What this contract is for

Mission Nairobi (managed by the Human Resources Office) requires legal counsel services with an expertise in employment law who is certified to practice in the following countries: Mogadishu, Seychelles, and Kenya. This should be a retainer/ BPA arrangement where we pay for services as they are used, with a minimum one-year commitment. The U.S. Government intends to award a contract/purchase order/Blanket Purchase agreement (BPA) to the responsible company submitting an acceptable offer at the lowest price. We intend to award a contract/purchase order/BPA based on initial proposals, without holding discussions, although we may hold discussions with companies in the competitive range if there is a need to do so.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
