申请人的城市垃圾处理PPP项目通过公开招标方式选择运营商。在项目的投标阶段,申请人的招标文件中关于垃圾处理付费的标准和计算,与常见的招标文件有所不同,但被申请人对此并没有提出异议,也没有要求澄清。在合同签订后,双方在履行过程中,对于垃圾处理费的付费采取了模糊态度,即被申请人按照自己的理解申请付费,申请人没有认真核对,即行付费。双方也以不正式的方式对合同的付费标准和计算进行了更改,虽与合同约定不一致,但双方继续履行且没有出现纠纷。在某市审计局进行审计时发现,双方没有按照合同约定履行合同,有违法行为,要求纠正,双方由此产生纠纷。双方的纠纷主要表现为两个方面。一是在程序上,双方先通过专家委员会解决,但双方对专家的组成、专家的建议、专家建议的性质认识不一致。在仲裁问题上,双方约定的部分条款含义不清,互相矛盾。二是在实体问题上,双方对招标文件、合同付费计算标准的理解不一致;双方在合同约定与行业标准发生矛盾的解释上也存在重大分歧;在履行中,对合同变更的有效性也存在较大分歧。
<<The applicant’s urban waste treatment PPP project selects operators through public bidding. In the bidding stage of the project,the applicant’s bidding documents on the standards and calculations of garbage disposal fees were different from those in common bidding documents,but the respondent did not raise any objections to this and did not ask for clarification. After the contract was signed,both parties adopted a vague attitude towards the payment of garbage disposal fees during the performance process,that is,the respondent applied for the payment according to his own understanding,and the applicant did not carefully check it,and immediately paid. Both parties also made changes to the contract’s payment standards and calculations in an informal way,but they were inconsistent with the contract,but the two parties continued to perform without disputes. During an audit conducted by the city Audit Bureau it was discovered that the two parties did not perform the contract in accordance with the contract and violated the law and requested correction. This resulted in disputes between the two parties. The disputes between the two parties are mainly in two aspects. In terms of procedures,the two parties first resolve the matter through an expert committee,but the two parties have inconsistent understandings of the composition of experts,their suggestions,and the nature of expert suggestions. On the issue of arbitration,the meanings of some clauses agreed by the two parties are unclear and contradictory. On substantive issues,the two parties have inconsistent understandings of the bidding documents and contract payment calculation standards;on the interpretation of the contradiction between the contract agreement and the industry standard There are also major disagreements;in the implementation,there are also major disagreements on the validity of contract changes.
