RFQ no. PR16064300 - GCC Spec 4x4 SUV for Motor Pool

The US Embassy Muscat, under the Department of State, is soliciting offers for the purchase of a single brand new 4-wheel drive SUV meeting GCC specifications through a firm fixed price procurement under solicitation number PR16064300. The vehicle must be a full-size SUV with left-hand drive, a turbocharged petrol engine of at least 2.3 liters, a 10-speed automatic transmission, a minimum seating capacity of seven passengers, and must include rear differential lock, 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control, and dual-zone air conditioning. The vehicle must be new, in GCC market specification, and must be delivered to Muscat, Oman, on an FOB destination basis. The contract demands an authorized local service presence within Oman with a certified maintenance facility, 24/7 on-road emergency service coverage with a dedicated point of contact, and a minimum five-year or 100,000 km warranty covering both parts and labor. Proposals must be submitted electronically by June 30, 2026, to MuscatProcurement@state.gov in approved formats under 30 MB per file and must be in English. The solicitation requires detailed compliance with a range of FAR and DOSAR clauses, including whistleblower protections, personal identity verification, SAM and CAGE code maintenance, and representation of the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and IRS Form W-14 for tax compliance. Offerors must be registered in SAM, not appear on any exclusion lists, and certify against trafficking in persons. Payment will be made in Omani Rial (OMR) via the Financial Management Office at Jamiat Al Dowal Al Arabiya, and all invoices must list VAT as a separate item and comply with FAR 32.905(e). Evaluation is strictly based on technical acceptability through mandatory pass/fail gates—failure to meet local service, warranty, or emergency service requirements disqualifies an offer—and award will go to the lowest priced, acceptable, and responsible offeror. The government reserves the right to reject unreasonably low or high bids. Performance is subject to fund availability through September 30 of the current year, with any obligations beyond that date contingent on additional appropriations. All contract modifications and official communications must be in writing and directed through the Contracting Officer, and contractors must comply fully with Omani laws, regulations, and licensing requirements.
