Local Area Network Rehabilitation

The US Agency for International Development (USAID) Jordan Mission is soliciting sealed bids for a Local Area Network Rehabilitation project through the Water Authority of Jordan. The opportunity seeks service solutions providers with expertise in design, supply, implementation, and training of network infrastructure. Bidders must comply with USAID geographical code #937, which limits participation to companies from the United States, recipient country, and developing countries, excluding prohibited sources. Interested vendors must purchase bid documents for 250 Jordanian Dinars from WAJ's Tenders Department in Amman, with questions due by January 15, 2025, via email to Mutasem_AlDerbashi@mwi.gov.jo. Formal bid submissions are required by February 10, 2025, at 12:00 PM, and must include a mandatory bid security of 20,000 JOD. Technical and financial proposals must be submitted in separate envelopes, with technical proposals evaluated first to determine qualified bidders.

The solicitation is not designated with a specific set-aside classification and will be advertised in three local newspapers: Al-Rai, Al-Dustour, and Jordan Times. The project is located in Amman, Jordan, and falls under the NAICS category of Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction (237110). Vendors must demonstrate company registration and professional licensing to be considered eligible. While specific award values are not detailed in the documents, the bid security requirement of 20,000 JOD suggests a substantial project scope. The rehabilitation project encompasses both passive and active network infrastructure, indicating a comprehensive technology upgrade for the Water Authority of Jordan's local area network. Prospective bidders will need to prepare comprehensive technical proposals demonstrating their capability to design, implement, and provide training for the network rehabilitation initiative.
