The USAID Microeconomic Foundations for Growth Master Indefinite Quantity Contract (IDIQ) is designed to support microeconomic reform and economic development initiatives in Central Asia. The contract vehicle facilitates technical assistance and consulting services aimed at strengthening businesses, infrastructure, and trade facilitation. Its primary objectives include promoting economic growth, reducing poverty, transitioning countries from aid to trade, developing competitive markets, and expanding private sector capabilities. The contract enables USAID to procure targeted technical assistance through structured, flexible task order mechanisms that support comprehensive economic development strategies.

The available task order data demonstrates the vehicle's focus on business growth initiatives, with the Business Growth Initiative (BGI) delivery order representing a typical engagement. This specific task order, valued at approximately $20 million with nearly $15.4 million obligated, sought to increase productivity, investment, employment, and market share for non-agricultural and non-extractive value chains. The task order was designed to elevate annual per capita GDP growth rates and broaden income distribution. The contract was not set aside for any specific socioeconomic category, indicating open competition among prime contractors. The delivery order had a performance period from August 2014 to June 2018, reflecting the multi-year nature of USAID's economic development interventions in the region.
