Supply of Polyethylene (PE) pipes and fittings for gas transportation and water supply systems and Polypropylene (PP) corrugated pipes for external sewerage for Kryvyi Rih

New clarification added: Dear UNOPS team, We would like to participate in the tender for the supply of gas transport pipes, and below I will forward you some initial questions for clarification.Can you confirm that it's possible to quote not all lots together, but one or more lots separately? Can we quote Lot 1 and Lot 2 with the full volume of the requested material? What's important is that the quote includes all the materials for each lot, right?Must DN315 SDR 17.6 pipes be black PE100 with the yellow band co-extruded or must it be a double-layer pipe, black inside and out with the yellow layer or entirely yellow?I've seen that DDP is required for delivery terms, which also involves the supplier at unloading procedure. Can you confirm that the supplier must arrange and organize the unloading of the goods independently, or does the unloading location provide the vehicles and personnel to unload the goods? Because we usually consider DAP delivery, where we organize and are responsible for everything (goods, loading, transport, customs, clearance), but the unloading takes place with the vehicles and equipment available at the unloading location. Naturally the pipes are 12 metres long and usually the unloading takes place either laterally with a forklift or from above with a crane which must be present at the unloading site.There are projects for Ukraine where sometimes the supply of similar products is considered as Humanitarian Aid. forniture, and I would like to ask whether this supply is also considered as Humanitarian Aid Cargo or is it a standard commercial supply?Please send us the answer when it will be possible.Thank you in advance and have a nice day.__________ANSWER__________Dear Bidder, Thank you for your interest in the tender.  Please find below the clarifications to your questions:1) Submission by lots - Yes, bidders are allowed to submit quotations for one or more lots separately.
