SECTION 2: SCOPE OF WORK (SOW) AND DELIVERABLES SCHEDULE

Below is the SOW for the RFP. For this RFP, the term “Subcontractor” means the successful offeror

who is awarded the subcontract as a result of this RFP.

2.1 Program Overview

The FIRMS Project is a 4 years economic growth project funded by USAID and implemented by

Chemonics that started in May 2009. The objective of the Project is to develop dynamic, internationally

competitive business sector in Pakistan that is increasing exports, employing more people and producing

higher value added products and services.

In the international trade of marble and granite has almost doubled in the past 10 years, with a forecast of

consistent growth of around 5% per annum in the future. In 2011-12, global marble and granite exports

reached USD 100 billion, with China, Italy, Germany, Turkey and India currently the top 5 exporters.

Pakistan has recorded an encouraging growth trend in the last five years (from $23 million in 2005-2006

to about $80 million in 2010-11). However, despite the upward trend, Pakistan has not been able to

capture a significant share of growing international market.

The majority of Pakistan‘s marble and granite exports are in raw form, signifying that most of the local

processors are unable to cut and polish according to international standards. The current quarry and

processing practices are major limiting factors and it is difficult for miners/processors to get a fair value

of products manufactured, in local and international markets. In addition, local processors are unable to

market their products effectively due to limited knowledge of global trends and emerging markets.

Estimated number of processing units alone is approximately 2000-2500.

USAID Firms project has designed a holistic program comprising of various interventions in many

operational areas, where beneficiary units require technical assistance. One of the critical factor hindering

growth is lack of product and process standardization and as a result marble and granite units waste

important resources (raw material, labour, utilities and time). The overall impact is the lack of cost

competitiveness, which effects local and export sales.

For product and process standardization and for quality improvement, ISO 9001:2008 certification is

considered a prerequisite worldwide. ISO 9001:2008 certification is considered the symbol of product and

process standardization across the globe and conveys the image of quality product. That is why in

Pakistan and abroad, customers / organizations prefer to deal with businesses having ISO 9001:2008

certification. That is why; the quality conscious companies always strive hard to attain this certification.

With this aim, USAID Firms Project brought two short term consultants (one to work on ISO 9001:2008

standards implementation and second for process flow standardization) to assist the beneficiary units in

developing systems and documentation, to comply with the requirements of certification. While the

preparatory work is ongoing, the stage has come, where some certification agency / body should come on

board for final audit of the beneficiary units and in turn issue certification after completing all formalities.

2.2 Scope of Work

This activity is to being implemented in two phases, 1) to hire consultants to assist the processing units

The parties hereto further understand and agree that USAID, in reserving any or all of the foregoing approval rights, has acted solely as a financing entity to assure the proper use of United States Government funds, and that any decision by USAID to exercise or refrain from exercising these approval rights shall be made as a financier in the course of financing this project and shall not be construed as making USAID a party to the subcontract.

52.209-5 CERTIFICATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (MAY 2008)

(a)(1) The Offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that—

(i) The Offeror and/or any of its Principals—

(A) Are □ are not □ presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for

the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

(B) Have □ have not □, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil

judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with

obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public (Federal, state, or local) contract or

subcontract; violation of Federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or

commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making

false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property;

(C) Are □ are not □ presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a

governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(B) of

this provision;

(D) Have □, have not □, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent

Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(1) Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(i) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been

assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial

challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally

determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(ii) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer

has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not

delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(2) Examples.

(i) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. § 6212, which

entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a

delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court

review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal

rights.

(ii) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and

the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. § 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a

hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the

Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the

taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no

prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final

tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability

until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(iii) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. § 6159. The

taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The

taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full

payment.

(iv) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because

enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

(ii) The Offeror has o has not o, within a three-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts

terminated for default by any Federal agency.

(2) ―Principal,‖ for the purposes of this certification, means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a

person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general

RFP No. FIRMS RFP 14-121 Page 30 of 35

manager; plant manager; head of a subsidiary, division, or business segment; and similar positions).

This Certification Concerns a Matter Within the Jurisdiction of an Agency of the United States and the

Making of a False, Fictitious, or Fraudulent Certification May Render the Maker Subject to Prosecution

Under Section 1001, Title 18, United States Code.

(b) The Offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if, at any time prior to

contract award, the Offeror learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become

erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision exists will not necessarily result

in withholding of an award under this solicitation. However, the certification will be considered in

connection with a determination of the Offeror‘s responsibility. Failure of the Offeror to furnish a

certification or provide such additional information as requested by the Contracting Officer may render

the Offeror non-responsible.

(d) Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records

in order to render, in good faith, the certification required by paragraph (a) of this provision. The

knowledge and information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a

prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.

(e) The certification in paragraph (a) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which

reliance was placed when making award. If it is later determined that the Offeror knowingly rendered an

erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the Contracting Officer

may terminate the contract resulting from this solicitation for default.
