New clarification added: Question: I have a technical question regarding: Form E: No Adverse Action Confirmation Form.Can we delete text: 'and the manufacturers [insert manufacturer’s names] whose products are being offered by the Bidder' from option a.? We do not have direct contact with CDM project developers, so we can not claim their potential issues. We only have CERs from their CDM project.Yes, you can delete that part if not applicable. Other wording must not be changed.

New clarification added: Form D: Performance Statement Form requires the disclosure of confidential information from previous carbon offset transactions. As we are under NDA with our clients, such disclosure would mean breaching these NDAs. What can we do about this?

New clarification added: Question: While filling in "Section III: Returnable Bidding Forms", I am not sure whether in "Form D: Performance Statement Form I have to fill in anything else than the Name of Bidder and the Date (as marked in blue). In my view, the ordering table and the name, title, date and signature fields at the bottom will have to be completed by the purchaser (UNOPS) after having decided about placing an order.Can you please clarify what exactly the bidder has the fill in in Form D? Thank you very much.Form D is to be filled in by the bidder, to indicate references and previous contracts handled by the bidder (one per row with client company name, date of contract, etc.). There is no part on this form to be filled in by UNOPS.

New clarification added: Question: As it is mentioned the project should be generating credits for the period not prior to 2014. We have our projects who went for the verification from 2013 till 2016 and issued many credits in one go, if we check out from the excel sheet and monitoring report for the credits after 2014, it will be more than the required one in the tender. Please let me know if we can apply the project. But while cancellation, there is no such mechanism with UNFCCC to identify the serial number of the credits year wise, they will cancel the credits as per the demand and we need to consider as this project have more than sufficient credits for the period after 2014.Please let me know if this will be acceptable?If a project cannot identify the credits issued from 2014 and on, they can calculate a pro rata post 2014 amount. As an example, if a bidder has issued 210,000 CERs over the years 13, 14 and 15, the pro rata of 140,000 last issued CERs would be acceptable.
