3.4. Guidance of applying the cost quota to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of investment projects

3.4.1. Cost to verify effectiveness and feasibility of investment projects by the quota of percentage (%) (Quota published in Table 14 of this Decision) and multiplied by the construction cost and equipment costs (no value added tax) in the approved total investment.

3.4.2. In case where verification is required only for the total investment, the cost quota for the verification of total investment determined is 40% of the cost of verifying the effectiveness and feasibility of the corresponding project (quota published in table 14 of this Decision).

3.5. Guidance for applying cost quota for verification of technical design for projects with a 3 step design requirements, verification of working drawings for buildings that requires 1 step and 2 step designs

3.5.1. Cost for verifying technical design, for buildings with a 3 step design, verifying working drawing design for buildings with 1 step and 2 step design is determined by the percentage (%) quota (quota published in table 15 of this Decision) and multiplied by the construction cost (without value added tax) within the approved building estimate. Where design work is done according to the bidding package, design verification cost is determined by the quota of percentage (%) (Quota published in table 15 of this Decision) and multiplied by cost for construction without value added tax within the approved package estimates and are adjusted with the coefficient K = 0.9.

3.5.2. Cost for verification of working drawing design for buildings with a 3 step design is determined by 40% of the cost for verifying technical design. Cost for verification technological design (if any) is determined by establishing an estimate.

Unit: Percentage (%)

Notes:

- The cost for verification of building design using typical design or sample design issued by competent agencies is adjusted with coefficient k = 0.36 for second buildings or later.

- Cost for verification of leveling work design is calculated by 40% of the cost quota for verifying the design of grade IV traffic building.

- Cost for verification of a design is determined by the minimum quota but not less than 2,000,000 VND.

3.6. Guidelines for applying cost quota of the verification of the estimate

3.6.1. Cost for verifying an estimate is determined by the quota of percentage (%) (Quota published in table 16 of this Decision) and multiplied by the construction cost (excluding value added tax) in the estimate for the approved building or bidding package estimate.
