Determination of general costs in electric transmission line projects in Vietnam
Determination of general costs in electric transmission line projects in Vietnam
In Sub-item 1.2.2, Item 1.2, Sub-section 1, Section II, Appendix III, issued according to Circular 11/2021/TT-BXD, there are regulations on determining general costs in electric transmission line projects as follows:
1.2.2. Determining General Costs Based on Labor Costs
General costs are determined by the percentage (%) of labor costs in the direct costs of construction and installation according to the guidelines in Table 3.2 of this Appendix.
Table 3.2: STANDARD RATE OF GENERAL COSTS CALCULATED BASED ON LABOR COSTS
Unit: %
| No. | Description | Labor costs in direct cost estimates for construction and installation (billion VND) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ≤ 15 | ≤ 50 | ≤ 100 | ≤ 100 | ||
| [1] | [2] | [3] | [4] | [5] | [6] |
| 1 | Road maintenance, railway, and maritime signaling systems | 66 | 63 | 60 | 56 |
| 2 | Agricultural and rural development projects entirely manually executed | 51 | 48 | 45 | 42 |
| 3 | Installation of technological equipment in construction projects; installation of electric transmission lines and transformer stations; testing and calibration of power lines and transformer stations; testing of materials, components, and construction structures | 65 | 62 | 59 | 55 |
Temporary housing and construction management costs in Vietnam
In Sub-section 2, Section II, Appendix III, issued according to Circular 11/2021/TT-BXD, there are regulations on temporary housing and construction management costs as follows:
Temporary housing and construction management costs are determined by a percentage (%) multiplied by direct costs. The standard percentage (%) of temporary housing and construction management costs is determined based on pre-tax construction costs within the approved total investment level, as guided in Table 3.3 of this Appendix.
Table 3.3: STANDARD RATE OF TEMPORARY HOUSING AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT COSTS
Unit: %
| No. | Type of Project | Pre-tax construction costs within the approved total investment level (billion VND) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ≤ 15 | ≤ 100 | ≤ 500 | ≤ 1000 | >1000 | |||
| [1] | [2] | [3] | [4] | [5] | [6] | [7] | |
| 1 | Line construction projects | 2.2 | 2.0 | 1.9 | 1.8 | 1.7 | |
| 2 | Other construction projects | 1.1 | 1.0 | 0.95 | 0.9 | 0.85 | |
For other special cases (such as large-scale, complex projects, offshore and island projects, projects using ODA funds with international bidding), if the temporary housing and construction management costs calculated as a percentage (%) of Table 3.3 are not appropriate, the investor will organize and approve the temporary housing and construction management cost plan based on actual conditions.
The temporary housing and construction management cost estimate is determined according to the construction design guidelines provided in Appendix III of this Circular (excluding temporary housing and construction management costs). The standard percentage rate for general costs, costs for some works with undetermined quantities from design, and pre-tax calculated income apply as for civil construction projects.
