This document is an Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract (SF 30 form) issued by the American Embassy New Delhi on June 23, 2026, with an effective date of June 23, 2026. The amendment was issued to notify that the solicitation has been amended to address submitted queries. The contracting officer is Paul M. Nichols, and the document was signed on June 23, 2026.

The accompanying Questions and Answers section addresses six inquiries related to a vehicle procurement by the Embassy. Key clarifications include: (1) the Embassy prefers maximum manufacturer warranty; (2) the Embassy will handle vehicle registration and applicable taxes, with vendors required to provide Tax Invoices if GST is applicable (UIN: 0717USA00138UNS); (3) equivalent brands meeting specification requirements are acceptable; (4) maximum service coverage across India is preferred rather than limitation to NCR service stations; (5) post-delivery technical support will be coordinated directly between the Embassy motorpool and manufacturer authorized service centers without vendor mediation; and (6) the Embassy will accept vehicles with a 4000 mm wheelbase, accommodating current market-available options that may exceed the originally specified wheelbase.
