RFQ for Goods/Services Section II: Schedule of Requirements / Terms of Reference (ToR) eSourcing reference: ITB/2019/11476 GENERAL DESCRIPTION Service description: Establishment of a Long Term Agreement (LTA) for the Provision of Vehicle Rental Services for all Regional States in Ethiopia except Somali Regional State; Ethiopia Location: All Regional States Zones and Woredas except Somali Regional State - Ethiopia Duration: Long Term Agreement (LTA) to be signed for two (2) years period with a possibility of extension for one more year based on satisfactory performance I. BACKGROUND The United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) is a self-financing organization within the United Nations Family and operates within over sixty (60) countries. It is mandated to serve people in need by expanding the ability of the United Nations, governments and other partners to manage Projects, Infrastructure and Procurement in a sustainable and efficient manner. Within these three core areas of expertise, UNOPS provides its partners with advisory, implementation and transactional services, with projects ranging from building schools and hospitals to procuring goods and services and training local personnel. UNOPS works closely with governments and communities to ensure increased economic, social and environmental sustainability for the projects we support, with a focus on developing national capacity. UNOPS Ethiopia Operational Hub (ETOH) as part of achieving its mission was created covering the three Horn of Africa countries (Ethiopia, Sudan and Djibouti). UNOPS has supported the Government of Ethiopia, UN organizations and other development partners in the country since 2009. Based in Addis Ababa, our team offers a broad range of project management, procurement and infrastructure development, and advisory services, focusing on health, agriculture, social, humanitarian and economic sectors. UNOPS Ethiopia Office anticipates to implement logistical support in the form of establishing a Long Term Agreement (LTA) for the Provision of Vehicle Rental Services for all Regional States Zones and/or Woredas in Ethiopia except Somali Regional State which UNOPS Ethiopia Office has already established for it in 2018. The LTA intends to be signed for two years period with a possibility of extension for additional one year based on satisfactory performance. The contract will be awarded to vehicle rental service providers(s) which offers the lowest, substantially compliant to pre-set Eligibility, Qualification and Technical criteria set out in this “Schedule of Requirements”. Prospect bidder shall also noted that UNOPS Ethiopia act as a Lead Agency to facilitate this LTA for its Country Office and on behalf of all other UN Agencies operating in Ethiopia. Hence, these UN Agencies may use of the LTA once contract(s) is/are awarded to vehicle rental service provider(s) as per UNOPS award criteria. II. SCOPE OF VEHICLE RENTAL SERVICE The Vehicle Rental Services includes the provision of the vehicle rental services in all Regional States Zones and Woredas in Ethiopia except Somali Regional State. The Daily Rate includes driver, fuel, insurance and any payment to the driver as further described in this “Schedule of Requirements”. During contract period, UNOPS reserves the right to increase or decrease the number of rented vehicles without changes in Daily Rate and/or terms and conditions of contract. Bidders are expected to submit their bids for all of the following LOTs: 1. LOT I: 4WD Vehicles 2. LOT II: 4WD Pick Up 3. LOT III: Mini-bus (minimum 12 seats capacity) Page 1 of 25 4. LOT IV: Midi-bus (minimum 30 seats capacity) 5. LOT V: Truck (minimum 3 ton capacity) 6. LOT VI: Truck (minimum 8 ton capacity) 7. LOT VII: Truck (10 to 12 ton Capacity) 8. LOT VIII: Sedan Car (5 Seat Automobile) The vehicles to be assigned by the supplier should be with a manufacture year of 2003 or newer. Based on the results of this competitive bidding exercise, UNOPS intends to enter into non-exclusive Long Term Agreement(s) (LTAs) with successful Bidder(s) for the provision of vehicles in support of UNOPS’ operations in Ethiopia. In the event of UNOPS signing Long Term Agreement(s), the following shall apply: 1. The LTA will be signed for two years period with a possibility of extension for additional one year based on satisfactory performance. 2. If LTA holder(s) cannot and/or repetitively fail to meet UNOPS Minimum Service Requirements anytime within the LTA duration; UNOPS has a discretion to terminate the LTA(s) and notify same to all other UN Agencies operating in Ethiopia that the LTA is/are terminated due to poor performance. 3. The LTA will be a multiple LTAs without a secondary bidding. In this regard, 3.1 Lowest Priced Substantially Compliant Offer bidders per LOT will be issued Long Term Agreements (LTAs) 3.2 A given Bidder may have one or more LTAs for LOTs it bids as per the ITB Contract Award Criteria 3.3 For a given LOT; two the “Lowest Priced Substantially Compliant Offer” bidders [i.e., Lowest Bidder One – L1 and Lowest Bidder Two – L2] will be issued LTAs. Whereas; L2 bidder will be used in the event the L1 could not meet the need. 4. The Daily Rate of the LTA will remain fixed the contract duration. Should there be a need for change in the tender daily rate due to change in fuel price; a strong evidence and confirmation on the change has to be compiled. UNOPS ETOH evaluates the situation/request and might accept an increase in the rental price of the vehicles up to a maximum of 5% of respective Daily Rate for each type of vehicle. 5. For sake of price comparisons among bidders to ensure price reasonableness; AN ESTIMATED NUMBER OF VEHICLES AND NUMBER OF EACH VEHICLES ENGAGED PER YEAR ARE ASSIGNED FOR RESPECTIVE ZONES/WOREDAS UNDER EACH REGIONAL STATE. Please note that the estimated number of vehicles and number of days a vehicle will be engaged in a year time can be less or more during the LTAs duration. These estimates may become much higher when UNOPS supposed to be engaged in humanitarian emergency interventions by its client during the LTA contract duration either in a given regional state, City Administration and/or Zone(s)/Woreda(s). III. VEHICLE HISTORY AND CERTIFICATION UNOPS has no preference to ANY MAKE OR MODEL OF THE VEHICLE as long as it fulfils the requirements in terms of passenger capacity and the requirements set forth in this ToR. Therefore, the Contractor shall provide for sample vehicle to be rented, full vehicle history and certifications shall be provided upon request during physical inspection. Prior to rental, the Contractor shall obtain security clearance from the UNDSS or UNOPS Security focal point. IV. PARTIAL QUOTATION Bidders are allowed to quote prices for one or more LOTs identified in this tender. However, bidders must offer for all lists of Zones and/or Woredas specified under each LOT(s) the bidder interested to submit bid. Evaluation will be done on LOT basis. Hence, bidders are strongly advised to quote Daily Rate for each vehicle requirements in a given LOT which it competes hence not to be DISQULIFIED from further evaluation. Page 2 of 25 V.

  • Impact of Khat Production on Household Welfare in Amhara Region of Ethiopia
    Impact of khat production on household welfare in Amhara region of Ethiopia by Hanna Lynn Ruder B.S., Kansas State University, 2016 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Agricultural Economics College of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2018 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Benjamin Schwab Copyright © Hanna Ruder 2018. Abstract Khat, a lucrative cash crop cultivated in and near the Horn of Africa, is gaining the interest of researchers around the globe. Despite its potential to provide excess income, economic opportunity, and access to technology to those who produce it, the conflicting legal status around the globe causes policy and trade disputes between countries. Research on the impact of khat production on household welfare is sparse. To address this, the purpose of this research is to determine what factors affect the decision to grow khat and subsequently determine the impact of khat production on labor, income, education expenditure, and food security. Data was extracted from a survey conducted in early 2017. A total of 365 households in the Amhara Region of Ethiopia were surveyed. We estimate the factors affecting the decision to grow khat by employing use of two logit models and one linear probability model to calculate marginal effects. We estimate the impact of khat production on labor, income, education expenditure, and food security through propensity score matching. Khat production appears to be adopted by households who are educated and apt to adopt improved technologies. These households are likely to own a donkey, own irrigation, and own more plots than a non-producing household.

  • Ethnobotany, Diverse Food Uses, Claimed Health Benefits And
    Shewayrga and Sopade Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine 2011, 7:19 http://www.ethnobiomed.com/content/7/1/19 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Ethnobotany, diverse food uses, claimed health benefits and implications on conservation of barley landraces in North Eastern Ethiopia highlands Hailemichael Shewayrga1* and Peter A Sopade2,3 Abstract Background: Barley is the number one food crop in the highland parts of North Eastern Ethiopia produced by subsistence farmers grown as landraces. Information on the ethnobotany, food utilization and maintenance of barley landraces is valuable to design and plan germplasm conservation strategies as well as to improve food utilization of barley. Methods: A study, involving field visits and household interviews, was conducted in three administrative zones. Eleven districts from the three zones, five kebeles in each district and five households from each kebele were visited to gather information on the ethnobotany, the utilization of barley and how barley end-uses influence the maintenance of landrace diversity. Results: According to farmers, barley is the “king of crops” and it is put for diverse uses with more than 20 types of barley dishes and beverages reportedly prepared in the study area. The products are prepared from either boiled/roasted whole grain, raw- and roasted-milled grain, or cracked grain as main, side, ceremonial, and recuperating dishes. The various barley traditional foods have perceived qualities and health benefits by the farmers. Fifteen diverse barley landraces were reported by farmers, and the ethnobotany of the landraces reflects key quantitative and qualitative traits. Some landraces that are preferred for their culinary qualities are being marginalized due to moisture shortage and soil degradation.

Box.1020, Jigjiga, Ethiopia. 2Lecturer at Jigjiga university, College of Veterinary Medicine, Jigjiga University, P.O. Box.1020, Jigjiga, Ethiopia. [email protected] Abstract: Rabies is a viral disease of all warm blooded animals, which causes acute fatal encephalitis, with almost 100% case fatality rate. It is caused by rabies virus (genus Lyssa virus) which is mainly transmitted by rabid animal bites. This disease occurs in more than 150 countries and territories and about 55,000 people die of rabies every year, mostly in developing world despite that it is preventable disease by vaccination. Ethiopia is highly endemic for rabies; yet, a nationwide data on rabies has not been gathered to reveal the actual magnitude of the problem and public awareness levels. With a conviction that a handful of works on public knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) in rabies be done to plan, execute any control and/or eradication programs, this study was conducted in Injibara town and its surroundings from November, 2015 to April, 2016 to assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) on rabies and related factors. The design was: ccommunity-based retrospective, quantitative study design to assess the KAP on rabies and related factors. The entire three kebeles of the town and its surrounding rural kebeles were considered in the study.

  • Land Use Patterns and Its Implication for Climate Change: the Case of Gamo Gofa, Southern Ethiopia
    Defaru Debebe. et al., IJSRR 2013, 2(3), 155-173 Research article Available online www.ijsrr.org ISSN: 2279–0543 International Journal of Scientific Research and Reviews Land Use Patterns and its Implication for Climate Change: The Case of Gamo Gofa, Southern Ethiopia Defaru Debebe* and Tuma Ayele Arba Minch University P.O.Box 21, Arba Minch, Ethiopia ABSTRACT Land is one of three major factors of production in classical economics (along with labor and capital) and an essential input for housing and crop production. Land use is the backbone of agriculture and it provides substantial economic and social benefits. Assessing past-to present land use patterns associated with the crop production helps to understand which climatic effects might arise due to expanding crop cultivation. This study was conducted to evaluate the land use pattern and its implication for climate change in Gamo Gofa, Southern Ethiopia. For evaluation, correlation and time series trend analysis were used. Results revealed that a significant reduction in cultivable land, which was converted into cropland and might increase deforestation and greenhouse gas emission, in turn induce climate change. The correlation between cropland and fertile (cultivable) land (r=0.22674) in 2005 improved to (r=0.75734) in 2012 indicating major shift of fertile land to cropland in seven years interval. On other side, twelve years (1987-1999 and 2000-2011) average maximum temperature difference in Gamo Gafa was increased 0.425oC with standard deviation 0.331. It is statistically significant (t =1.284, alpha=0.10) at 10% level of error. Moreover, the spatial differences in climate change are likely to imply a heterogeneous pattern of land use responses.

  • Army Worm Infestation in SNNP and Oromia Regions As of 24 May
    Army worm infestation in SNNP and Oromia Regions As of 24 May, some 8,368 hectares of belg cropland was reportedly destroyed by army worms in Wolayita zone of SNNPR - an area that suffered from late onset of the 2013 belg rains and subsequent heavy rains that damaged belg crops. The damage caused by the army worms will further reduce the expected harvest this season. Similar incidents were also reported from Boricha, Bona Zuria, Dara, Dale, Hawassa Zuria and Loko Abaya woredas of Sidama zone; Loma and Mareka woredas of Dawro zone (SNNPR), as well as from drought prone areas of East and West Hararge zones of Oromia Region; and quickly spreading to neighbouring areas. In Boricha woreda, for example, more than 655 hectares of belg cropland was destroyed in the course of one week, this is indicative of the speed that damage is being caused. Immediate distribution of spraying containers and chemicals to the farmers is required to prevent further loss of belg crops. For more information, contact: [email protected] Health Update The number of meningitis cases has gradually declined since the outbreak was declared in January. To date, 1,371 cases were reported from 24 woredas in five zones of SNNP and Oromia Regions. The Government, with support from health partners, is conducting a reactive vaccination in the affected areas, with 1, 678,220 people vaccinated so far. Next week, the number of people vaccinated during the Addis Ababa City Administration meningitis vaccination campaign, conducted from 20 to 26 May, will be released. Meanwhile, the number of kebeles reporting cases of Yellow Fever in South Ari, Benatsemay and Selmago woredas of South Omo zone, SNNPR, increased.
