Ic is urged to consolidate similar issues in individual transmittals and present with attachments, referecnes to standards and bid documents. It is also important that such issues shall not cause delays to procurements of items, especially when part items can be ordered to avoid delays in procurement schedule. It is mandatory that IC starts presenting materials for approvals for MEP items as soon as possible.

//The following information was provided to all the bidders at the bidding stage regarding patrol road lighting and associated transformers. 
a.    Refer to IFB write-up PE-000002, page 7/71.
b.    Refer to Q&A Item 12, Page 3/23.
c.    Refer to addendum Dwg PA-000095 sheets 001-018 showing lighting poles.
d.    Refer to addendum Dwg PA-000095 sheets 003, 006, 009, 014 & 017 showing transformers.

Based on the above references, it is quite clear that all requirements of streets lights on patrol road were adequately conveyed to all bidders, when they were not indicated on the original IFB drawings. All addendums are a part of the agreed scope of work. It is bidder’s responsibility to incorporate and consolidate all the information added to the initial conceptual basic design in a LSTK contract and develop a detailed design based on the agreed and signed scope of work. Furthermore, contractor must investigate all information provided and raise any ambiguities for clarifications before bidding. 

Referring to the meeting held on February 09, 2014, with ICC and SCEC, where ICC was adamant to declare the above work as out of scope, SAPMT does not agree with ICC claims as explained above. ICC is urged to provide adequate street lights, cables, terminations, transformers, distribution panels, and all related fixtures and fittings, including associated adjustments if any to the power source, and ensure that said work is completed in all respects to fulfill the desired purpose, according to SA standards.
