Overview
Expressions of Interest (EOI) are invited from organizations wishing to be pre-registered to tender for the above-mentioned services. This document invites Expressions of Interest (EOI) from suitably experienced, competent and skilled Offerors.
Note that this is a brief overview of the proposed scope of work. More details will be included in the solicitation documents provided to organizations that are invited to submit tenders as a result of this EOI process.
Background
The purpose of the Northeast Connection project is to strengthen the resilience of communities vulnerable to violent extremist infiltration and conflict. By targeting communities in Adamawa, Yobe, and Borno states not yet under the control of violent extremist organizations (VEOs), this project will seize the opportunity to mitigate the grievances that make communities vulnerable to violent extremism, while building social cohesion within and across communities in northeast Nigeria. In addition to helping northeastern Nigerians create a stronger foundation against the violent extremist and conflict threats, the activity is designed to develop local capacity to respond to emerging threats. Northeast Connection includes a rigorous analytical component to develop a better, shared understanding of local and sub-regional VEO and conflict risks, dynamics, and windows of opportunity. Leading the coordination of implementing partners on such CVE initiatives will also be a key feature of the project.
This EOI is being conducted in a “full and open” manner and is open to all capable firms that are registered to work in Nigeria; large or small, commercial (for profit) firms or non-profit organizations are welcome to apply. The EOI will identify firms with the required capacity for the supply of multiple product lines. In the EOI response, firms will be required to indicate the specific supply they want to be considered for. Offerors will be required to submit relevant documentation to support their capacity in one or both categories, as outlined in Section 1.6.
Firms determined to be qualified will be notified and invited to submit EOIs under subsequent Requests for Proposals (RFPs) on a limited competition basis.
Expression of interest will be reviewed and selected based on applicant’s provision of genuine past performance in middle belt Nigeria, financial capacity and an evidence of full registration with CAC.
Expression of Interest should be sent to the following email address procurement@connection-nigeria.com by May 17, 2021. Shortlisted companies will receive invitations to respond to Request for Quotations subsequently.
