REPAIR
THROUGH TRADE
(SOP)
1. Repair
to Vehicles and equipment in BRO are to be carried out in field Wksp and Base
Wksps. However provision exists for repairs to equipment through trade under
certain circumstances where repairs to eqpt cannot be carried out either in Fd
Wksp or Base Wksps or for expeditious availability of eqpt after repairs as
laid down in BR Regulation Para 922.
2. The
financial powers for repair through trade in BRR were revised under Govt of India, Ministry of Defence (BR Wing) letterNo: MoD (BR) F .No. 04/696/2015/D&P (BR-I) dated 11 Aug 2017 (latest) is
as per Para 4 below.
3. The
amount indicated above represents the value of any one repair order placed for
any one type of Veh/ Eqpt including the cost of spares/stores, if any, used by
the contractor.
4. Due
to induction of Hi-Tech Vehs/ Eqpt in BRO and escalation in cost of repairs,
the above financial powers were not found adequate. As such, financial powers
for repairs through trade have now been enhanced vide Govt of India, letter No:
F.No BRDB/08/81/2006/BEA dt 50 Nov 2014. (& Govt
of India, Ministry of Defence (BR Wing) letter No: MoD (BR)
F.No.04/696/2015/D&P (BR-I) dated 11 May 2018. (latest)) The revised financial powers are as under:-
DGBR

Beyond Rs 5 Lakh
|
With concurrence of IFA
(BR)
|
ADGBR
|
Beyond Rs 2 Lakh and up
to Rs 5 Lakh
|
With concurrence of

(Note: In order to expedite repair, enhance
availability of V/E/Ps and avoid to and fro movement of case files, any case
beyond financial power of CE will be processed with requisite Quotations, CST,
draft repair order and connected documents in order to facilitate the CFA to
sanction the RTT in one go itself. Authy: HQ
DGBR Letter No 56726/RC/DGBR/102/E4 Rep dated 28 Feb 2019.)
5. Since
financial powers have now been enhanced considerably, there is a need to ensure
that these powers are used discretely and judiciously to strike an optimum
balance between using maximum facilities of Fd/ Base Wksps and resorting to
repairs through trade only where it is unavoidable to ensure high availability
of Eqpt for works. The Procedure laid down in BR Regulations and instructions
issued from time to time must be strictly followed and documents correctly
maintained. This will not only help in minimizing audit objections, avoid
criticism from inspecting authorities but also help in eliminating unnecessary
correspondence at all levels to settle audit objection/ observations.
6. In
order to obviate misuse of financial powers and avoid audit objection, the
following guidelines be strictly followed:-
a)
|
Repair orders will not be split to keep
the transaction with in the financial powers of lower CFA to avoid sanction
of higher CFA where required.
|
|
b)
|
Projects will book the repair
expenditure to CSU and Base Wksps will book repair expenditure against ground
est. In this connection also refer this HQ letter No. 54101/Policy/DGBR/28/E4 lnv P&P dt 13 Mar
1997.(copy attached below)
|
|
c)

(ii)

CEs (P)
have to ensure judicious expenditure of delegated fin power duly analysing
the fund availability of V/E/Ps. HQ CE (P) will submit quarterly report on
expenditure incurred on repairs through trade to TA Dte (E4 Repair) this HQ
and HQ ADGBR with a copy to E5 Budget. Reports for the quarter ending Jun, Sep,
Dec and Mar should reach this HQ by 21 of next month.
|
|
d)
|
Under no circumstances, spares will be
provided separately to the repair agency for local repairs. All required
spares have to be included in the repair contract.
|
|
e)
|
Unserviceable spares retrieved from the assy under repair will be
fully accounted for by taking these on charge by means of CRV.
|
|
f)
|
The delegated financial powers will be
exercised in consolation with the concerned PCDA (BR)/IFA (BR) staff i.e
JCDA/DCDA/ACDA/ Sr AO/AO as applicable through their financial concurrence.
|
7. Provision/
procedures laid down in BR regulations on the subject will be strictly
followed. The salient points are as under:-

guidelines given in BR Regulations are strictly followed. CEs (P) should ensure
that financial powers are judiciously utilized by CFA in the Projects in the
overall interest of the state.
