ANNEX NO. 12 OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENT







PROCEDURE GOVERNING CHANGES TO THE TECHNICAL PROPOSAL DUE TO REBRANDING, CHANGES TO EQUIPMENT MODEL OR INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPLIER PROPOSED BY THE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK AND THE ACCESS NETWORK


 


1.          MISSION STATEMENT


 


This document governs the requirements and procedure for the approval of rebranding, changes to equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier proposed by THE CONTRACTED PARTY in its TECHNICAL PROPOSAL for the ACCESS NETWORK and the TRANSPORTATION NETWORK.


 


2.          PURPOSE


 


To streamline and optimize the procedure for the approval of rebranding, changes to equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier proposed by THE CONTRACTED PARTY in its TECHNICAL PROPOSAL for the ACCESS NETWORK and the TRANSPORTATION NETWORK.


 


3.          GENERAL PROVISIONS


 


THE CONTRACTED PARTY has an obligation to provide the ACCESS NETWORK and the TRANSPORTATION NETWORK with the goods offered in the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL, which meet the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS of the RULES of the PROJECT Tender and are a component of the FINANCING AGREEMENT.


 


Notwithstanding the above, it is possible to introduce changes to the FINANCING AGREEMENT and thereby to THE CONTRACTED PARTY’s TECHNICAL PROPOSAL, with respect to branding, equipment models or infrastructure suppliers covered in this document, provided that this is necessary for PROJECT compliance and that the change, as a whole, will match or improve the conditions of quality and continuity set out in the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS.


 


All proposals for changes to branding, equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier must be undertaken at the risk of THE CONTRACTED PARTY, without this giving it the right to request additional resources from FITEL in addition to the AWARDED FINANCING.


 


In addition, given that THE CONTRACTED PARTY has the authority to propose changes to branding, equipment models and/or infrastructure suppliers which, as a whole, will match or improve those offered in the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL, it cannot use the time taken for the procedure to approve the changes as grounds to request extended deadlines beyond the maximum investment period of the Access and Transportation Networks for the Project.


 


4.          SPECIFIC PROVISIONS


 


4.1.       Applicability


 


Submissions of requests for changes to branding, equipment models and infrastructure suppliers will proceed when it is verified that the change to the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL is merited in these circumstances, which are required to optimize proper performance of the PROJECT.


 


These requests derive mainly, but not entirely, from reasons underpinned by technological change, lack of availability, changes in economic conditions, improvements in shipping facilities, and other circumstances that could be necessary and beneficial in the implementation of the PROJECT. In this regard, the assessment criteria for proceeding with requests for changes in branding, equipment models and infrastructure suppliers must always be directed towards the benefit of executing the PROJECT.


 











 


4.2.       Requirement for approval of changes to Technical Specifications


 



		·	
The change as a whole must match or improve the conditions of quality and continuity originally established







 


All proposals for changes to branding, equipment model and infrastructure supplier must at least meet the conditions for continuity and quality set out in the RULES of the Tender.


 


In addition, approval will only be given for changes to branding, equipment models and infrastructure suppliers when the evaluation as a whole determines that the proposal for change meets or exceeds the conditions offered by THE CONTRACTED PARTY in the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL.


 


4.3.       Procedure


 



	4.3.1.	
 Submission of Proposal for Change







 


THE CONTRACTED PARTY must submit a fully justified and supported proposal for changes to branding, equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier, including all relevant documentation to demonstrate fulfilment of the requirements detailed in Item 4.1 and 4.2 above.


 


The change request must be sent to the Technical Secretary of FITEL and submitted in writing to the Registry Office of the Ministry of Transport and Communication, at Jirón Zorritos 1203, Lima 1.


 


In addition, the request to change the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL due to changes in branding, equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier, must include at least the following:


 



		·	
Documents accrediting the request, which justify the factors relating to the cause invoked, which must include an evaluation of the need for change to branding, equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier in the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL, and the fulfilment of the conditions of quality and continuity required in the Rules.







 



		·	
Comparison tables which overall demonstrate the equality or superiority of the materials and/or equipment in the proposal for change submitted, accredited by technical brochures, manuals, manufacturer data sheets and other similar documents deemed as relevant







 


All proposals for change must be submitted by THE CONTRACTED PARTY in due time, bearing in mind the Activity Schedule.


 


4.3.2.    Review, evaluation and approval by FITEL


 


FITEL must review the proposal for changes in branding, equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier, within a maximum of fifteen (15) working days.


 


To comply with this, FITEL will issue a statement authorizing the approval of the requested change, after technical evaluation by the Project Monitoring Department. This decision will be communicated by the Technical Secretary to THE CONTRACTED PARTY in writing within the period of fifteen (15) working days set out for the review.


 











Otherwise, if there are comments, FITEL will pass these to THE CONTRACTED PARTY within a maximum of ten (10) working days, in order for these to be rectified and/or any additional supplementary documentation to be provided. In any case, FITEL will review rectifications within a maximum of fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the rectification in writing and will be governed by the provisions in the preceding paragraph.


 


If, despite the deadline given, THE CONTRACTED PARTY fails to comply fully with the observations made or if these do not assure the continuity and quality of services pursuant to the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS, FITEL will reject the proposal to change branding, equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier.







In cases of approval of changes to the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL due to changes in branding, equipment model and/or infrastructure supplier, it will not be necessary to execute a later addendum with THE CONTRACTED PARTY, for the change to the FINANCING AGREEMENT to be valid.








	5.	
  FINAL CONSIDERATIONS













	5.1.	
 Obligations derived from the change to the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS







 


In the case of changes made during the OPERATING PERIOD, THE CONTRACTED PARTY is obliged to adopt and implement all necessary actions in order that the changes to infrastructure, equipment and other items do not degrade the provision of the services set out in the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL, which includes, but is not limited to, the preparation of contingency plans, specifying the commitments of the CONTRACTED PARTY on the periods of service impact and recovery, and other measures to ensure the continuity and quality of services, as provided in the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS of the FINANCING AGREEMENT.







The specific procedure governed in this Annex will prevail over any other contractual provision governing changes to the technical proposal in general for the TRANSPORTATION NETWORK and the ACCESS network.
