contracting order or supply of equipment: or
Annex-1
ii. If a Consultant is associated with or affiliated to a contractor or manufacturer,

or
iii. If a Consultant is owned by a contractor or a manufacturing firm with

departments or design offices offering services as Consultant, the Consultant
should include relevant information on such relationships along with a
statement in the Technical Proposal cover letter to the effect that the
Consultant will limit its role to that of a Consultant and disqualify itself and

circumstances of each case. While continuity of consulting services may be
appropriate in particular situations of no conflict exist, a consultant cannot
be recruited to carry out an assignment that, by its nature, will result in
conflict with another assignment of such consultant. For example, a
Consultant engaged to prepare engineering design for an infrastructure
project shall not be recruited to prepare an independent environmental
assessment for the same project; similarly, a consultant assisting a client in
privatization of public assets shall not purchase, nor advise purchasers of,
such assets or a consultant hired to prepare terms of reference for an
assignment shall not be recruited for the assignment in question.
