PROPOSAL SUBMISSION PLACE: Mr. Radomir Naumov, Minister, Ministry of Energy and Mining, Republic of Serbia, Nemanjina 22-26, Belgrade, Serbia and Montenegro, Phone: +381-11-33-46-755, Fax: +381-11-36-16-603 The Grantee invites submission of qualifications and proposal data (collectively referred to as the "Proposal") from interested U.S. firms that are qualified on the basis of experience and capability to deliver a feasibility study on a proposed co-generation district heating plant in Belgrade. This project will involve the expanding of power generation capacity and the heat generation capacity of the Belgrade District Heating System. The Feasibility Study will assess the potential development of a co-generation heat and power plant for the Belgrade System. In order to upgrade their capacity and utilize more efficient cogeneration of heat and power, the Belgrade District Heating Company is planning to build a co-generation plant. This plant will allow the company to add a significant number of Belgrade apartments to the district-heating network. The project is conceived as a medium- to large-sized combined heat and power plant (200 MW to 600 MW electrical production), and is intended to be an integral part of the Belgrade District Heating System. The objective of the Feasibility Study is to perform technical, environmental, economic and financial assessments of the project. The U.S. firm selected will be paid in U.S. dollars from a $757,245 grant to the Grantee from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA). The total amount of the grant includes both Phase I and Phase II of the Feasibility Study. A detailed Request for Proposals (RFP), which includes requirements for the Proposal, the Terms of Reference, and a background report are available from USTDA, at 1000 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 1600, Arlington, VA 22209-3901. Requests for the RFP should be faxed to the IRC, USTDA at 703-875-4009. In the fax, please include your firm?s name, contact person, address, and telephone number. Some firms have found that RFP materials sent by U.S. mail do not reach them in time for preparation of an adequate response. Firms that want USTDA to use an overnight delivery service should include the name of the delivery service and your firm's account number in the request for the RFP. Firms that want to send a courier to USTDA to retrieve the RFP should allow one hour after faxing the request to USTDA before scheduling a pick-up. Please note that no telephone requests for the RFP will be honored. Please check your internal fax verification receipt. Because of the large number of RFP requests, USTDA cannot respond to requests for fax verification. Requests for RFPs received before 4:00 PM will be mailed the same day. Requests received after 4:00 PM will be mailed the following day. Please check with your courier and/or mail room before calling USTDA. Only U.S. firms and individuals may bid on this USTDA financed activity. Interested firms, their subcontractors and employees of all participants must qualify under USTDA's nationality requirements as of the due date for submission of qualifications and proposals and, if selected to carry out the USTDA-financed activity, must continue to meet such requirements throughout the duration of the USTDA-financed activity. All goods and services to be provided by the selected firm shall have their nationality, source and origin in the U.S. or host country. The U.S. firm may use subcontractors from the host country for up to 20 percent of the USTDA grant amount. Details of USTDA's nationality requirements and mandatory contract clauses are also included in the RFP. Interested U.S. firms should submit their Proposal in English directly to the Grantee by 4:00 PM, June 25, 2004 at the above address. Evaluation criteria for the Proposal are included in the RFP. Price will not be a factor in contractor selection, and therefore, cost proposals should NOT be submitted. The Grantee reserves the right to reject any and/or all Proposals. The Grantee also reserves the right to contract with the selected firm for subsequent work related to the project. The Grantee is not bound to pay for any costs associated with the preparation and submission of Proposals.
