2. Additional 2.1 Bidders should provide/upload any additional information


Requirements requested in the Bidding Document.

3. Templates for Bill of Quantities (available on the e-PS)


1. Bill of Quantities

1.1. Objectives

The objectives of the Bill of Quantities are:

(a) to provide sufficient information on the quantities of Works to be performed to


enable bids to be prepared efficiently and accurately; and

(b) when a Contract has been entered into, to provide a priced Bill of Quantities for use
in the periodic valuation of Works executed.

In order to attain these objectives, Works should be itemized in the Bill of Quantities in sufficient
detail to distinguish between the different classes of Works, or between Works of the same
nature carried out in different locations or in other circumstances which may give rise to different
considerations of cost. Consistent with these requirements, the layout and contents of the Bill of
Quantities should be as simple and brief as possible.

1.2. Dayworks Schedule

A Dayworks Schedule should be included only if the probability of unforeseen work, outside the
items included in the Bill of Quantities, is high. To facilitate checking by the Public Body of the
realism of rates quoted by the bidders, the Dayworks Schedule should normally comprise the
following:

(a) A list of the various classes of labour, materials, and Constructional Plant for which
basic day work rates or prices are to be inserted by the Bidder, together with a
statement of the conditions under which the Contractor shall be paid for work
executed on a day work basis.

11
(b) Nominal quantities for each item of day work, to be priced by each Bidder at day
work rates as Bid. The rate to be entered by the Bidder against each basic day work
item should include the Contractor’s profit, overheads, supervision, and other
charges.

1.3. Provisional Sums

A general provision for physical contingencies (quantity overruns) may be made by including a
provisional sum in the Summary Bill of Quantities. Similarly, a contingency allowance for possible
price increases should be provided as a provisional sum in the Summary priced Bill of Quantities.
The inclusion of such provisional sums often facilitates budgetary approval by avoiding the need
to request periodic supplementary approvals as the future need arises. Where such provisional
sums or contingency allowances are used, the Particular Conditions of Contract should state the
manner in which they shall be used, and under whose authority (usually the Employer’s
Representative).

The estimated cost of specialized work to be carried out, or of special goods to be supplied, by
other contractors (refer to GCC Clause 8) should be indicated in the relevant part of the Bill of
Quantities as a particular provisional sum with an appropriate brief description. A separate
procurement procedure is normally carried out by the Public Body to select such specialized
contractors. To provide an element of competition among the bidders in respect of any facilities,
amenities, attendance, etc., to be provided by the successful Bidder as prime Contractor for the
use and convenience of the specialist contractors, each related provisional sum should be
followed by an item in the Bill of Quantities inviting the Bidder to quote a sum for such amenities,
facilities, attendance, etc.

These Notes for Preparing a Bill of Quantities are intended only as information for the
Public Body or the person drafting the Bidding Documents. They should not be included
in the final Documents.

2. Online submission of Bill of Quantities

Bidders shall fill in the response templates provided for the Bill of Quantities as prepared
by the public body in the system.

Bidders may for their convenience download a set of the BOQs in Excel format which is
available in the system as a separate attachment to the Bidding document. However, they
