Water, Sanitation & Irrigation Infrastructure Consulting BPA

The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) established this Master Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for Water, Sanitation & Irrigation (WSI) Infrastructure Consulting Services to support the agency's international development programs. The BPA enables MCC to obtain professional consulting services for oversight, feasibility studies, technical advisory services, and infrastructure development across multiple countries. The scope encompasses comprehensive engineering, environmental, and economic assessments related to water resource management, sanitation infrastructure investments, and irrigation project development in developing nations.

The BPA has been utilized for task orders ranging from approximately $22,000 to $6.4 million, typically with performance periods between two to five years. Prime contractors consistently include large engineering and consulting firms such as Tetra Tech, Inc., AECOM Technical Services, Stantec Consulting Services, and Hazen and Sawyer. Task orders predominantly focus on infrastructure consulting in countries like Timor-Leste, Tunisia, Mongolia, Lesotho, Niger, and Sierra Leone, with a consistent emphasis on technical due diligence, feasibility studies, and advisory services. None of the task orders employed set-aside designations, and the contracts were primarily awarded as time and materials or firm fixed-price agreements. The consistent theme across task orders is supporting MCC's mission of reducing poverty through strategic infrastructure and economic development initiatives.
