QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:

No. Questions Answers

1. We have read in the FBO that the deadline for this solicitation is now December 6 2020. More important, we seek to confirm whether the restriction still holds for ineligibility of non-local firm to pursue this opportunity.

It is not limited to South

Sudanese firms.

2. As per the solicitation files, the offeror shall demonstrate who has ongoing operation in South Sudan. Can an offeror without prior project experience in South Sudan bid on this project and deemed acceptable?

No.

3. Please confirm this procurement is not restricted to local organizations.

Correct.

4. Demonstrated South Sudan Operations - Prime contractor does not have current operations in South Sudan and don’t have ongoing South Sudan operations for at least one year (at a minimum) prior to the date of submission of the Phase One proposal. But the prime contractor is capable of quickly mobilizing and beginning work as we have a South Sudan subcontractor with required labor force, equipment, license and permits. - is this acceptable?

Please see question 2.

5. Will subcontracting to a well-established local South Sudanese company that has been in operations for more than 1 year help meet a US Prime offerors requirement of "Demonstrated

Operations in South Sudan"?

No.

6. This RFP was posted as a pre-solicitation, should we be expecting another actual Solicitation RFP before the response date of December 6th?

No. This is the solicitation.
