On behalf of USAID, Creative Associates invites firms to indicate an interest in submitting offers for the printing and delivery of elections materials.
Offers for the supply of “Election Materials” must include the cost of shipment of the goods by U.S. flag air freight to Somalia.
Contractor must demonstrate capability, based upon technical expertise, management capability, workload capacity and financial resources to implement and manage this contract.
It is Creative’s intent to award a contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
The anticipated implementation period is September 2017.
The Government of Somalia and the U.S. Agency for International Development encourages and welcome in this activity the participation, to the fullest extent possible, of minorities and women both as individuals and as members of contracting or sub-contracting firms. In this respect, it is anticipated that the prime contractor will make every practicable use of such personnel and firms. The participation of small, disadvantaged and women-owned business concerns in this activity as prime contractors or subcontractors are encouraged if they meet the above stated requirements.
Firms making offers to provide the printed “educational materials” must be eligible suppliers in accordance with the requirements set forth in 22 CFR 228 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations.
