Nepal Community Reconstruction Program (NCRP)

The Nepal Community Reconstruction Program (NCRP) is a United States Agency for International Development (USAID) master indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract designed to support post-earthquake reconstruction and infrastructure restoration in Nepal. Established in January 2018, the contract provides a framework for rebuilding critical public infrastructure damaged by the 2015 earthquake and subsequent aftershocks. The primary focus of the vehicle is to construct and rehabilitate public facilities, with an emphasis on educational and healthcare infrastructure that will help restore normalcy and build community resilience in affected regions.

The NCRP has awarded multiple delivery orders with a consistent focus on reconstructing schools and health facilities in districts impacted by the earthquake. Task orders have ranged in value from approximately $7.4 million to $10.6 million, with performance periods typically extending 2-3 years. Prime contractors have included international and local firms such as Macro Vantage Levant DMCC and Himalayan Builders And Engineers Pvt. LTD. These task orders have consistently been firm fixed-price contracts without specific set-aside provisions, targeting infrastructure reconstruction in districts like Sindhuli and Makawanpur. The contract vehicle has a total shared ceiling of $200 million, indicating significant potential for continued reconstruction efforts through USAID's Nepal program.
