Project Title: Design, Fabrication, and Installation of Sally Port Shade Structures Location: Phora Compound – Sally Port Common Access Control (CAC) Gates (2 Sites), Kathmandu, Nepal Prepared For: Regional Security Office (RSO), Kathmandu, Nepal Date: July 31, 2026

1. PROJECT OVERVIEW

The U.S. Embassy General Services Office (GSO), on behalf of the Local Guard Force (LGF), requires a qualified contractor to provide turnkey design and build services for metallic shade cover structures at two (2) Sally Port CAC gate locations within the Phora Compound. The objective from a Facility Management perspective is to introduce assets that are highly durable, weather-resistant, and low-maintenance, improving working conditions for security personnel without introducing operational vulnerabilities or compromising structural safety.

2. CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITY & COST COVERAGE

This is a comprehensive design-build project. The contractor is solely responsible for ensuring that all costs related to the design and build phases—including all labor, materials, equipment, tools, transportation, field supervision, and incidentals—shall be fully covered and borne by the contractor.

3. PROJECT TIMELINE & STRICT TRACKING MILESTONES

To ensure seamless asset integration and site coordination, the project schedule is tightly controlled through consecutive milestone tracking deadlines.

3.1 Milestone 1: Fabrication Track (1 Month)

• Execution Window: 1 Months

• Requirements: Upon receiving written design approval from the COR, the contractor shall procure all primary structural steel or aluminum framing, roofing materials, and industrial components. Off-site steel preparation, component shaping, and primary raw material processing must be fully completed within this one-month window to minimize heavy material staging inside the compound.

3.2 Milestone 2: Installation & Finishing Track (15 Days)

• Execution Window: 15 days

• Requirements: All processed materials must be mobilized to the Phora Compound. The contractor has a strict 15-day window to complete all on-site foundations, structural welding, anchoring, assembly, multi-coat painting, site cleanup, and final handover. Final COR walkthrough, asset acceptance, and project sign-off must occur on or before Day 53.

4. DETAILED SAFETY & WORK PERMIT REQUIREMENTS

The contractor shall maintain a safe worksite at all times. From a Facility Management perspective, safety compliance is strict; any non-compliance or unpermitted hazardous operation will result in an immediate work stoppage to protect compound personnel and facility assets.

4.1 Framework and Safety Compliance
