The U.S. Embassy Kathmandu, under the Department of State, is soliciting a commercial platform to promote Nepal as a high-value wellness tourism destination and advance U.S. economic interests through a comprehensive, results-driven initiative. The contract requires the vendor to design, manage, and execute a flagship multi-day event in Kathmandu for 150 to 250 participants, featuring high-level keynote sessions, B2B matchmaking, investment pitches, and demonstrations of wellness services such as yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda. The platform must engage U.S. private sector participants and investors from sectors including travel and hospitality, wellness consumer brands, health technologies, and fitness equipment. The project spans one year with an option to extend up to six months, with a defined timeline: mobilization in July 2026, stakeholder engagement in August–September, event execution in October–November, and follow-up through December. The contractor must establish a permanent operational presence in Nepal within 30 days of award, include a project manager fluent in English as a primary liaison, and comply with all U.S. Embassy branding and visibility requirements. The work is delivered under a firm fixed-price structure, with all pricing required in Nepalese Rupees (NPR) and Value Added Tax (VAT) listed as a separate item on invoices. Payment is processed by the Financial Management Officer at the American Embassy Kathmandu, following strict invoicing standards aligned with FAR 32.905(e). The solicitation mandates strict compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, including 52.212-4 and 52.212-5 for commercial item terms, 52.244-6 for subcontracting, and 52.228-3 and 52.228-4 mandating Defense Base Act and overseas worker compensation insurance. The contractor must also adhere to clauses on whistleblower rights, electronic surveillance safeguards, Kaspersky Lab prohibitions, unmanned aircraft restrictions, and payment acceleration for small business subcontractors. Offerors must be registered in SAM.gov with a valid Unique Entity Identifier, demonstrate five years of relevant experience in commercial event design, trade promotion, or investment facilitation, and provide proof of financial capacity and organizational capability. Proposals are evaluated using pass/fail criteria focused on experience, engagement ability, market knowledge, financial resources, integrity, and legal eligibility, with award going to the lowest-priced, acceptable, and responsible offer
