Issue the formal Letter of Award (LoA) to the successful bidder upon successful verification of performance security and signing of the contract agreement, marking the commencement of the engagement.

Liquidated Damages (LD) are strictly capped at 0.5% per week of delay, with a maximum ceiling of 10% of the total contract value. These parameters ensure financial discipline, mitigate risk for Gvc, and maintain compliance with standard public procurement norms, ensuring that the selected advisor remains accountable throughout the project lifecycle while protecting the procuring entity against potential service delivery failures or delays.
