SECTION 70

(1) An Individual Consultant shall be a natural person recruited by the Contracting Authority to perform intellectual services or provide non-quantifiable services that do not absolutely require hiring a consultancy. (2) The amount for services rendered by the Individual Consultant may not exceed 50,000,000 (fifty million) francs, unless otherwise specified by the Board of Directors. (3) Individual consultants shall be needed for assignments which do not require teamwork or for which the expert’s skills and qualifications are a major selection criterion. (4) In the case where performance of the service requires a large number of experts such that it may be difficult to coordinate and manage their activities or define their collective responsibility, the Contracting Authority shall hire a consulting firm.
