Service Contracts

A service contract is a contract between a service provider and the contracting authority covering all intellectual and non-intellectual services other than those covered by supply contracts and works contracts. Service contracts are meant for studies, technical assistance and are also used for audits or communication services.

Service contracts include preparation of studies for the identification and preparation of projects, feasibility studies, economic and market analysis, technical studies and audits.

A technical assistance contract is a service contract where the contractor is called on to play an advisory role, to manage or supervise a project, or to provide the expertise specified in the contract.
