Request for Information (RFI)/Sources Sought: 191NLE23N0003 INL/Haiti Heavy Equipment The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is an instrumental leader in the development of policies and programs to combat international narcotics and crime. INL programs support two of the Department of States' strategic goals: (1) to reduce the entry of illegal drugs into the United States; and (2) to minimize the impact of international crime on the United States and its citizens. One of the many ways to effectively meet these goals is to partner with allied governments both directly and indirectly to promote the modernization of and support the enforcement operations of their foreign criminal justice systems and law enforcement agencies. DESCRIPTION The International Narcotics Affairs Section (INL - U.S. Embassy, Port-au-Prince) requires four (4) heavy vehicles, as provided in the specifications below. The vehicles & equipment will enhance security and facilitate the ability of the Haitian National Police (HNP) to remove major obstacles and roadblocks installed by gangs in Port-au-Prince and outlying areas. This support will assist both the US and Haitian Governments’ efforts towards confronting violent gangs in Haiti. In addition to supplying and delivering the vehicles and trailer, the contractor shall provide necessary parts to ensure that maintenance is possible in Haiti. The heavy vehicles will be used by HNP specialized units in counter-gang operations and patrols in support of national security missions, including anti-kidnapping operations. The vehicles will operate in extremely challenging environments, to include unpaved roads with large potholes and under small arms fire from gangs. The contractor shall provide all required labor, personnel, management, materials & equipment to supply INL Port-au-Prince/HNP with four (4) heavy vehicles and shall ensure that any required maintenance/warranty/guarantee services are available throughout Haiti.
