This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Middle East Regional Program Office to Chemonics International, Inc. (Chemonics), a prominent international development consulting firm. The $49.2 million, single-award contract aims to develop Tunisia's tourism sector by enhancing competitiveness, increasing investment and revenue, and improving the enabling environment.
The initial solicitation was a Request for Information (RFI) that sought feedback to inform the design of a 5-year, $35-38 million tourism development activity. Key focus areas include diversifying tourism products and markets, boosting investment and receipts in cultural/adventure tourism, strengthening business associations, and developing workforce skills. The contract will also implement a small grants program of up to $10 million to support related private sector activities, innovations, and partnerships. Chemonics, as the prime contractor, will likely leverage its extensive international development expertise and local partnerships to execute a range of technical assistance, advisory services, and direct implementation in support of USAID's objectives for the Tunisian tourism industry.
