Dear Sir/Madam,
 
We kindly request you to submit your Proposal for Provision of Services for Sludge Management Study for Zahle’s Wastewater Treatment Facility.

Please be guided by the form attached hereto as Annex 2, in preparing your Proposal.  

Proposals must be submitted on or before the deadline indicated by UNDP in the eTendering system. Bids must be submitted in the online eTendering system in the following link: https://etendering.partneragencies.org using your username and password. If you have not registered in the system before, you can register now by logging in using 
username: event.guest
password: why2change
and follow the registration steps as specified in the system user guide.

Your Proposal must be expressed in the English language, and valid for a minimum period of 90 days

In the course of preparing and submitting your Proposal, it shall remain your responsibility to ensure that it submitted into the system by the deadline. The system will automatically block and not accept any bid after the deadline. Kindly ensure that supporting documents required are signed and in the .pdf format, and free from any virus or corrupted files.
    
The Financial Proposal and the Technical Proposal files MUST BE COMPLETELY SEPARATE and uploaded separately in the system and clearly named as either “TECHNICAL PROPOSAL” or “FINANCIAL PROPOSAL”, as appropriate. Each document shall include the Proposer’s name and address. The file with the “FINANCIAL PROPOSAL” must be encrypted with a password so that it cannot be opened nor viewed until the Proposal has been found to pass the technical evaluation stage. Once a Proposal has been found to be responsive by passing the technical evaluation stage, UNDP shall request the Proposer to submit the password to open the Financial Proposal. The Proposer shall assume the responsibility for not encrypting the financial proposal.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The amount of Financial Offer MUST not be mentioned anywhere in the submitted documents or eTedendring system. The Financial Proposal MUST be password protected and the password will be requested later as per the RFP requirements. Failure in compliance with the mentioned conditions shall result in rejection of the offer.

UNDP looks forward to receiving your Proposal and thank you in advance for your interest in UNDP procurement opportunities.

Yours sincerely,
Procurement Unit
