The design review period will be 5 (Five) months. 4. The Uganda National Roads Authority now invites eligible consulting firms ("Consultants") to indicate their interest in providing the Services. Interested Consultants should provide information demonstrating that they have the required qualifications and relevant experience to perform the Services. The short listing criteria are: eligibility, organizational setup, experience in similar assignments, experience in similar conditions and availability of appropriate skills among staff.
