CALL FOR EXPRESSION OF INTEREST Restricted Procedure – Supply of IT Equipment Project: SECOND LIFE AID 013244/10/9
CIFA ONLUSAbout This Role
This is a procurement opportunity, not a standard employment role. CIFA ONLUS, an Italian NGO operating in Ethiopia under an AICS-funded project, is seeking qualified companies to supply specific IT hardware. The restricted procedure means only pre-qualified firms will be invited to bid, making this a strategic chance for established IT suppliers to secure a donor-funded contract.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The call seeks firms with a valid business license, TIN certificate, and a proven track record in supplying IT equipment. The requirement for "relevant references" and "basic financial information" implies the employer values reliability and experience with similar institutional or donor-funded projects. They are likely prioritizing established vendors who can demonstrate capacity to deliver and comply with PRAG procurement rules.
How to Approach This Application
Your expression of interest must be concise and professional. Emphasize your company’s experience supplying IT equipment to NGOs, government agencies, or international organizations—particularly if you have worked with Italian or AICS-funded projects. Include clear proof of registration in Ethiopia, a brief company profile highlighting your technical capability, and at least 2-3 relevant reference contracts with contact details. Avoid generic marketing language; focus on demonstrating your ability to meet delivery timelines and warranty requirements.
Who This Role Suits
This role is best suited for established IT supply companies in Addis Ababa with a track record in donor-funded procurement. Given the restricted procedure, competition will be moderate but limited to firms that meet strict pre-qualification criteria.
