However, it is strongly recommended that, before preparing his bid, the bidder visit the indicated site in order to familiarize himself with anything that might affect the services to be performed in any way whatsoever. No claim due to ignorance of the general and local conditions will be recognized by the CSSDM. The bidder may not claim any compensation for travel expenses.

An irrevocable letter of guarantee issued by a financial institution valid for a period of 45 days following the bid opening date. [C1]
