[4] PREPARATION OF PROJECTS
G.L. No. 42/10-SC-(16) dated 28th November, 1931
Out of the three courses mentioned in paragraph 305 of the Financial Handbook,
Volume V, Part-I, the one under sub-paragraph (b) being the most expensive, should

In case of delay in preparation of standard plans and estimates of execution of
works by the P.W.D., the District Judges should report the same to the Court so that the
Government may be apprised of the position.
[5] WORKS BY CONTRACTORS
(i) Tenders
G.L. No. 14/67-6 dated 27th March, 1939
When any construction or work is to be carried out tenders should be invited so as
to introduce the element of competition and secure the most favourable terms. In order to
invite tenders it is necessary to describe what is wanted. In building construction, that
description normally consists of drawings specifications and usually quantities of the
various items of work, i.e. an „estimate‟ the subordinate courts are, however, not in a
position to make a proper estimate themselves and have to obtain it from contractors. But
in many cases it has been noticed that one contractor only has been asked to submit a
design and quotation for construction. When this is done the element of competition is
absent and there is a grave danger that the design will not only be bad but also that the
price quoted will be too high.
The best method, therefore, is to invite all local contractors to submit designs,
specifications and a lump sum tender. The officer concerned can then judge not only the
designs submitted but also the prices quoted and can accept whichever he thinks best. But
special care should be taken to see that when tenders are invited it is clearly stated that no
payment would be made for the designs submitted whether the tenders are accepted or
rejected.
G.L. No. 53/67-6 dated 14th September, 1937
The Public Works Department furnishes District Judges with lists of contractors of
all classes maintained in that department and tenders should be invited even for annual
repairs from contractors of classes „B‟ and „C‟ also in order to provide greater
competition.
