Local Presence and Immediate Response Requirement: Offerors must demonstrate the capability to provide immediate on-site technical support and maintenance services in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Contractors based in the United States, or any other location, without a proven address in Rio de Janeiro and ability to respond promptly and provide in-person service in Rio de Janeiro will not be considered responsive to this requirement. Quotations must include evidence of local presence, service infrastructure, or partnership arrangements that ensure rapid response times to service calls within the Rio de Janeiro metropolitan area.

The Consulate plans to award a Contract. You are encouraged to make your quotation competitive. You are also cautioned against any collusion with other potential offerors with regard to price quotations to be submitted. The RFQ does not commit the American Consulate to make any award.
