- Description
- The purpose of this amendment is to: 1. Extend the deadline for offers to February 11 at 2:00 p.m. (EST) 2. Responses to the following questions:Question 1 -- What did you mean with the "protection plate underneath the motor"? Is this in reference to an armor plate, or something else?Answer 1 -- Metal sheet to protect the undercarriage (motor, oil pan etc) from being damaged when traveling on rough terrain/roads.Question 2 -- Could I please ask how long our offer must be valid for from the closing date of the 10th February. This is particularly important if we are to quote in US Dollars because we would be exposed to exchange rate fluctuations (USD/JPY) from the 10th Feb until the day an order is confirmed. The shorter the validity, the easier it will be for us cover the exchange risk.Answer 2 – The offer is to be valid for 30 days from the closing date of the solicitation.Question 3 -- A second issue which will have a bearing on the price is whether or not the end user of the vehicle will enjoy exemption from all taxes and import duties. Answer 3 -- The agreement between ADF and the government of the Republic of Zambia the vehicle will be exempt from VAT and customs duty. Therefore the quote should be less VAT and customs.
