Supply of Mobile Phones (Apple and Other Commercial Models)

The US Embassy Manila, under the Department of State, is seeking to procure commercial off-the-shelf mobile phones, including Apple models and other comparable devices, for use by diplomatic personnel. The contract requires the delivery of a specified quantity of devices that meet technical and security standards suitable for official communications abroad. All equipment must be fully functional, brand new, and sourced from approved suppliers to ensure interoperability and support. Logistics are a core component, with mandatory compliance with local import regulations in the Philippines and adherence to U.S. government travel and equipment deployment protocols. The procurement is structured as a subcontract, with the requirement that vendors handle customs clearance, documentation, and timely delivery to Manila. Devices must be compatible with existing secure communication frameworks and capable of receiving necessary software updates and support throughout their service life. The response deadline for submissions is July 6, 2026, at 4:00 AM, with the opportunity posted on June 26, 2026. The North American Industry Classification System code 334220 indicates this is for the manufacturing of communications equipment, confirming that the supplier must be capable of providing commercially available hardware that aligns with federal standards for mobility and security. There is no set-aside designation, meaning all eligible entities may compete. The place of performance is explicitly Manila, with delivery and acceptance tied to the embassy’s operational needs. No point of contact is listed, so interested parties are expected to rely on standard federal procurement channels for inquiries. The contract emphasizes end-to-end supply chain reliability, regulatory compliance, and readiness for immediate deployment in a high-demand diplomatic environment.
