The Monitoring & Evaluation Services for Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI) Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is a multiple-award contract administered by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for conducting comprehensive monitoring, evaluation, and performance assessment services. The contract enables USAID to efficiently procure evaluation and learning services supporting international development programs across Caribbean Basin countries. Its primary purpose is to provide Washington and regional missions with detailed assessments of program effectiveness, impact, and sustainability of implementing activities under the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative.

The contract has consistently awarded task orders ranging from $123,000 to $318,916, typically lasting between three to six months, with performance locations spanning multiple Caribbean nations including the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Guyana, and Barbados. Two primary contractors have been prominent: Social Impact Inc. (a woman-owned small business) and Dexis Consulting Group, both performing evaluations of youth programs, anti-corruption initiatives, and regional security projects. Task orders have been predominantly firm fixed-price, with some set aside for total small businesses, and focused on mid-term and final performance evaluations of specific development programs. The major program code consistently used is "Monitoring and Evaluation Services for CBSI", indicating a specialized focus on assessing strategic initiatives in the Caribbean region. The contract vehicle demonstrates USAID's commitment to systematic, independent evaluation of its international development investments.
