（二）在特殊條件下，在原標(biāo)書有效期結(jié)束前，業(yè)主或其代理人可要求投標(biāo)者延長其標(biāo)書有效期。業(yè)主的要求和投標(biāo)者的答復(fù)均應(yīng)是書面的，或采用電傳、電報(bào)形式。投標(biāo)者可以拒絕這樣的要求，且不會因此失去其投標(biāo)保函。答應(yīng)這樣要求的投標(biāo)者不得改動其標(biāo)書，但被要求順延其投標(biāo)保函有效期。條款十四中有關(guān)投標(biāo)保函的返還和失去的規(guī)定同樣適用于延長期。
十四、（一）投標(biāo)者應(yīng)隨其標(biāo)書提交一份人民幣投標(biāo)保函，金額不少于投標(biāo)價格的２％。

（四）任何未附可接受的投標(biāo)保函的標(biāo)書都將被Ａ公司拒絕。

（四）業(yè)主或其代理人將根據(jù)自已的記錄準(zhǔn)備開標(biāo)會議記錄，并將盡快與評標(biāo)報(bào)告一起遞交世界銀行。
二十三、過程保密
（一）在公開開標(biāo)后，在向成功投標(biāo)者授標(biāo)前，有關(guān)對標(biāo)書的檢查、解釋、評估及比較以及對授標(biāo)的建議等信息不應(yīng)讓投標(biāo)者或其他與評標(biāo)過程無關(guān)的人士知曉。
（二）如果投標(biāo)者試圖在此過程中對業(yè)主施加影響，其投標(biāo)將被拒絕。
二十四、對標(biāo)書的解釋
為了幫助檢查、評價和比較標(biāo)書，業(yè)主和Ａ公司可要求投標(biāo)者就其標(biāo)書作出解釋，包括單位價格細(xì)目表。提出解釋要求和相應(yīng)的回答均應(yīng)是書面的，或通過電傳或電報(bào)進(jìn)行。除非按條款二十六的規(guī)定，應(yīng)要求對業(yè)主在評標(biāo)過程中發(fā)現(xiàn)的數(shù)學(xué)計(jì)算錯誤進(jìn)行更正，不得對價格或其他標(biāo)書要素進(jìn)行修改。
二十五、判定是否符合要求
（一）在詳細(xì)的評標(biāo)前，業(yè)主和Ａ公司將判定每份標(biāo)書是否符合投標(biāo)文件的要求。
（二）符合要求的標(biāo)書是符合投標(biāo)文件的所有條件和規(guī)格，而沒有實(shí)質(zhì)上的偏差或保留。實(shí)質(zhì)偏差是指對工程的范圍、質(zhì)量、管理有實(shí)質(zhì)影響，或與投標(biāo)文件不符，對合同中業(yè)主的權(quán)利和投標(biāo)者的義務(wù)有實(shí)質(zhì)性限制。糾正這樣的偏差或保留，將對其他提交符合要求的標(biāo)書的投資者的競爭力有不公正的影響。
（三）不符合投標(biāo)文件要求的標(biāo)書將被業(yè)主和Ａ公司拒絕。
二十六、改正錯誤
（一）被判定實(shí)際符合要求的標(biāo)書，將由業(yè)主檢查是否有數(shù)學(xué)計(jì)算方面的錯誤。以下錯誤將由業(yè)主改正：
（１）當(dāng)數(shù)字與文字表示的數(shù)額不同時，以文字表示為準(zhǔn)，除非文中明確以數(shù)字表示為準(zhǔn)；
（２）當(dāng)單價和以單價乘以數(shù)量得到的總價不同時，以單價報(bào)價為準(zhǔn)，除非業(yè)主認(rèn)為單價存在嚴(yán)重錯誤，在這樣的情況下，以總價報(bào)價為準(zhǔn)，改正單價錯誤。
（二）業(yè)主可按上述步驟對標(biāo)書所列數(shù)額錯誤進(jìn)行更正，如此更正得到投標(biāo)者的首肯，則對投標(biāo)者有約束力。如果投標(biāo)者認(rèn)為更正的數(shù)額會給其造成困難，可撤標(biāo)。不過撤標(biāo)使投標(biāo)者面臨失去投標(biāo)保證書的危險(xiǎn)。
二十七、換算成一種貨幣
投標(biāo)價格指應(yīng)按一定比例以不同貨幣向投標(biāo)者支付的款額。為了評價和比較標(biāo)書，業(yè)主可把不同貨幣表示的數(shù)額（不包括臨時費(fèi)用，但包括加班費(fèi)）以中國銀行開標(biāo)日人民幣賣出價將其換算成人民幣。
二十八、評價和比較標(biāo)書
（一）業(yè)主和Ａ公司只評價和比較那些被判定符合投標(biāo)文件要求的標(biāo)書。只對基本報(bào)價進(jìn)行評比，對評價最低的標(biāo)書授予合同。
（二）在評標(biāo)中，業(yè)主通過下列對報(bào)價的調(diào)整，確定每份標(biāo)書的投標(biāo)價格：
（１）按條款二十六改正錯誤；
（２）除去臨時費(fèi)用和相關(guān)條款。如果發(fā)生臨時費(fèi)用，計(jì)入工程量表中的偶發(fā)事件。應(yīng)包括有競爭力的加班費(fèi)用；
（３）換算成一種貨幣；
（４）按條款二十八（三），估加起動貸款費(fèi)用；
（５）對在標(biāo)書價格和上述調(diào)整中未得到反映的，其他數(shù)量變更、偏差或替代報(bào)價進(jìn)行適當(dāng)?shù)恼{(diào)整；
（６）其他業(yè)主認(rèn)為對執(zhí)行合同、價格和支付有潛在巨大影響的因素，包括標(biāo)書中不平衡、不現(xiàn)實(shí)的單價的作用。
（三）在評標(biāo)中，每個投標(biāo)者按條款十五（一）的規(guī)定要求的不同的起動貸款給業(yè)主造成的費(fèi)用，按年貼息率９％計(jì)算，應(yīng)加在投標(biāo)者的投標(biāo)價格上。
（四）業(yè)主和Ａ公司保留接受或拒絕任何變更、偏差和替代報(bào)價的權(quán)利。超出投標(biāo)文件要求的變更、偏差、替代報(bào)價和其他因素，或?qū)⒔o業(yè)主帶來非主動提出的利益的因素在評標(biāo)中不予以考慮。
（五）在合同執(zhí)行期內(nèi)適用的價格調(diào)整條款在評標(biāo)中不予以考慮。
（六）如果成功投標(biāo)者的報(bào)價與工程師對合同工程所需實(shí)際費(fèi)用的估計(jì)相差很遠(yuǎn)，業(yè)主將要求成功投標(biāo)者自己承擔(dān)費(fèi)用，把按條款三十四提交的履約保函增加，使業(yè)主能避免成功投標(biāo)者今后在執(zhí)行合同中因錯誤引起的損失。

（一）國內(nèi)投標(biāo)者滿足以下條件，即在評標(biāo)過程中有資格享受７．５％的優(yōu)惠：
