- Description
- USAID/Afghanistan intends to competitively award a performance-based five year contract (base plus option) for the Alternative Development Program (ADP) in Afghanistan. The purpose of the project is to increase licit and commercially viable agricultural-based alternatives for rural Afghans with the goal of significantly reducing and ultimately eradicating poppy production in the more insecure and unstable southern provinces of Afghanistan (currently the 6 provinces of Farah, Nimruz, Helmand, Kandahar, Uruzgan, and Zabul). The contract will be two-fold: 1) outcomes based; and 2) payment for results. Offerors will compete with proposed solutions that meet the requirements of the contract and are tailored to an optimal technical / business approach. The goal is to contribute to the creation of full and part-time and year-round and seasonal jobs, increased sales, strengthened associations, increased exports and improved access to services to promote licit economic growth and positive alternatives to the illicit economy for farmers and non-farmers alike. The Offerors should consider revenue generation and cost recovery, anti-corruption, gender, “Afghanization” (local project ownership) and local governance as important cross-cutting issues that must be included in all programmatic elements. The Offerors are expected to provide a Performance Work Statement (PWS), performance metrics and measurement plan, Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP), and incentives (monetary or otherwise) as part of the proposal package.
