New clarification added: To be frank, to request specific brands for certain items does not make this an open tender. For example, the binoculars requested, i.e. the Olympus 118760 Trooper 10x50 DPS 1, are not a high-tech item that requires extensive training, not at all. There are standard easy-to-use, user-friendly, not training necessary,10x50 binoculars on the market that function the same as the Olympus and are as good if not better, so we see no reason why an alternative option should not be allowed for something such as this. Thank you.Response: Further to the explanation provided in the Particular section of the ITB, training on use of equipment is not the only reason for specifying certain brands in the tender, but also for standardization purposes and to ensure uniformity with equipment’s already supplied, and used, by the Diplomatic Police, across their various units.

New clarification added: Will alternative brands that are the same or better be considered? For example, would a product and brand comparable to or better than 'Olympus DPS 10x50 ruggedised binoculars' be accepted?

The training was provided for a specific brand of equipment. Most of the items included in ITB/2022/38104 are a duplication of the same kit provide under the other procurement process, which the DP were trained on using and maintaining. They have also been supplied with training material to allow continual internal training based around these specific equipment’s. Furthermore, it is important to procure the same exact equipment for standardisation purposes to ensure parity across DP units, carrying the same exact equipment and following the same SOPs. Please refer to the revised ITB_Section_II_Schedule of Requirements_Amendment1 published as part of Amendment Rev1 for the final Technical Specifications for Goods. Submissions will be evaluated based on the criteria specified under the Criteria tab of the ITB.
