Vendor Requirements • A single vendor capable of delivering the full scope of services across both countries • One consolidated contract covering Nigeria and South Africa • A provider with established local presence in both jurisdictions • Demonstrated experience supporting international organisations in market entry and local compliance • Ability to act as trusted advisor and proactively guide IFDK on all required filings and regulatory actions • Capacity to support initial set‑up as well as first‑year operations, and to advise on potential future insourcing for cost efficiency • Presence in Kenya and Denmark is considered an advantage 6. Financial Proposal • Bidders shall provide a detailed price quote covering all requested services • Indicative price range of 250.000 – 400.000 DKK – this indication should be considered a guestimate as no budget has been aligned yet 7.
