About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded a $25.0 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to Chemonics International, Inc. to implement the Heshimu Bahari ("Respect the Ocean") marine conservation activity in Tanzania. The contract, which commenced August 17, 2022, and is scheduled for completion by March 25, 2025, aims to enhance ecological resilience and productivity in high marine biodiversity areas by strengthening marine protected areas and improving wild-caught fisheries management. The activity originated from a USAID Tanzania Mission Request for Information posted in March 2020, which sought to identify approaches for a potential $5–15 million marine biodiversity conservation initiative. Chemonics, a prominent international development consulting firm headquartered in Washington, D.C., specializes in executing complex, multi-year development programs across more than 70 countries and has a substantial track record implementing large USAID initiatives across diverse sectors including environmental conservation and economic growth.

Chemonics has subcontracted key aspects of the activity to multiple partners, including Aqua-Farms Organization for artisanal fishing patterns mapping surveys; Damax Solutions CO. LIMITED for socioeconomic assessments in marine biodiversity contexts; and Mwambao Coastal Community Network Tanzania for artisanal fishing pattern mapping activities. These subcontracts, awarded between September and December 2023, reflect a localized implementation strategy that leverages both international technical expertise and community-based organizations to support Tanzania's marine resource management objectives. The contract carries no small business set-aside designation and was terminated for convenience, consistent with USAID's approach of maintaining flexibility in development program implementation.
