It is important to note Withholding Tax (WHT) shall be included on a separate line. These services are not eligible for WHT exemption under the EAI retainership agreement. The Subcontractor is responsible for all applicable taxes and fees, as prescribed under the applicable laws for income, compensation, permits, licenses, and other taxes and fees due as required.
Basis of Award
Best Value Determination
EAI will review all proposals and make an award based on the technical and cost evaluation criteria stated above and select the Offeror whose proposal provides the best value to EAI. EAI may also exclude an offer from consideration if it determines that an Offeror is “not responsible”, e.g., that it does not have the management and financial capabilities required to perform the work required.
Evaluation points will not be awarded for cost. Cost will primarily be evaluated for realism and reasonableness. EAI may award a higher priced Offeror if a determination is made that the higher technical evaluation of that Offeror merits the additional cost/price.
EAI may award to an Offeror without discussions. Therefore, the initial offer must contain the Offeror’s best price and technical terms.
Responsibility Determination
EAI will not enter into any type of agreement with an Offeror prior to ensuring the Offeror’s responsibility. When assessing an Offeror’s responsibility, the following factors are taken into consideration:
- Provide evidence of the required firm licenses to operate in Nigeria.
- Have adequate financial resources to finance and perform the work or the ability to obtain financial resources without receiving advance funds from EAI.
- Ability to comply with required or proposed delivery or performance schedules.
- Have a satisfactory past performance record.
- Have a satisfactory record of integrity and legal business ethics.
- Have the necessary organization, experience, legal, and operational controls and technical skills.

General Terms and Conditions
Offerors agree to comply with the general terms and conditions for an award resulting from this RFP. The selected Offeror shall comply with all Representations and Certifications of Compliance listed in Attachment E.
Procurement Ethics
Neither payment nor preference shall be made by either the Offeror, or by any EAI staff, to affect the results of the award. EAI treats all reports of possible fraud/abuse very seriously. Acts of fraud or corruption will not be tolerated, and EAI employees and/or subcontractors/grantees/vendors who engage in such activities will face serious consequences. Any such practice constitutes an unethical, illegal, and corrupt practice and either the Offeror or the EAI staff may report violations by submitting an offer. Offerors certify that they have not/will not attempt to bribe or make any payments to EAI employees in return for preference, nor have any payments with terrorists, or groups supporting terrorists, been attempted. Any such practice constitutes an unethical, illegal, and corrupt practice and either the Offeror or the EAI staff may report violations as follows:
The anonymous reporting services are available 24-hours a day, seven days a week and include the following options:
- Independently report issues via the internet at our Equal Access International Compliance Portal by going to www.convercent.com/report and finding our organization in the “Report an incident” box.

EAI ensures anonymity and an unbiased, serious review and treatment of the information provided. Such practice may result in the cancellation of the procurement and disqualification of the Offeror’s participation in this, and future, procurements. Violators will be reported to the US Government, and as a result, may be reported to the U.S. Department of Justice to be included in a Restricted Parties list, preventing them from participating in future U.S. Government business.
Offerors must provide full, accurate and complete information in response to this solicitation. The penalty for materially false responses is prescribed in Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
In addition, EAI takes the payment of State Departments funds to pay terrorists, or groups supporting terrorists, or other parties in exchange for protection very seriously. Should the terrorist, groups, or other parties attempt to extort/demand payment from your organization you are asked to immediately report the incident to EAI’s Ethics and Compliance Anonymous Hotline at the contacts described in this clause.
By submitting an offer, Offerors certify that they have not/will not attempt to bribe or make any payments to EAI employees in return for preference, nor have any payments with terrorists, or groups supporting terrorists, been attempted.
