- Description
- The NATO Support Agency (NSPA) intends to issue an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for an upgrade of the perimeter security measures at Kabul Afghanistan International Airport (KAIA) North. Project implementation includes civil and force protection works. In particular, these works consist of construction of security fences, installation of security cameras including masts, and installation of intruder detection systems, including their integration into the system already deployed at KAIA. In order to bid on this project, a U.S. primary contractor must 1) maintain a professionally active facility (office, factory, laboratory, etc.) in the United States, 2) be pre-approved for participation in NATO International Competitive Bidding (ICB), and 3) be nominated to the bidders list by the U.S. Government. It is anticipated that this project will be incorporated into one contract. It is envisioned that the use of local sub-contractors will be permitted for this project. The U.S. Department of Commerce will be using IFB-2011-1AF23005-0 as its reference for the IFB. BIDDING PROCEDURE Before a U.S. firm can be nominated to the bidders list for this procurement, it must be approved for participation in NATO ICB. Firms are approved for NATO ICB on a facility-by-facility basis. The U.S. Department of Commerce approves facilities that are located within the United States. U.S. firms can download a copy of the U.S. NATO ICB application from the following website: http://www.bis.doc.gov/defenseindustrialbaseprograms/OSIES/NATOprograms/index.htm The NATO ICB application is a one-time application. The application requires supporting documentation in the form of 1) a company resume and 2) an annual report or set of financial documents indicating compilation, review, or audit by an independent CPA.. The application and supporting documentation may be submitted as e-mail attachments. If, when submitting the application, your firm is interested in a specific NATO ICB project, please include the following in the text of your email: - the title and/or solicitation number of the project - the name/phone/FAX/email of the point of contact for the bid documents After approval of your one-time NATO ICB application, the Department of Commerce will then know to follow up by issuing a Declaration of Eligibility (DOE) for that project. A DOE is used to nominate an approved firm to the bidders list for a particular NATO ICB project. IMPORTANT DATES U.S. firms must request a DOE (and, for U.S. firms new to NATO ICB, submit the one-time NATO ICB application): 11 March 2013 Planned tender release: 25 March 2013 Scheduled bid closing: 15 April 2013 Anticipated contract award: 29 April 2013
