RFQ no. PR16045169 - 4WD SUV for Operational Fleet Support

The U.S. Embassy Muscat, under the Department of State, is soliciting a brand-new 4WD SUV for operational fleet support through a firm-fixed-price contract identified as PR16045169, with a response deadline of July 7, 2026. The vehicle must be a left-hand drive, seven-passenger model equipped with a 2.3L turbocharged petrol engine and a 10-speed automatic transmission, fully compliant with GCC market specifications and capable of delivery to Muscat, Oman. The solicitation is unrestricted, meaning no socioeconomic set-asides apply, and offerors are required to be registered in SAM.gov with a valid Unique Entity Identifier and appropriate CAGE or NCAGE code. All proposals must meet mandatory technical acceptability criteria on a pass/fail basis, including demonstration of an authorized local service center in Oman, provision of a minimum five-year comprehensive warranty covering parts and labor, and the availability of 24/7 on-road emergency service with a designated point of contact. Additionally, vendors must provide evidence of relevant past performance in supplying comparable vehicles and submit all representations and certifications under FAR 52.240-90, including compliance with security prohibitions on covered telecommunications equipment, non-involvement in sanctioned activities related to Iran or Sudan, and adherence to the Boycott of Israel regulations. Invoices must be submitted electronically to MuscatInvoices@state.gov in English, itemizing VAT separately, and payments will be made in Omani Rial to the Financial Management Office in Shatti Al Qurum, Oman. Funding is available only through September 30 of the current fiscal year, with any obligation beyond that date contingent upon future appropriations. No unit pricing or total contract value is provided in the solicitation, as the award will be based solely on lowest price among technically acceptable offers, and all required documentation—including SF-1449, warranty statements, and proof of local service presence—must be submitted electronically in PDF, DOCX, or XLSX format, not exceeding 30 MB per file.
