{"Image DocumentName": "Bidding Documents: Additional Deliverables in Consultancy Contract", "Image ImageDescription": "PE may revise an existing design contract to include additional deliverables, provided, that such revision will entail no additional payment or cost. NPM BCDA entered into a consultancy contract for the design of a proposed ramp that will connect C-5 Road to McKinley Parkway Road within Bonifacio Global City (BGC). The final design submitted by the consultant to, and is now pending approval of, BCDA was conceptualized prior to the construction of SM Aura in a parcel of land considered as a civic center in the Master Development Plan of BGC to which the ramp was designed to connect at level with the McKinley Parkway Road. However, BCDA feels that the present design will no longer be responsive to the traffic condition in the area due to the presence of SM Aura. BCDA deems it necessary to have the ramps re-designed in a way that will improve traffic movement and circulation in the area and the rest of BGC. Such re-design, however, will entail additional costs for the consultant. Section 61.1 of the revised Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Republic Act No. (RA) 9184 provide that all bid prices shall be considered as fixed prices, and therefore not subject to price adjustment and escalation during the contract implementation. Moreover, Section 2 of Annex F of the IRR of RA 9184 reiterates the principle that all consultancy contracts shall be fixed price contracts and any extension of contract time shall not involve any additional cost. Lastly, Clause 55.6 of the General Conditions of Contract of the Philippine Bidding Documents for the Procurement of Consulting Services provides that no additional payment for variation order, if any, shall be allowed for the consultancy contract.
