This procurement will be conducted under Full and Open Competition�procedures, pursuant to Part 15 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (48 CFR Chapter 1).� Please refer to Section L for information regarding proposal requirements.

Section L of the RFP sets forth all instructions for the preparation and submission of required�proposal contents, including critical dates/times for the submission of questions, and the proposal�submission closing date and time. Section M states the criteria by which proposals will be�evaluated. The competition will utilize a Highest Technical Rated with Fair and Reasonable Price and Realistic Cost (HTR) process, not a tradeoff process. In this process, USAID is concerned�with getting the best technical solution that has a fair and reasonable price and realistic cost. There�will not be a tradeoff to justify paying a premium for a higher technical rated proposal.� Offerors must carefully review Sections L and M of this RFP for details of this process. Section L�of the RFP sets forth all instructions for the preparation and submission of required proposal�contents, including critical dates/times for the submission of questions, and the proposal�submission closing date and time.

Award of a Contract�under this RFP is subject to availability of funds and other internal USAID approvals. USAID expects that Offerors will have equal access to all local organizations needed to implement�this contract and strongly discourages exclusivity agreements with local organizations.This RFP can be viewed and downloaded from www.sam.gov.
