Personnel Transport Support - Provision of Self Drive Hire Vehicles and Driven Coaches - Oman

The Authority has a requirement for the provision of White Fleet vehicles - including Coaches - in multiple locations throughout Oman. The proposed contract shall be for a period of One (1) year commencing 01 July 2018 and ending 30 June 2019 with the option to extend for up to 6 months.

This requirement has been broken down into a total of 9 Lots based on location: • Lot 1 Duqm • Lot 2 Mussanah • Lot 3 RAO Shafa Camp • Lot 4 RAFO Thummrait Camp • Lot 5 Murtafaat Al Matar • Lot 6 Muscat Airport • Lot 7 Adam • Lot 8 Ras Bin Tawt • Lot 9 All Locations

It is the Authority's aspiration to place one contract for all requirements, however it is recognised that better value for money may be achieved by placing contracts with different companies for the above Lots. Expressions Of Interest (EOIs) can therefore be submitted for all Lots or for individual Lots. If a company wishes to Bid for the entire requirement they should use 'Lot 9 - All Locations'.

The Authority would be happy to consider company's acting alone or working together in a partnering or joint venture arrangement.

Within a 12 month period it is estimated that a total of approximately 322 hire vehicles shall be required, although these figures may fluctuate in accordance with demand.

EOIs must clearly state which Lots a company is expressing an interest in and must contain details of your company to include the following information: • Company point of contact details for future correspondence (e-mail, telephone, postal address, web site) • Company registration details

Please note only those who pass the PQQ shall be invited to tender (PQQ Access Code SS487893Q3).
