Question asked through mail: a) As attached to this email, the specification of Breakfast in the documents is wrongly set. So Shall I just quote the price of Breakfast or make changes in the specifications too? Response: Kindly just quote the price of breakfast as per the menu of full board package. b) Every page of the documents has been stamped with the Sami logo. So, does it imply that we also proceed to put the official stamp with the logo on every page or only just put the stamp and signature where it has been mentioned? Response: on mentioned places and mandatory documents. c) Similarly, Sample formats and agreements are there just for the references right??? We don't have to fill any of them, do we? So could we exclude those 3 pages while sending the bid? Response: Yes, these are just for reference for now, you can exclude while sending the sealed bid. d) I am still confused with this mandatory document (Pre-contract assurance: Physical infrastructure verification as per Hotel classification certificate (optional) and proposal of physical infrastructure).

Or only stapling is advisable? Response: You can go ahead according to your comfort.
