SECTION 3

DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENTS

GENERAL

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is an instrumental leader in the development of policies and programs to combat international narcotics and crime. INL programs support two of the Department of States' strategic goals: (1) to reduce the entry of illegal drugs into the United States; and (2) to minimize the impact of international crime on the United States and its citizens. One of the many ways to effectively meet these goals is to partner with allied governments both directly and indirectly to promote the modernization of and support the enforcement operations of their foreign criminal justice systems and law enforcement agencies.

The INL-H Section of the US Embassy Tegucigalpa, Honduras, is responsible for aiding the host government to develop and implement effective counter narcotics, anticrime, and border control programs. INL-H works closely with US law enforcement agencies to ensure that Honduras has the training and the tools needed to combat illicit drug traffic and transnational organized crime.

INL also works with various Government of Honduras (GOH) institutions including Public Ministry, Secretariat of Presidency, National Banking and Insurance Commission, the Secretariat of Security and its various specialized units, Supreme Court of Justice, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Education, Honduran Immigration Department, and the Honduran Customs.

DESCRIPTION

The INL-H has a requirement for a one-time purchase of telecommunications equipment with its pertinent components in direct support of the Public Ministry’s Special Prosecutions Office of Justice Sector Officials. This initiative is aimed to improve Public Ministry’s performance by supporting host nation law enforcement efforts to hold accountable citizens involved in questionable activities, illicit drug activities, land-based criminals, and littoral-based criminal activities. This support will assist both the United States and Honduran Governments’ efforts towards confronting criminal activity and illegal trafficking expeditiously.

Nor will the contract price be adjusted on account of fluctuations in the currency exchange rates.

2. EFFECTIVE PERIOD OF CONTRACT

This contract shall be effective on the date of the Contracting Officer's signature and shall remain in full force and effect until all IT Equipment is received and accepted by the U.S. Government in accordance with the contract delivery date NLT DD-MM-YEAR (90 calendar days after receipt of award).

3. SUPPLIES AND PRICING

The Contractor shall provide to the U.S. Government the telecommunications equipment in strict compliance with the specifications at the agreed upon firm fixed price.

Additionally, the Contractor shall perform the pre-delivery inspection of the telecommunications equipment and deliver them to the location set forth in Section 9, Place of Delivery, of this SOW. The firm fixed price shall include the telecommunications equipment, pre-delivery inspection, certificates of origin, operator’s manuals, warranty certificates and any other documentation mandated by the destination country.
