- Description
- USAID Rwanda is seeking to put in place a blanket purchase agreement (BPA) between one or more firms that would allow USAID, at a future date, to contract simply and quickly with this firm(s) to provide services. The BPA, in and of itself, does not directly or automatically provide funding to the winning firm(s). The competition for the BPA allows any and all firms interested to submit their proposals to USAID describing how their firm is capable and qualified to perform the duties outlined in the BPA. The winning firm(s) would then have signed agreement with USAID through which future contracts could be let easily. For example, one of the tasks described in the BPA is for event planning. An interested firm with capabilities in event planning could compete for the BPA. If successful, the firm would then be able to be contacted by USAID at relatively short notice to organize and prepare a workshop or seminar. The same situation follows for firms interested and having capabilities in the other three core areas described in the BPA: Economic Analyses, Evaluation and Strategy Development, and Coordination. The combined value of all orders placed will not exceed $2,500,000 over the 5-year maximum period of this BPA. USAID is encouraging interested Rwandan and East African firms to participate in this call for proposals. USAID believes that local firms’ advantage of local knowledge, ability to respond quickly, and reasonable budget should allow them to compete for this BPA. Partnerships between local firms and international firms which can provide a unique set of skills could also be advantageous. For those firms interested, USAID will hold a pre-proposal conference at USAID/Kigali at 0900 on August 20, 2008. At this conference any and all questions will be answered about this procurement. All interested parties MUST contact Emerithe Kayitesi (ekayitesi@usaid.gov or +250 596800x2824) with a copy to Aster Kebede (askebede@usaid.gov) by August 18, 2008 to let USAID know who will be coming to the conference on the 21st. Persons who do not contact USAID by August 18 will not be allowed to attend the pre-solicitation conference on August 20th.
