Title : FWA for Hotel Facilities and Services for Workshops in Paraguay
Procurement No. : 100012917
Process : RFP
Description : Global Green Growth Institute in Paraguay invites all eligible hotels to submit their proposals for the Provision of Hotel Facilities and Services for Workshops, Conferences in Paraguay under a Frame Work Agreement spanning a period of 03 years. GGGI estimates that it undertakes approximately thirty-six events in the country annually, with sizes varying widely from small group meetings (10-20 participants) to large events (up to 100 participants or more).


PROJECT BACKGROUND:
Name: FWA for Hotel facilities and services for workshops
Date: May 2025
Location: Asunción, Paraguay

The purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to contract two Hotel Companies, which is hereunder referred to as the “Service Provider,” to support and assist in organizing and coordinating events across the Paraguay Program and the different Projects in the country.

GGGI estimates that it undertakes approximately thirty-six events in the country annually, with sizes varying widely from small group meetings (10-20 participants) to large events (up to 100 participants or more).

As a result of this RFP, GGGI plans to award a maximum of two Service Providers through a Framework Agreement (FWA). While the FWA shall not guarantee any actual or estimated volume of services, the Sub-Order (SO) to be issued later shall make a commercial commitment. GGGI will issue a minimum of one SO per service provider. GGGI has the discretion of awarding additional SOs depending on performance, especially the availability of the FWA service provider.

GGGI anticipates that the FWA will be effective starting July 2025. A designated focal point, hereunder referred to as the “Events Focal Point,” will oversee the coordination process with the Service Provider(s) and the planning and confirmation of events.

The Framework Agreements may be signed for up to three years, starting with a one-year agreement and with an option of extension based on the satisfactory performance of the Service Provider. The prices submitted by the successful bidder during the RFP shall be valid for one year under the initial duration of the FWA. When GGGI opts for the 2nd and perhaps 3rd year extension, the FWA Service Provider may either confirm the same price or increase their unit prices based on Paraguay's CPI (Consumer Price Index) or Inflation Index.

1) Objectives

Generate a Framework Agreement (FWA) with hotels in Asunción, which will offer us meeting rooms, catering services, audiovisual equipment, and other complementary services required for our project’s conferences, meetings, seminars, workshops, and other events, hereunder referred to as the “Events”. The purpose of this Contract is to agree with two Service Providers that could offer the needed services for our events and meetings.
