The buildings are also required to comply with EDGE Advanced green building certification standards.The project will be executed under a Design and Build Lump Sum Contract system and is scheduled for completion in 24 months, followed by a defect liability period of 36 months.AGICL has specified that only Special Class Civil Contractors registered with the Government of Andhra Pradesh are eligible to participate in the tender process.Apart from engineering and construction requirements, the project includes detailed environmental and social compliance provisions.
