Request for quotation (RFQ) ICT Equipment

We kindly request you to submit your quotation for procurement of ICT equipment, as detailed in Annex 1 of this RFQ. When preparing your quotation, please be guided by the form attached hereto as Annex 2.

ICT Equipment offered shall be reviewed based on completeness and compliance of the quotation with the minimum specifications described above and any other annexes providing details of ADPC requirements.

The quotation that complies with all of the specifications, requirements and offers the lowest price, as well as all other evaluation criteria indicated, shall be selected. Any offer that does not meet the requirements shall be rejected.

Any discrepancy between the unit price and the total price (obtained by multiplying the unit price and quantity) shall be re-computed by ADPC. The unit price shall prevail and the total price shall be corrected. If the Vendor does not accept the final price based on ADPC’s re-computation and correction of errors, its quotation will be rejected.

At any time during the validity of the quotation, no price variation due to escalation, inflation, fluctuation in exchange rates, or any other market factors shall be accepted by ADPC after it has received the quotation. At the time of award of Contract, ADPC reserves the right to vary (increase or decrease) the quantity of services and/or equipment, by up to a maximum twenty-five per cent (25%) of the total offer, without any change in the unit price or other terms and conditions.

Any Contract that will be issued as a result of this RFQ shall be subject to the General Terms and Conditions attached hereto. The mere act of submission of a quotation implies that the Vendor accepts without question the General Terms and Conditions of ADPC herein attached as Annex 3.

ADPC is not bound to accept any quotation, nor award a Contract, nor be responsible for any costs associated with a Vendor’s preparation and submission of a quotation, regardless of the outcome or the manner of conducting the selection process.

Please be advised that ADPC’s vendor protest procedure is intended to afford an opportunity to appeal for persons or firms not awarded a Contractor contract in a competitive procurement process. In the event that you believe you have not been fairly treated.

ADPC encourages every prospective Vendor to avoid and prevent conflicts of interest, by disclosing to ADPC if you, or any of your affiliates or personnel, were involved in the preparation of the requirements, design, specifications, cost estimates, and other information used in this RFQ.
