls in costs
The adjustment to be applied to the amount otherwise payable to the Contractor (before deducting retention and before excluding repayment of the advance payment), as valued in accordance with the appropriate Schedule and certified as Interim Payment shall be determined from formulae for each of the currencies in which the Contract Price is payable
No adjustment is to be applied to the followings:
- work executed under nominated subcontractors, provisional sum, dayworks, variations if they are rated based on actual cost or current prices;
- any other items based on actual cost or current prices, and bonuses (if any); and
- adjustment under this Sub-Clause 13.8 The formulae shall be of the following general type:
Trang 22PCC 15/20 Final
Pn = a + b Ln/Lo + c En/Eo + d Mn/Mo
Where:
“Pn" is the adjustment multiplier to be applied to the estimated contract value in the
relevant currency of the work carried out in period "n", this period being a month unless otherwise stated in the Appendix to Tender;
“a" is a fixed coefficient, stated in the relevant table of adjustment data, representing
the non-adjustable portion in contractual payments;
“b", "c" and “d” are coefficients representing the estimated proportion of each cost
element related to the execution of the Works as stated in the relevant table of adjustment data; such tabulated cost elements may be indicative of resources such as labour, equipment and materials;
“Ln", "En" and “Mn” are the current cost indices or reference prices for period "n",
expressed in the relevant currency of payment, each of which is applicable to the relevant tabulated cost element on the day 28 days prior to the last day of the period to which a particular Interim Payment is related; and
“Lo", "Eo" and “Mo” are the base cost indices or reference prices, expressed in the
relevant currency of payment, each of which is applicable to the relevant tabulated cost element on the day 28 days prior to the closing date for submission of bids
The cost indices or reference prices stated in the table of adjustment data shall be used If their source is in doubt, it shall be determined by the Employer’s Representative
In cases where the "currency of index" (stated in the table) is not the relevant currency of payment, each index shall be converted into the relevant currency of payment at the selling rate, established by the central bank of the Country, of this relevant currency on the above date for which the index is required to be applicable
Until such time as each current cost index is available, the Employer’s Representative shall determine a provisional index for the Interim Payment When a current cost index is available, the adjustment shall be recalculated accordingly
If the Contractor fails to complete the Works within the Time for Completion prescribed under Clause 8.2, adjustment of prices thereafter shall be made using either (i) each index or price applicable on the date 28 days prior to the expiry of the Time for Completion of the Works, or (ii) the current index or price: whichever is more favourable to the Employer Provided that if
an extension of time is granted pursuant to Clause 8.4, the above provision shall apply only
to adjustments made after the expiry of such extension of time
The weightings (coefficients: b, c and d) for each of the factors of cost stated in the table(s)
of adjustment data shall be proposed by the Tenderers within the ranges specified, and shall
be agreed by the Employer during the Contract Negotiations The weightings shall only be adjusted if they have been rendered unreasonable, unbalanced or inapplicable, as a result of Variations
