Things to watch (6)
From the version posted Oct 13, 2026.
- Serious: Jordanian registration, plates and insurance required. Every leased vehicle needs Jordanian commercial registration, civilian plates and insurance valid under Jordanian law, which a U.S. firm without a Jordan presence may struggle to arrange.
- Serious: Maintenance network inside Jordan with fast response. You must show maintenance facilities, repair partners or mobile teams in Jordan that can meet a 24-hour replacement and 2-hour recovery response, 24/7.
- Worth checking: Work performed outside the United States. The place of performance is Zarqa and other locations in Jordan. The notice does not say how host-country taxes, currency or labor law are handled.

- Worth checking: Email address unclear. Responses go to "the Primary POC listed in Section 1", but the address in parentheses belongs to the second alternate contact, not the primary contact. Confirm where to send.
- Minor: Vehicle replacement triggers. Vehicles must be swapped when mileage passes 100,000 KM, the model year is 5 or more years old, or the same complaint recurs three times within four months, which adds fleet cost.
- Minor: Set-aside not decided. SAM.gov states no set-aside, and the notice says it will be decided after this market research. Your response may shape whether a small-business set-aside is used.
