About this award
The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Political Military Affairs awarded a $4.1 million firm fixed-price definitive contract to Didar Asia General Trading LLC on September 30, 2024, for construction of a dining facility, multipurpose warehouse, and training sheds at the Zambia Peace Operations Training Center in Lusaka. The project scope includes comprehensive construction services with integration of renewable energy systems—specifically solar power with energy storage and grid backup capability—along with energy-efficient building materials throughout. The contractor is also responsible for providing operator training on the solar equipment and delivering a recommended maintenance plan. The contract is scheduled for completion by July 1, 2026, with no small business set-aside designation, despite the originating pre-solicitation notice having indicated a small business set-aside.
Didar Asia General Trading LLC, a for-profit limited liability company, brings relevant experience in international construction for U.S. government diplomatic and peace operations facilities across Africa. The company has demonstrated expertise in complex construction projects incorporating specialized infrastructure requirements, including previous work on diplomatic facilities in Senegal and Niger. This contract advances the State Department's investment in peace operations training capacity in Southern Africa and reflects the broader commitment to supporting international security cooperation through improved institutional infrastructure.
