*Amendment 3*
This is the final amendment to this solicitation and the purpose is to clarify the certification requirement:
The classification certificates are required in the Agreement of Defense and Cooperation between the Kingdom of Spain and the United States of America. The classification certificates obtained by contractors IAW Spanish Ley de Contractors del Sector Público, provides financial and technical assurance about the company that holds them, so it is a benefit for the Government, and assures that the company is technically competent and financially liable. As stated in the solicitation, only the classification certificate holder can perform the works associated to the classificate. The oversight of classified company personnel on other companies’ work does not relieve from this requirement, and has shown poor results and caused safety incidents in the past. Furthermore, waivers of this requirement for subcontractors can NOT be considered.

This amendment is to change the bid due date to 8 July 2025. Additionally, the questions due date has changed to 18 June 2025.
No other changes have been made with this amendment. All previous terms, conditions, and changes remain in effect.
