Version History

Version Modification Description Updated Date
Synopsis 3 Modification #1 to this RFP has been posted; please see 2 relevant documents on the synopsis page.

1) RFP Amendment No. 1
2) Kabul National Museum Hypothetical Rehousing Supplies Budget

1) The amendment clarifies several issues associated with Task II and specifies a fixed line item amount to add for rehousing furniture. This is a separate cost from the archival materials listed in item B.

2) The attached hypothetical archival rehousing budget was an early effort to try to quantify what might be needed for the archival rehousing at the National Museum. It must be understood by all that this is only a preliminary starting point for discussion. However, this list is useful in that it illustrates the potentially large scale of what may be needed. Each bidder is completely responsible for independently determining what supplies to purchase and import.
