Description

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is conducting a full and open competition to acquire the services of a qualified U.S. Contractor to implement a new education program which consists of a two-pronged approach that aims to increase access to quality and relevant education, building on past successes of increasing the number of rural girls completing basic education, and to improve skills training opportunities. The measurement of success is job placement and school completion. Thus, the program addresses Morocco’s three-fold problem of unemployed out-of-school youth, lack of relevant education and training to provide skills for employment, and high illiteracy rates. Coupled with this, the FTA with the U.S. offers Morocco a chance to transform itself and become a full and active participant in the global economy. However, the transition to a new, more open economy will require new skills, with ramifications for both rural and urban populations. Any resultant contract must include a minimum goal of 10% for small business subcontracting. The base period of performance for this contract is four years plus one option year. The range for this activity is between $28 million to $32 million. The preferred method of distributing the USAID procurement information will be through Federal Business Opportunities (www.fbo.gov). It is anticipated that the RFP will be issued on or about May 10, 2004. It is the responsibility of the recipient of this solicitation to ensure that it has been received in its entirety and USAID bears no responsibility for data error(s) resulting from downloading. All correspondence regarding this notice must be submitted in writing. NOTE: THIS NOTICE MAY HAVE POSTED ON WWW.FEDBIZOPPS.GOV ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (19-APR-2004). IT ACTUALLY APPEARED OR REAPPEARED ON THE FEDBIZOPPS SYSTEM ON 12-JUL-2004, BUT REAPPEARED IN THE FTP FEED FOR THIS POSTING DATE. PLEASE CONTACT fbo.support@gsa.gov REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
