✓The scope of the contract is defined as a contract for works for supporting the Nature Solution Finance Hub of ADB, with clearly specified services, quantities and timelines.

✓Such as: the contractor must perform the services in the Terms of Reference (Annex 1), using the experts listed in the price schedule, and deliver a sequence of reports (Inception, MRV Framework, Pilot Implementation, Governance Simulation, Policy & Regulatory Assessment, Final Report & Scale‑up strategy).

✓Indicatively, total expert days are 95, distributed over milestones with deadlines up to 24 weeks after contract issue; the overall contract term in the draft contract runs from 02.12.2026 to 30.06.2027, with the final study/works due by 30.06.2027.

✓The place of supply for VAT purposes is Cambodia (GIZ ASEAN Team Cambodia in Phnom Penh), while workshops/meetings occur in one of ASEAN countries; GIZ provides logistics for events, whereas the contractor delivers technical content and budget calculations.

✓Travel quantities (e.g. 2 international trips per expert, taxis, visas) and a flexible remuneration item of EUR 5,000 are pre‑budgeted in the ToR/specification of inputs.

✓Award criteria and weighting are laid out in the “Terms and conditions for application” and the technical assessment grid.

✓Such as: bids are first evaluated technically using the assessment grid (concept and CVs), with a minimum threshold of 500 points; only those reaching 500 points are considered for financial evaluation.

✓Technical and financial bids are weighted 70% (technical) and 30% (financial), with fixed budget items in the price schedule excluded from financial scoring.

✓The technical grid breaks down criteria for the contractor’s strategy, project management, cooperation, learning/innovation, personnel assignment plan, and detailed qualifications of the team leader and key experts (education, language, general and specific professional experience, regional and DC experience, soft skills, backstopping concept).

✓Variant tenders are not permitted and will be excluded, although the main tender remains valid.

✓GIZ reserves the right to request a presentation of the tender and personnel to verify that the concept and team guarantee successful implementation.

✓Risks and special conditions are governed mainly by the Terms and Conditions 2025 and the application terms.

✓Such as: integrity provisions ban facilitation payments and gifts over EUR 35/year/recipient and impose contractual penalties up to EUR 50,000 (or equal to the pecuniary advantage in bribery cases), along with mandatory corruption reporting.

✓There is a contractual penalty of 0.5% of the relevant remuneration per week of delay after a grace period (capped at 5%).

✓The contractor must comply with confidentiality, information security incident reporting, and data protection (GDPR‑related annexes), accept GIZ’s precedence clauses over its own general terms, and cannot assign claims without written approval.

✓The tender is binding until 16.12.2026, with planned award notification on 01.12.2026 and service commencement on 02.12.2026.

✓GIZ checks sanctions lists (UN/EU), false self‑employment risk, and creditworthiness (via Creditreform) and may exclude bidders from “non‑covered third countries”.

✓No negotiations occur in this public invitation; changes to tenders must be in the same form as the original and unequivocal.

✓Regarding contradictions or corrections, the hierarchy and applicable statements are explicitly defined.

✓Such as: in case of discrepancy, the components of the contract apply in the following order—(1) the signed contract for services/works or award notification with its annexes (including ToR, final price schedule, technical bid, consortial declaration), (2) the Terms and Conditions 2025 with annexes, and (3) VOL/B.

✓The documents also clarify form requirements: amendments affecting the price schedule or key experts must be in written form using the eProcurement platform; other communications may be in text form.

✓Where the ToR or price schedule specify that certain costs are “against evidence” or “lump sum”, that specification governs reimbursement; flexible remuneration can only be used with prior GIZ consent in text form and cannot increase fees or lump‑sum rates.
