A nominal non-refundable tender document fee applies to cover administrative processing. To safeguard Apgencos operational timelines, a stringent Liquidated Damages (LD) clause is embedded, levying 0.5 percent of the contract price per week of delay, capped at a maximum of 10 percent of the total contract value, ensuring strict adherence to delivery schedules.
