 BACK GROUND INFORMATION

Introduction: There is a shortage of accommodation for UNDP international staff

(FTA, TA, UNV and IC contract holders). Therefore, UNDP senior management has
decided to hire a vendor to supply and install 4 @40’ and 8@20’ accommodation
containers with all associated works to use them as accommodation. These
accommodation containers will be furnished with all equipment such A/Cs, lights,
sockets, doors, windows and with living facilities.

Aim; The aim of this report is to detail the construction/civil work to enable the
Contractor to submit a technically compliant tender to the Authority.

Reconnaissance details; The Contractor is responsible for conducting an accurate

survey of the site to determine the natural contours, invert levels for all buildings
and any existing services than those provided.

Location; The proposed tasks are located inside of UNOCA compound behind of the
prefab containers for UNDP offices, Kabul province.

Technical Question/query; If there is any enquiry or any one has technical question,
please contact UNDP procurement colleagues.

Time/Duration: Total time for completion of the project estimated 60 calendar days
(2 months).
