Overview:

In order to support its projects and partners operations, as well as its own needs, UNDP Moldova is procuring fairly large quantities of IT equipment (desktop computers, notebooks, monitors, UPSs) and is exploring the possibility of engaging multiple suppliers on a recurrent basis, as needs arise, in order to ensure best value for UNDP and access to most current technology. UNDP Moldova envisages entering into a Long-Term Agreement (LTA) with multiple qualified suppliers of IT equipment to cover the needs of the UNDP Moldova office in Chisinau and its various funded Projects in Chisinau and other regions of Moldova, as well as of the Offices of other UN Agencies, such as UN Women, UNFPA, UNODC, FAO, OHCHR, ILO, WHO and others. UNDP Moldova shall enter into agreement with the successful bidders for an initial period of one (1) year with the option to extend for additional two (2) years, subject to a satisfactory performance, and shall place orders on a recurrent basis, as needs arise.

The Technical Specifications and bidding details are presented in the Invitation to Bid (ItB) document and its Annexes.
