A pre-quotation conference will be held on May 12, 2025, and submissions are due by May 19, 2025. Quotations must be submitted electronically and include several required documents, such as the SF-1449 form, pricing information, and representations and certifications.

The procurement follows a Best Value basis as per Federal Acquisition Regulations, emphasizing quality, warranty, safety, and security measures throughout the process. The embassy is committed to ensuring compliance with local regulations, and successful contractors will need to adhere to strict quality and performance standards throughout the contract duration.
