When preparing the financial bid, you must adhere to the requirements of the specification of inputs as set out in the Terms of Reference. The tenders received will be subject to a technical assessment based on the CV and the concept in accordance with the annexed technical assessment grid. Only tenders that score at least 500 points in the technical assessment will be accepted for the financial evaluation. Technical bids that fail to reach this cut-off point will be regarded as unsuitable.
The technical bid is weighted at 70% and the financial bid at 30%.
If a consortium is to be formed for the service offered, please submit the consortial declaration.
Planned schedule for the rest of the procurement procedure:
| Contract award and information about the result of the evaluation | End of October 2026 |
|---|---|
| End of binding period (i.e. tenders no longer legally binding) | 27.11.2026 |
| Commencement of service delivery | End of October / Beginning of November 2026 |
Sustainability We have developed a Guide for Practicing Corporate Sustainability (GPS) so that our contractors can learn about corporate sustainability at GIZ. We invite you to go through GPS and obtain a participation certificate.
Participation in GPS does not influence the award decision in this procedure. However, we would very much welcome your taking part in GPS: https://gps.giz.de/en/.
Yours sincerely,
Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH
