Description
Joint Force Command Headquarters Brunssum (JFC Brunssum) intends to issue an Invitation for International Bidding (IFIB) for the provision of printing services for the issues of Sada-e Azadi Magazine. The magazine is a production of the Combined Joint Psychological Operations Task Force (CJPOTF) for ISAF in Afghanistan. The printing house shall print and deliver the designated number of magazines per issue within 3 days (72 hours) of the day that the printing house receives the CD from CJPOTF. The number of magazines per issue is estimated at 60,000 - 70,000. The magazine publishes 26 issues per year. Delivery shall be to a location in Afghanistan to be specified by the CJPOTF Distribution Manager in coordination with the Print Chief. The bidders will be asked to return a sealed bid with two envelopes (technical and price proposal). The reference for the Invitation for the IFIB is IFIB-ACO-BRU-12-25 and all correspondence in relation to this procurement shall refer to this reference. Partial bidding is not authorized. The classification of the IFIB will be NATO Unclassified. BIDDING PROCEDURE Before a firm can be nominated to the bidders list for this ICB procurement, it must be approved for participation in NATO ICB. Firms are approved for NATO ICB on a facility-by-facility basis. Only facilities located in NATO member nations may participate in NATO ICB. The U.S. Department of Commerce approves facilities that are located within the United States. U.S. firms will find a copy of the U.S. NATO ICB application at the following website: http://www.bis.doc.gov/defenseindustrialbaseprograms/OSIES/NATOprograms/index.htm The NATO ICB application is a one-time application. The application requires supporting documentation in the form of 1) a company resume and 2) an annual report or set of financial documents indicating compilation, review, or audit by an independent CPA. The application and supporting documentation may be submitted as e-mail attachments. If, when submitting the application, your firm is interested in a specific NATO ICB project, please include the following in the text of your email: - the title and/or solicitation number of the project - the name/phone/FAX/email of the point of contact for the bid documents Upon approval of your one-time NATO ICB application, the U.S. Department of Commerce will then know to follow up by issuing a Declaration of Eligibility (DOE) for that project. A DOE is used to nominate an approved firm to the bidders list for a particular NATO ICB project. IMPORTANT DEADLINES U.S. firms should request that the Department of Commerce issue a DOE (and, for firms new to NATO ICB, submit to the Department of Commerce a completed one-time NATO ICB application) by: 25 September 2012 Please note that under the stipulations of Bi-SC procurement Directive 60-70, the contracting entity will continue to accept nominations to the bidders list until the bid closing date. Estimated IFIB issue date: 29 September 2012 Estimated bid closing date: 10 November 2012
