The U.S. Embassy in Mexico City has issued a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for gym membership services, which includes access to multiple gyms and associated maintenance fees. Interested contractors are invited to submit their quotations by October 2, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. Central Time. The RFQ comprises a Standard Form SF-18, a statement of work, and technical qualifications, with specific late quotation rules and evaluation methods outlined. Implicit in the RFQ is the expectation of competitive pricing and a caution against contact with other embassy personnel or collusion among bidders, as this may lead to disqualification or cancellation of the solicitation. Questions regarding the RFQ must be directed to Pamela Amador by September 25, 2024. The embassy retains the right to cancel the RFQ or any part of it without obligation to award any contracts. This RFQ reflects the embassy's attempt to procure services that meet its operational needs while adhering to established regulations and practices in government contracting.

The contractor must ensure multiple gym access within specified neighborhoods in Mexico City, offering a comprehensive range of fitness facilities and services including gym equipment, group classes, swimming pools, personal training, spa facilities, childcare, and nutrition counseling. Key specifications include providing services with flexible access times and a user-friendly app for tracking workouts. Quotations must be submitted by October 7, 2024, and should comply with federal acquisition regulations, including representations and certifications, and demonstrate past performance and business reliability.

This RFQ represents an opportunity for companies, particularly small businesses, to engage in government contracting while supporting the health and wellness of embassy staff.
